Modeler section

The Modeler section lets you create processes. The navigation panel at the top features model editors for different model types. For working with FA, the following options are supported:

Processes

To learn more about BPMN, see the BPNM standard description. To learn about how to create processes, see the Processes editor section in the Flowable Design user guide.

Decisions

To learn more about DMN, see the DMN standard description. To learn about how to create decision tables, see the Decisions editor section in the Flowable Design user guide.
