Gateways are described in detail in the context of the BPMN process diagram (see chapter Gateways).
See: Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN), version 2.0.
Mapping the attributes and model associations to ARIS:
Class |
BPMN attribute name |
Implementation in ARIS |
Gateway |
inherits from FlowElement |
Object type: Rule (OT_RULE) |
|
gatewayDirection: GatewayDirection = unspecified |
The number of incoming and outgoing sequence flows depends on the modeling context, that is, the position of the gateway in the process. Thus, there is no ARIS attribute type representing the gateway direction. Gateways whose direction is unspecified or mixed should be avoided. |
