Process Design

Modelers can design SAP Signavio Process Governance processes like any other BPMN processes. Here's an example of a document approval process, which consists of basic BPMN elements:

We recommend using the following basic BPMN elements for initial SAP Signavio Process Governance processes:

  • Pools/Lanes

  • Simple Start and End Events

  • Exclusive and Parallel Gateways

  • User and System Tasks

  • Sequence Flows

  • Plain Intermediate Event (Milestone)

  • Intermediate Link Event

We recommend publishing diagrams in SAP Signavio Process Collaboration Hub to increase modelers' process awareness and to encourage feedback.
