Build and design processes

A process is a series of steps and decisions required to carry out a specific task accurately.

Process maps help users to identify and understand the process flow as well as important steps. When processes are not mapped, it increases the chance of errors, reduces efficiency and increases cost. Processes are an important part of our everyday life and some examples of common processes are:

• Creating a sales order

• Onboarding a new employee

• Applying for annual leave

• Leasing a property
