Hi is there a way to make a process executable but only using a signal event so it should not appear in the list of processes in tasklist webapp? Thank you

If you don’t want a process to show up as startable in tasklist, you can un-tick the startable tickbox.

Thank you but i know that, my question was if and how i can make it executable when a signal event fires but not from the list in the tasklist app. I want it only be executable by a signal event!
Sure, you’d just need to add a signal start event to your process and configure the signal reference and it will start when a signal with that reference is sent to the engine.
But it will still be executable in the tasklist app!!!
… yes 
Is there a way to accomplish what i just asked for? And another question: i plan to buy the professional edition, will i get the same answers then?
Feel free to give more details about your requirements if i’m not understanding you… but this is what i’m gathering you want to do.
Step One:
Step Two:
If you do that you will have process that can be started with a signal event and not appear as startable in tasklist.
Sure, you’ll probably get the same answers but with slightly better grammar, fewer emojis and a more restrained sense of humor 
I did exactly that.
First process (startable) with a signal “TestSignal” at the end
diagram_1.bpmn (3.0 KB)
Second process (not startable) with a signal event (TestSignal) at the beginning.
diagram_2.bpmn (2.8 KB)
But process2 does not start when the signal occur. When i make process2 executable it works but then process2 also appears in the list.
Thanks for uploading the model.
Can you show me exactly how you’re triggering your signal event and i’ll test it locally
As a side note - i saw that both of the models you upload have the startable box ticked.

Please have a look again
What do you mean “you’re triggering the event”? I dont trigger it @Ingo_Richtsmeier told me signal events fires if i just put them in the model. Also when i make process2 executable it seems to fire… But then it appears in the list again…
Ok… i see what happened here.
The IsExecutable and the IsStartable are two very different boxes.
If you untickIsExecutable the process will NEVER start under any circumstance.
The Startable tickbox menas that it will be startable from anywhere except for tasklist
