What version of DevTest are you using?
I wonder if there is a configuration issue with the Sub-process and/or the calling test case.
In the Sub-process, are the expected properties passed by the caller defined in the input parameters list?
They cannot be defined in Prospective Input Parameters. They must be input parameters.
The default value in the below Sub-process enables it to run when the Sub-process is executed in ITR mode.
In the main process that is calling the Subprocess, you should be able to pass a property in the value side of the key/value pair. For example,
In the following example, the Main test case contains a Create Your Own Dataset having two (2) file names. As each row is read, the value of the row is placed in the Main test case's {{defaultFile}} property.
For each defaultFile, the subprocess is called.
The subprocess (below) opens the file past to it and iterates over each entry in the CSV file.
After reading a row, the subprocess prints the content, loops for the next row, until all rows are processed.
At end of the dataset, the sub-process returns control back to the Main process.
The main process reads the next file name and calls the subprocess to start processing against the next file found in the Create Your Dataset.
For simplicity, Print Name and State step in the subprocess simply outputs the {{defaultFile}} property value and lists the values of two (2) columns in the CSV file (e.g., NAME and STATE). These are printed in the Workstation.log file using the _logger.info. Sample code is:
_logger.info("File is: {} and data is: {}",
testExec.getStateValue("defaultFile"),
testExec.getStateValue("NAME") + " - " + testExec.getStateValue("STATE") );
After running the main test and calling the subprocess, the log indicates that both datasets are accessed and display their respective content. The output below is abbreviated but does show the content of each file and column.

Changed the main.tst to use a property called {{fileToProcess}} and uploaded an example test case with subprocess along with excerpted Workstation.log file as shown above.
