INTEGRATING SUB-PROCESSES IN BUSINESS PROCESS MODELING NOTATION PROCESSES

摘要

This disclosure provides various embodiments for modeling a first business process as a sub-process of a second business process, the first business process less than fully compatible with a particular business process management system. The first business process is compatible with a first system adapted to execute the first business process. The first business process is identified and a user input received requesting modeling of the first business process as a sub-process of the second business process. A modeled sub-process is generated including a reference to the first system, callable from the modeled sub-process, and an interface definition defining an interface between the modeled sub-process and the first system. A modeled interface between a model of the second business process and the modeled sub-process is generated defining inputs and outputs between first and second business processes. In some aspects, the modeled sub-process can be deployed in a runtime environment.
