You can create your own process to define a specific way for a team to work. For example, a build manager for a team working on a GUI project creates a process called GUI Process. This process contains a custom purpose called Beta Test with a corresponding process rule called Beta Test. The process rule defines a new level of testing for the beta release. The build manager uses the new Beta Test process rule to perform builds to prepare for the team beta test release, and the process rule can only be found in the new process, GUI Process.

The process command supports these subcommands.
