Creating a resource flow

Chapter 4 Building an Analysis Business Process Model

Creating a resource flow

You can create a resource flow in any of the following ways:

Use the Flow/Resource Flow tool in the diagram Palette.
Select Model→Resource Flows to access the List of Resource Flows, and click the Add a Row tool.
Right-click the model or package in the Browser, and select New→Resource Flow.

For more information about the different ways to create a resource flow, see section Creating an object in chapter Managing Objects in the General Features Guide .

When you create a resource flow from the Browser or from the list of resource flows, you must previously define a process object and a resource object for the resource flow.

Dragging a resource flow to a different object
You change the object at either end of a resource flow by clicking the resource flow to select it, and dragging one of the attach points to a different object.

Opening the property sheet of objects at both ends

You can open the property sheet of the process and resource objects by clicking the Process and Resource buttons located at the top part of the resource flow property sheet.

Displaying resource flows from the process or resource property sheets

Resource flows linked to a resource or a process are also displayed in the process or resource property sheet. You can display those resource flows from the Resource Flows sub-tab of their Dependencies tab.
