  Key Concepts: 
  Execution type for process step is a feature of SAP Value Chain Management (CA-VCM) that allows users to define the type of execution for each process step. This includes manual, automatic, or semi-automatic execution. The execution type determines how the process step is executed and how it interacts with other process steps. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the execution type for process step feature, users must first define the process steps in the system. Once the process steps have been defined, users can then assign an execution type to each process step. This can be done by selecting the appropriate option from the drop-down menu in the “Execution Type” field. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning an execution type to a process step, it is important to consider how it will interact with other process steps. For example, if a manual execution type is assigned to a process step, then any subsequent process steps must also be manually executed.
