Business Process Types

A Business Process Type is a collection of configuration settings describing how your organization works with its content, both before and during publishing.

Business Process Types reside in a Publication. Typically, all publishable Publications in a BluePrint structure have the same Business Process Type. And because most Content Manager instances contain one BluePrint structure, it follows that you normally only need to create one Business Process Type overall.

That said, you can create multiple Business Process Types in your system, and even within one Publication. But a publishable Publication must select exactly one of those Business Process Types to use.
