Specifies a set of the custom process attributes to pass to a subprocess at runtime.
You can share the parent process's variables with the subprocess if the subprocess uses the same data.
The subprocess can have its own data only within the subprocess, or it can share its data with the parent process. For example, a subprocess can access the data of the parent process, such as the reviewer name and review completion date.

This sub process will share custom attributes with parent process
|
- Definition:
- Allows the sub process to share custom attributes with the parent process.
- Allowed Values:
- Selected - The sub process shares custom attributes with the
parent process.
- Deselected - Only the sub process uses custom attributes.
If you are using a parent and sub process that use different form types —
for example, an AgileForms parent process with a SharePoint ListForm sub
process — the processes cannot share custom attributes because the schemas
are different. You must deselect this option, and map the custom attributes in
this window.
- Default Value:
- Selected
