If a custom process instance naming convention uses a variable based on a value from a form control,
it is recommended to set the form control as Required on the eForm.
If a custom process instance naming convention is defined using one or more
process data variables,
and the value for all the variables is null, instead of showing a blank process
instance name, the default process instance name is used.
How to Start
