- Enable Enhanced Process Links
-
Enables the client to use enhanced process links.
If checked, the process item (that is, the item specified as the reason for making a given set of changes) is distinguished
from the task that represents the act of making the associated changes in a particular view. Changes are linked to the process
item indirectly, through a workspace (check-in) change package which is automatically created by the client.
If unchecked, standard links are used where the source of a process link is itself a process item. That is, if a given item
is specified as the reason for a change, then process links are created directly from that process item to each changed file
or folder.
