Hello all,
I'm trying to transform a EPC to a BPMN and my facing some issues. I'm with ARIS 9.8 version and to make this transformation I go to "BPM" tab and to button "Generate Solution Design".
The problems I'm facing are the following:
1. I have sub-processes at the beginning of the EPC (please see the attached EPC and correspondent BPMN), but in the BPMN these subprocess are not appearing;
2. Subprocesses at the end of the EPC are appearing in the BPMN, but in a task box. How can it appear in a "Subprocess" box? In this post http://www.ariscommunity.com/users/roland-woldt/2011-03-08-learning-bpmn-lesson-3-which-objects-are-bpmn I saw that ARIS have a subprocess box...;
3. In some tasks of the EPC I have in the FAD more than one role associated, and I'm not able to make the transformation to BPMN. How can I make the transformation for tasks with more tan 1 role?
Thanks,
RM
Dear Rose,
If you consider your observations as a bug, please report it via a support ticket on https://empower.softwareag.com/eservice. Global Support ARIS will contact you then.
T my (humble) knowledge the function "Generate Solution Design" isn't meant to transform an ERC to BPMN. Instead, it belongs to the ARIS capability to prepare an EPC model for further processing in webMethods Designer, which requires certain BPMN conventions. Here's an overview of that integration http://localhost/abs/help/en/handling/ba/index.htm#46150.htm
Instead, take a look at "Generate model", described in the ARIS help on page http://localhost/abs/help/en/handling/ba/index.htm#16585.htm.
Global Support ARIS could help you finding the right function.
Cheers

Hi Rune,
I can not and will not speak for Rose, but in my opinion the EPC to BPMN conversion functionality must convert any correct EPC to BPMN. This introduces the implicit requirement, that if a convention is required, a sane convention must be supplied by the converter. This convention can be configurable.
Best regards
Carsten
