In EPC, an instance of assignment type represents a specific description between two business object (such as an association between a Process object and a Document object).
In order to better define these relationship between objects, EPC now provides analysts with the capability to declare for each relationship a type and its justification.
An Assignment type and Justification contains the following information:
- A name to describe the relationship. (required)
- A simple text file to further describe in detail (optional)
Creating, updating and maintaining the assignment types are the responsibility of the system admins.

How do I use the assignment type field?
Once your users is in the edit details form of a business object, they can choose to associate different EPC to one another. Once they’ve selected an object, a table will display the name, the assignment type, the justification and the remaining fields. The cell corresponding to the assignment type and the associated object will display Directly Impacts by default. Afterwards your users can select a broad range of default system values or use the custom assignment types to categorize them.
