## Details
The [Start Process component](../process-services/start-process.component.md) uses the Start [`Form`](../../lib/process-services/task-list/models/form.model.ts) component
to display the
[start form](http://docs.alfresco.com/process-services1.6/topics/none_start_event.html)
for the process.
The `outcomeClick` event is passed a string containing the ID of the outcome button that
the user clicked. You can pass this value to the `startProcess` method (defined in the
[Process service](../process-services/process.service.md)) when activating the process, if necessary.
