Based on our experience in various industries and according to different business needs, VeChain has summarized the most frequently used DCPs to help clients manage process design easily. Each DCP contains the basic information and customized information. Basic information cannot be changed by default in the system; customized information can be edited.

The newly created DCP will appear in the menu bar on the left. And you can adjust the sequence by dragging and dropping.

• Data Collection Point: If you need to re-designate a DCP, you can select the [Data Collection Point] and delete all the DCUs in it and start your customization. You can save it as a new DCP template.

Customized DCP

Since each enterprise has its own business model, the business data to be collected will also be different, which results in the different content of DCPs.

Based on the general DCP templates, the admin can adjust the DCUs in the custom information, save the editted DCP as a new template and use it as your own DCP template in the future.

After the template is created, you need to exit the current DCP, enter the process page to complete the data synchronization, and then re-enter the [Details] page to view your customized DCP on the left menu bar.

When creating a new DCP, you can directly choose the DCP template in the list.
