Process Studio – capabilities at a glance

Process Studio

Everything attached to a process step

Not marketing copy but the list: what Process Studio contains, sorted by what you need it for. Anyone assessing a tool does not want adjectives – they want to know whether the capability is there.

Capabilities, not promises

Modelling, details on the element, search, collaboration and handover – including the limits.

1

Modelling

◇

BPMN, complete and direct

Tasks, events, gateways, sub-processes, pools and lanes – BPMN 2.0 with diagram interchange, not a reduced subset.

KI

Process from text

Describe instead of draw: the agent creates the model – new, replaced or extending an existing one.

↔

Automatic layout

Orthogonal connections, grid, alignment to phases – in the style the Learning Model derived from your inventory.

≡

Phases and lanes

Assign steps to a phase, colour the bands, set the order – the structure that reappears in Jira and Confluence.

EvidenceAssigning a subprocess: a task refers to another model that shows the step in detail. The target model stays unchanged and shows where it is called from. Gateways cannot be connected (negative test).
2

Attached to the element

ID

TAOM identifier

A stable identifier per step – the basis for keeping the Jira issue, Confluence page and test case tied to the same step.

ERP

Role, system, transaction

Who does it, in what, with which function – ERP functions on several lines, with suggestions from the Learning Model.

W

WRICEF and category

WRICEF

Standard or extension, and of which kind. Shown as a badge on the box.

✓

Inspection duty, risk, control, test case

The chain of evidence on the step – with test result and approval state, not in a list beside it.

DE

Description per language

German and English kept apart, switchable on the step, on the phase and in the edit panel.

◉

Provenance and approval

Human-made, AI-generated or AI-modified – with the person and time of approval.

3

Find and compare

⌕

Inside the open model

Searches labels, descriptions, identifiers and ERP functions – jumps to the hit and zooms in instead of only highlighting.

DB

Across every model

Free text and thirteen ready-made questions across the whole inventory – by term, attribute and context.

▣

Split view

A second model on the left for viewing, the editor on the right – compare without leaving your own. Swap with one click.

Δ

Original and working state

The uploaded file stays selectable next to it: what was it originally, what has it become?

4

Collaboration and history

◫

Work at the same time

You see who is working where – presence on the element, no merging of two versions afterwards.

↶

Change history

What changed, by whom and when – with undo and a view of pending changes before saving.

▰

Workspaces

Models separated per initiative, tied to a tenant – other workspaces visible, but marked as such.

≋

Batch processing for learning

Pick a folder of BPMN files: each file becomes a workspace, and the evaluation for the Learning Model runs along.

5

Hand over

J+C

Jira and Confluence

Epic, stories per phase, issues per step and the page tree with specifications – from the same model.

Integrations →

PDF

HTML and PDF

Evidence to pass on – with descriptions, inspection data and identifiers, in the chosen language.

XML

BPMN file

Everything is in the file, including the TAOM details. It opens in other tools without the additions getting in the way.

API

Interface

Fetch processes and attributes programmatically into your own systems.

Honestly

▥

No process mining

The studio models BPMN and the details on it. It does not read event logs from running systems and does not measure cycle times. If you need both, use mining for measurement and TAOM for description, evidence and delivery.

▶

No execution engine

The studio describes processes, it does not run them. The models serve understanding, evidence and delivery – they are not a workflow engine.

More than a diagram

Process Studio ties model, attributes, roles, systems, requirements, risks, tests and deliverables into one context that is available again for the next initiative.

Structure first, then the diagrams

A process diagram alone does not say where in the company this process sits. The enterprise process model gives it its place – in six levels, from the process landscape down to the individual procedure.

The structure applies to all projects of a tenant. So P2M is called the same in the logistics project as in the HR project – and the figures can be added up.

What

Enterprise process model

The structure of the processes. It belongs to the company and outlives every initiative.

  • L0 to L5, levels can be skipped
  • number range for all identifiers
  • one model per tenant
Who

Organisation

People, units, responsibility – linked to the model instead of duplicated in it.

  • management, areas, streams
  • RACI per level and per step
  • assignments confirmed by e-mail
With what

Projects

The initiatives that work on the structure – several per tenant, on the same basis.

  • SAP logistics, HR, maintenance
  • own Jira and Confluence spaces
  • shared nomenclature

The structure produces the identifier of every process step: P2M.01.02.01-AC001. It appears in the model, in the BPMN file, in the Jira issue and on the Confluence page – the same everywhere.
