Hi
In Current version of EPF , we have Activity Entry State & Exit State
shown when the WBS is created for either a Capability Pattern or a
Delivery Process. This is good. Now I have the follwoing Queries:
1) Why these two entries are manual entries and not allowed to select a
Outcomes, Tasks etc. This is more important when I use outcomes to define
the state of workproducts and when I need to select them as entry and exit
states.
2) For extended method elements the activity states are not allowed to
change, the same as in Dependency field too. These two parameters needs to
be allowed to over-ride, when we finally create the deployable delivery
process.

Hello.
Entry and Exit State are indeed currently represented only as string
attributes of the work product descriptor. Original plans included to
provide state-transition models for work products, which we had to cut and
reduce to these string attributes for time and resource reasons. We still
would like to add a more complete solution as specified in our SPEM2
submission, which provides links to complete state models. See the section
on Process Behavior in the spec for more details.
I also agree that a proper solution needs to allow to override the states
for dynamically linked patterns. Regard our current solutions as an
intermediate step towards a more complete one.

Hi, I fully agree on that. But I have another comment; Are these
attributes described in the SPEM 2.0 specification (recently approved)??
Can we consider these attributes as an extension to SPEM 2.0?
Regards,
Aitor.
