In general, no particular information needs to be supplied for simulating a process model. Default values are used in place of any attributes that are missing:
When business processes are simulated, process instances are generated. Their creation is controlled by the frequency of start events. If no frequency has been specified, one process instance is generated per day.
If no processing time has been specified for functions, functions are carried out without any time requirement.
If the Number of employees object attribute has not been specified for the Group and Organizational unit object types, and if no value has been specified for the respective Number of required employees connection attribute, 1 is assumed to be the number required and available.
If control after XOR or OR rules is not to be effected using conditions, and no probabilities have been specified at connections or events after these rules, probabilities are equally distributed among the branches in the case of XOR rules and set to 1 in the case of OR rules. The latter case is equivalent to an AND rule.
