4 likes3,985 views
The document provides instructions for two modeling projects using BPMN 2.0 - to model the processes of graduation clearance and faculty traveling permission at a university. It includes descriptions of the two business processes and tasks students to model each process in BPMN 2.0 in Signavio and submit the models by specific deadlines in April and May 2015.

- 5. 5Jarrar © 2015 Analytics Constructs • BPMN 2.0 supports descriptive and Analytical constructs. • Descriptive constructs are covered in the previous lectures. • Analytical constructs will be the focus of this lecture. • Analytical constructs are designed to help us analyze and improve/optimize business processes
- 6. 6Jarrar © 2015 Activities Collapsed subprocess: A whole process can be collapsed and used as subprocess or activity inside another activity, called. This helps us to abstract and encapsulate details (hide internal details) of our model, and help re-use previously designed processes. Order Book Ship Order ++
- 7. 7Jarrar © 2015 Connecting Objects Association (undirected), attaching a data object with an undirected association to a sequence flow indicates hand- over of information between the activities involved. Association (unidirectional), a directed association indicates information flow. A data object can be read at the start of an activity or written upon completion.
- 8. 8Jarrar © 2015 Connecting Objects Association (bidirectional), a bidirected association indicates that a data object is modified, i.e. both read and write during the execution of an activity.

- 10. 10Jarrar © 2015 Process Diagrams are Good to Have Process models/diagrams are good to have: 0 Errors 0 Warnings 0 Hints However, the target in this course that diagrams have 0 Errors 0 Warnings (except layout warnings) Layout warnings are useful to resolve for better readability of the business process models (BPMN 2.0).
- 11. 11Jarrar © 2015 Start Events Start Conditional Event A process instance is started based on changed business conditions or matching business rule (i.e., reached maximum limit of course admission) Start Signal Event A process instance is started based on signaling across different processes (one signal thrown can be caught multiple times).
- 12. 12Jarrar © 2015 End Events End Escalated Event The case is escalated with the end of process. End Error Event The process ends in an error state. As result a named error is thrown. End Signal Event At the end of process a signal is thrown (one signal thrown can be caught multiple times.
- 13. 13Jarrar © 2015 Gateways Event-based Gateway Is always followed by catching events or receiving tasks. Sequence flow is routed to the subsequent event/task which happen first. Inclusive Gateway When splitting, one or more branches are activated based on branching conditions. When merging, it waits all active incoming branches to complete.
- 14. 14Jarrar © 2015 Data Objects Message A message is used to depict the contents of communication between two participants.
- 15. 15Jarrar © 2015 Throwing Intermediate Events Intermediate Escalation Event This event triggers the escalation of the case to another role in the organization. After this, process execution is resumed. Intermediate Message Event The throwing message event sends a message to a communication partner and afterwards continues process execution.
- 16. 16Jarrar © 2015 Throwing Intermediate Events Intermediate Signal Event The throwing signal event fires up a signal. Afterwards it continues the process execution. One signal is thrown can be caught multiple times by different catching signal events. Signals can happen across different processes. Intermediate Link Event A throwing link event activates a link event with the same name somewhere within the process. Together the two corresponding link events replace the sequence flow.
- 17. 17Jarrar © 2015 Catching Intermediate Event Intermediate Message Event This event reacts on the arrival of a message. Intermediate Timer Event Process execution is delayed until a certain point in time is reached or a particular duration is over. Intermediate Conditional Event Process execution is delayed until a changed business condition or business rule matches.
- 18. 18Jarrar © 2015 Catching Intermediate Event Intermediate Error Event Catches a named error, which was thrown be an inner scope (e.g. subprocess). This event need to be attached to the boundary of an activity. Intermediate Signal Event Process execution is delayed until a particular signal is catched. Signaling can happen across different processes.
- 19. 19Jarrar © 2015 Catching Intermediate Event Intermediate Link Event A catching end event waits for a throwing link event with the same name to triggered. Together the two corresponding link events replace a sequence flow. Intermediate Escalation Event This event reacts on the escalation of a case. It need to be attached to the boundary of an activity.
- 20. 20Jarrar © 2015 Project I: Graduation Clearance Description: After graduation, each student is required to fill in a clearance form, and get it signed by several departments in the University. Students cannot obtain their certificate unless this form is ready and signed by the Financial department, Library, Student Affairs, and his/her Academic department. As this process takes lots of time and efforts from students and involved departments. The university would like to automate the process, so that students can request easily it through Ritaj. Task: Model the above business process using BPMN 2.0 on Signavio, and deliver hard copy before, April 30th 2015 at 9AM, Please also save a soft copy on the shared folder “Graduation Clearance”.

- 22. 22Jarrar © 2015 Project II: Faculty Traveling Permission Description: Faculty member who want to travel during semesters are required to have a permission. Faculty member need to fill in a form and get it signed by the department chair and the dean of the faculty. The form includes (a) some information about the trip, destination, dates, and purpose; and (b) a plan on how they will make up the the missed lectures. The form is then sent to the department chair to decide whether this plan is acceptable, and send it to the dean who then decides to give the permission or not. The dean may take the recommendations of the dept. chair into account; and can refuse if the faculty member succeeded the allowed number of absence days (9 teaching days per semester). After acceptance/rejection of the form, the faculty member and the chair are notified, and a copy of the decision is also sent to VP-academic. As this process takes lots of time and efforts from faculty member and involved departments. The university would like to automate the process, so that faculty members can request it easily through Ritaj. Task: Model the above business process using BPMN 2.0 on Signavio, and deliver hard copy before, May 5th 2015 at 9AM, Please also save a soft copy on the shared folder “Faculty Traveling Permission”.
