Linking models via Start/End Events

Camunda 8 Topics User Feedback

Hey,

I am currently using Camunda and BPMN to create a holistic end-to-end model of all mappable process within a business. One of the big issues I am facing is around linking models to each. As a work around I have been pasting the link to the next process in the comments section of the corresponding end event.

I’m making this post to get others thoughts on this/propose that having a new type of end/start event element which has this functionality would be extremely valuable. Just a thought!

Hi @gwest,

I can think of two possibilities:
Use a message send end event and a message receive start event. You can use the naming to show that these two are counterparts.
Alternatively, consider modeling a high-level process with call activities (stronger coupling). Call activities can link to different models; hence, the overall process shows the flow from one process model to another.
