The optional ManufacturingProcessId element is a reference to the traceability information for process used to manufacture this group of characteristics.
The optional xId attribute is a reference to the id of a QIF object in an external document. A QIF object in an external QIF document can be referenced by using references to two QIF ids: the id of the external document reference of type ExternalQIFDocumentReferenceType found in the local document and the id of the object found in the external document.
