Flowchart info

This diagram is typical of most flow charts you will find in process documentation. Using these basic symbols is a simple but effective way to provide a graphical snapshot of a process. The following is an overview of the symbols:

• The rectangles indicate Process steps.
• The diamonds indicate Decisions, or branches in the process.
• The circles indicate Connectors which act as jump nodes from one part of the process to another.
• The ovals ( Terminators) indicate the process boundaries, showing where the process starts and stops.
• The arrows ( Flow Lines) indicate the process flow direction.
