BPMN templates: example processes to study and rebuild
Common business processes as BPMN 2.0 diagrams with swimlanes, each with an explanation of the roles, decisions and every element. Created and laid out automatically with AIxFlow.
Approval process
A request comes in, gets checked and is approved or rejected by a manager. The basic pattern behind almost every sign-off, from purchasing to budget release.
Quotation process with customer
A customer inquiry runs through sales and warehouse and ends with a quote. Two pools show where your company ends and the customer begins.
Invoice approval (accounts payable)
From receipt to payment: the department confirms the goods or service, accounts payable checks the figures, and amounts above a threshold need sign-off.
Leave request
An employee requests leave, the manager checks cover and team planning, HR records it. A classic first BPMN example.
Incident management (ITIL)
A disruption is reported, logged by the service desk and resolved or escalated to 2nd level. With a timer for the service level.
Change management
A change to IT systems is requested, assessed for risk, and implemented either directly as a standard change or after approval by the change advisory board.
Vulnerability management
From scan finding to patch: assess, rank by severity, emergency patch or regular patch cycle, exception with risk acceptance.
Employee onboarding
Once the contract is signed, IT equipment and the training plan run in parallel so everything is ready on day one.
Employee offboarding
From the leaving date to the disabled account: handover and an inventory of accounts run in parallel, devices come back, and access is revoked last.
Online shop order process
Order, payment check, picking and shipping, with the customer as a separate pool. Shows which messages the customer gets and when.
