Chapter 4 Building an Analysis Business Process Model


Factorizing conditions

If you are working with a decision, it is useful to write a condition on the decision in order to factorize the conditions attached to the flows, it allows you to simplify the global process whenever you are using long and complex conditions.

Example


Use the Condition tab in the decision property sheet to write the following condition: Total * NB + VAT > 10.000. Then use the Condition tab in both flows property sheet: enter True in one and False in the other.

The decision object is not mandatory. You can build an equivalent structure with several flows outgoing from a process with guard conditions on each flow.
