A method and system for modeling an instance neutral process step allows creation of process templates that categorize various documents, actions, data, dependencies relating to a process step and associating them in a step of a process model, condensing the diverse set of attributes into one cohesive structure. After a process step is fully modeled by configuring the various attributes, processing engines use these attributes to perform various end-user tasks such as viewing input/output data, generating reports, accessing information, and making annotations. Display attributes are specified; knowledge resources, input/output data and runtime behavior are specified and associated with a process step and later accessed by users. For each attribute that is identified, a mechanism is specified for defining and accessing the information in a step-specific manner.
