Connecting the Elements (Evaluation Guide)
Go Up to Session 3: Creating a Business Process Model Diagram (Evaluation Guide)
There are three different types of connectors used in the Business Process Modeling Notation: Sequence Flow, Message Flow, and an Association.
To complete our diagram we are going to use the Sequence Flow connector to connect all elements in the diagram.
- 1 Click the Sequence Flow icon (
) on the Business Process Toolbar. - 2 Draw sequence flows between the following elements:
- Start Event to Check Order task
- Check Order task to Check Inventory task
- Check Inventory task to Confirm Order Pull task
- Confirm Order Pull task to the End Event
- Error Intermediate Event to the Handle Fault task
- Handle Fault task to the second End Event
This completes the process of creating the business process diagram. Your diagram should resemble the following graphic.
