What is a Process Model?

A process model is a graphical representation of a business process. This representation can include such information as the relationships between activities, the sequence of activities, responsibility for various activities, and time allowed to complete the activities.

AgilePoint BPMS uses diagrams created using the Microsoft Visio add-on AgilePoint Envision to create process models. When the process model is created, Envision also automatically creates an XML file (called a process definition) that includes all the data that is required to run the process on demand. No further coding is required to get the process up and running beyond the process model created in Visio.
