11.1. Process Design

In the Process Design section of this module, users can create and design processes for the application.

*A process is a series of interconnected tasks that function together to produce a result known as the workflow. For various reasons—including efficiency, productivity, and accuracy—businesses strive to automate their processes. An essential part of automating processes, however, involves identifying the proper processes and subprocesses and designing them.

The DBP Designer enables users to identify and define the different processes used by organizations.

• When creating a process, the following elements should be considered and documented:
  • Inputs
  • Outputs
  • Roles Involved in the Process
  • Rules
  • Operations
  • Operational Sequence and Workflow
  • Connection to Other Processes
  • Connection with External Information Systems

Once they have been identified and defined, processes can then be designed and implemented in the Process Designer.
