Red Hat Training
A Red Hat training course is available for Red Hat Process Automation Manager
Chapter 2. Red Hat Process Automation Manager support for BPMN2
With Red Hat Process Automation Manager, you can model your business processes using the BPMN 2.0 standard. You can then use Red Hat Process Automation Manager to run, manage, and monitor these business processes. The full BPMN 2.0 specification also includes details on how to represent items such as choreographies and collaboration. However, Red Hat Process Automation Manager uses only the parts of the specification that you can use to specify executable processes. This includes almost all elements and attributes as defined in the Common Executable subclass of the BPMN2 specification, extended with some additional elements and attributes.
The following table contains a list of icons used to indicate whether a BPMN2 element is supported in the legacy process designer, the legacy and new process designer, or not supported.
