Answer from AI

The following elements are usually added to a BPMN diagram:

  • Pools — represent participants in the process or organization.
  • Lanes — subdivisions within a pool, responsible for specific roles or departments.
  • Events — start, intermediate, and end events of the process (e.g., process start, message receipt, completion).
  • Tasks — actions or work that are performed.
  • Sequence Flows — show the order of task execution.
  • Message Flows — exchange messages between pools.
  • Gateways — decision points, branching, or merging of flows.

Example of a simple flow:

  1. Start Event — beginning of the process.
  2. Task — perform an action (e.g., "Check application").
  3. Gateway — make a decision (e.g., "Application approved?").
  4. Task — if yes, perform "Process application".
  5. End Event — end of the process.

This simple flow helps visualize the sequence of actions and decision points in a business process.
