Learning Objectives

•    Utilise business process software to document and analyse the sales-to-cash business process

•    Create a model of the Global Bikes Order to Cash process, using BPMN 2.0 notation.

A. Access Signavio Process Editor

1.   Each  student  must  register  themselves  first  using  their  University  email  address  (e.g., xxxx@sydney.edu.au).

2.   Go to https://academic.signavio.com/p/registerand follow the prompts. Each user will have their own Signavio workspace and is by default an administrator.

This is the screen where you will land

Close the ‘New in January 2023’ box

   Click on New>BPMN 2.0 from the top drop down menu

   You will create a new canvas in a new tab

B. Create a Model of the Global Bikes Order to Cash Process using BPMN 2.0

   You will have created a ‘space’ to create your BPMN 2.0

   To add an element to the diagram canvas, select it from the shape repository on the left side of the Editor, drag it onto the diagram canvas and drop it.

   Use the ‘Core Elements’ menu.

   You should use and label appropriate lanes, based on the resources identified in the text

   Do not use the Dictionary entries for labelling your lanes. 

   For example here is the Start Event that has been dragged and dropped

   You need to use the drop down to access BPMN (Complete) for some of your elements

C. Use the following conventions

1.   For this class exercise you only need to model the entity Global Bikes. To do this, create a pool Global Bikes, and add all your swimlanes to that. You do not need to external entities such as the Customer

2.   Start the process at “request for written quotation received”

3.   Use the data store symbol  for each type of master data. To find this symbol, go to BPMN (Complete) and click on Data objects

4.   Use the data object symbol  for each type of event data (document).

5.   For situations where you are awaiting an action from the customer use the intermediate

available from Catching Intermediate Events

D. Save your work

   Save your document

   Head to the printer icon and save as a pdf

   Signavio  will   automatically  validate  the   model  (check  if  the   model  meets  modelling conventions),  so you  may  receive  these  warnings  because  of  the  conventions  we  are using. Note that we would have to resolve these if we were going to use the simulation capabilities.
