Defining the Process Categories
APQC proposes standard repositories of business processes specific to each major activity sector.

A process category defines a group of processes. It is linked to a Process Map or higher level Process Category. It regroups several processes and/or other categorized elements (e.g. Value Streams, Applications). It serves as an intermediate categorization level in the process hierarchy, so as to provide a guided and progressive access to finer grained processes.
A set of standard process categories from APQC is supplied with Hopex IT Portfolio Management.
To access process categories of your enterprise:
1. Connect as an EA functional administrator.
2. Click the Environment > Organization navigation menu.
3. In the edit area, expand the Process Categories folder.
