Definition

Process status flow rule.

Use

For a process scenario, a business rule needs to be defined that determines the sequence in which the sub process scenarios need to be processed.

At the first level, the business rule is defined by specifiying relationships between the respective sub process scenarios. i.e. the sub process scenarios are independent of each other or not.

At the second level, the detailed sequence is defined. i.e. the transition of a sub process scebario status is allowed/ not allowed based on the status of certain pre-requisite sub process scenarios. This relationship is defined by the process status flow rule.

Dependencies

See also Business rules and Relationship between sub process scenarios.

Example

In a business scenario like "Pension Administration for Employees", the sub process scenarios could be -

- Master Data changes

- Calculate length of Service

- Generate Notification reports

- Approve reports, etc..

The sequence of steps to complete the business scenario may be : first complete Master Data Changes, then calculate length of service and then proceed to generate notification reports,etc..

So process status flow rule between the sub process scenarios could be -

Prim SPS : MData Changes ALLOW Second SPS : Len of serv

Pri Status : Completed Sec Status : In Process

i.e Allow the status of sub process scenario Length of Service to be set to 'In Process' only after Master Data changes is 'Completed'.
