Structural element

Description

Structural elements were originally introduced for the structuring model. In this model, structural elements are used to map structuring criteria and arrange them in a hierarchy. In BPMN, objects of the Structural element type are represented using the Group symbol. A group enables the user to categorize or emphasize objects in a model. Grouping does not influence the process flow.
