Design a workflow using various components of the BPMN infrastructure.
Use the following components to design workflows:
•Swimlane. Partition a set of steps in a workflow and visually distinguish task responsibilities between different user roles.
•Start. Start a workflow.
•User Task. A human action is required for approvals. For example, you might want to add a user task step to a loan approval process.
•Decision Gateway. A control point in a workflow. Use to control the direction of the workflow based on your decision in a user task. For example, approve the request if it meets the requirements, reject if not, or return if more information is required.
•Connections. Connect components in a workflow.
•End. Marks the completion of a workflow.
You can use the following tools when you design workflows:
•Hand Tool. Move the workflow around the canvas when zoomed in. This tool is useful in large workflows where components are not all visible at once.
•Space Tool. Adjust spacing between components and create or remove space both horizontally and vertically in a workflow. This tool is helpful to maintain a clean and organized layout when you add new components or rearrange existing ones.
•Select Tool. Select one or more components in a workflow.
