I have a number of EPCs I need to link together.  I have tried using the assignment function, but only see the options to create a new assignment or delete an existing one.  How do I assign an existing model or diagram to a selected diagram object?  I also noticed that when a new assignment was created, the resulting diagram was not stored in the same database - where are newly created models stored when generated using the assignment function?

 

Thank you

Hi Louise

Via the "create assignment" button, a dialogue appears, there you have to select the diagram type you want to assign, e.g. epc.

Then you enter either the name of the diagram or an asterix. With the * the existing diagrams wil be displayed.

See attached screenshot

regards

Christoph

Thank you.  Just to clarify, the asterisk needs to be followed with a space character otherwise a new diagram called '*' will be created automatically, so '* ' is required, not '*'.

Regards

Louise

I would have to say that this is NOT a very intuitive way to make use of Existing Models via Assignments. It works, but again not very intuitive. Just sayin'.

Dear Michael,

Are you often creating assignments? If so, do you mainly create a process hierachy, e.g. linking a process landscape with a BPMN process?

Or are you rather adding more details to objects of your model by assigning function allocation diagrams to tasks/process steps?


If you are interested in satellite modeling as an alternative to assigning functiona allocation diagrams, please watch our tutorial:

Thanks Rune. I will have a look at the video. Always good to see how to do different "things" in Aris. I am actually mainly focused on the Application Architecture area and we are mainly using Assignments on Connections/Relationships to delve deeper into details of Integration Points between SBBs/Components. In the Business Architecture area we are using Assignments again mainly between higher level/rolled up EPCs and the lower level/more detailed corresponding End to End EPCs.

Again, thanks for the insight.
