QPR BusinessPortal Processes View

Processes Main Page

This page presents the root process content in the cards/diagram views. This is a starting point in exploring the process hierarchy.

Card View

The Card view visualizes the processes modeled in QPR EnterpriseArchitect / ProcessDesigner as cards. The cards can be clicked to expand the subprocesses or to view details about the selected process step.

If the lowest hierarchy level contains only activities (i.e. there are no processes at all), the activities are visualized as an activity table instead of card components.

Diagram View

Shows a diagram view of the selected process. If user clicks some element, the view contents and url update. The diagram contents and layout are coming from MEA WebService. If the layout or contents of the diagram needs to be changed, this needs to be done in modeling software.

Process Details

To see the process details, click the "See Details" link on the process card. The Details dialog shows the name of the process, its description, selected attributes, the Inputs and Outputs graphic, and a table of lower level processes. The Details dialog can be closed either by clicking outside the dialog or by clicking the close button on the bottom of the overlay.

Sider

The Sider on the left side of the screen shows the tree hierarchy of processes that are modeled in QPR EnterpriseArchitect / ProcessDesigner.

You can expand and collapse the hierarchy by clicking the small arrows. Clicking a process level on the hierarchy will select that process level and update the Card / Diagram view to show the contents of that process. The currently selected process level and path are highlighted in the process hierarchy shown on the Sider.

The Sider can be resized, hidden, and shown using the small tab handle on the right edge of the Sider.

Page Header

The Page Header shown on the top part of the view displays basic information about the selected process on top level of the process hierarchy.

The Page Header also contains buttons to switch between the Card View and the Diagram View.
