If you set up a process flow, usually, you first define the things to be done in the process. So, you first add the activities or (sub-)flows. This activity describes how to add a sub-flow to a flow.

To add a sub-flow, you can choose from the flows that are defined for the current solution and its referenced solutions.

If you add a sub-flow to a flow, and you select:

  • A lane, the sub-flow is added to the lane.
  • A flow element, the sub-flow is added to the right of the selected element.
  • No lane or flow element, the sub-flow is added just somewhere on the design grid.


Standard procedure

1. Click Business process modeling.
2. Click the Business processes tab.
3. Click Edit hierarchy.
4. In the tree, select 'a node'.
5. Click Design.
6. Click Sub-process to open the drop dialog.
7. In the list, find and select the desired record.
8. Click OK.
9. Click Save.
 

Note: If you have changed the sub-flow text in the flow design, click outside the sub-flow element before you save the flow design.

10. Close the page.

Notes

  • Often, the flow to which you add a sub-process is assigned to a business process in the business process hierarchy. You can consider to also add the sub-process as child business process to the business process hierarchy. In this way, the sub-process also shown in overviews and tests.
  • You can also open the Flow design page from the:

    • Business process designer page
    • Flow page
