Sequential state (service) (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
A Sequential State (Service) is a proprietary element that is required to model UPDM in Modeler.

From a State Description (Service) or Sequential State (Service): right-click the element, point to New, point to DoDAF, and then click Sequential State (Service).
From an SOV-4b Service State Model: click the Sequential State (Service) button, and then click in free space on the diagram or within a Sequential State (Service).

or when part of a Concurrent State (Service):
