Yes. When you create a start form using process model, parameter variables will be mapped to the rule inputs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. For complex and custom data type its also creating respective rule inputs. It might be applicable for old versions&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect the language here is a holdover from the Appian &amp;quot;Portal&amp;quot; days.  Before SAIL was used for start forms, when process variables were marked as paramaters, a portal start form was automatically generated and provided input fields for those variables when debugging or starting the process.  I suspect CDTs did not have the the same behavior in that version of the start form.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
