Unconfigured Process template

Use the Unconfigured Process template if your project area will consume the process of another project area.

A project area can share its process so that other project areas can use that process rather than maintain their own process. This sharing feature allows you to centralize process in one project area. When you update the process in the sharing project area, all project areas that consume that process use the updated process.

When you create a project area, you must specify a process template. However, if your new project area will consume the process of another project area, you can specify the Unconfigured Process template, which contains no timelines, iterations, roles, configured permissions, configured operation behavior, and work item types.
