System Data Toolkit
The System Data Toolkit is a toolkit supplied by default with an IBPM installation. The artifacts contained within are assured to be present in all IBPM environments. This toolkit is automatically associated with all Process Applications. Importantly, since these services are provided with the product, they are fully supported by IBM.
IBM Supplied Business Process Definitions
Business Process Definitions are BPDs that are included in the System Data Toolkit.

IBM Supplied Human Services
Human Services are services that are supplied with the System Data Toolkit that can be used in solutions anywhere a Human Service is needed.
Default Human Service
When an activity is added to a BPD, it is initially associated with a Human Service called Default Human Service found in the System Data Toolkit. The details of this task look as follows:
When shown to the user, it looks like:
The Coach shows some of the primary details of the Task/Activity that is currently running.
lsw Conditional Activity Selection Coach
The purpose of this Human Service is to present the end user with a tree structured interface that describes which activities can be skipped and which must be executed. In IBPM, activities can be flagged as conditional which means that they need not execute. This Human Service interrogates the process definition and determines the list of activities which are flagged as conditional. For each of these activities a check box marker is show beside the name of the activity. The user can then select which activities to execute and which to skip.
For example, look at the following BPD:
Here we see three conditional activities. The first Activity in the BPD as a whole is an invocation of the lsw Conditional Activity Selection Coach Human Service. The visual appearance of this will look as follows:
The Templates allow us to save selections of which activities are selected and which aren't so that we can re-use those templates in the future.
