Process List 

The process list feature is a helpful tool for displaying a step-by-step process or timeline. It is separate and distinct from a numbered list. When considering the process list feature, the total number of steps in your process should be between 3-10. Additionally, it is important to keep step names and supporting details succinct. There are two sets of steps to complete to create and place a process list within the content of a site. Step one is to add process steps. Step two is to place the process list.
