I'm following the tutorial -- In the Modeling Message Passing and Services section (Business process), whenever I try to draw a message flow line between two processes (e.g., between "Make Full Room Rate Charge (in Accounts) and "Charge Credit Card" in Credit Agency), I get the error message
The methodology does not allow the drawing of a line of type Message Flow between those locations. Is this a bug, or is there something obvious or atrick I'm missing? Thanks |

I am able to create a Sequence Flow, and use Transform Symbol to change it to a Message Flow.

The notation standards do not allow a message flow between processes, unless they are in two seperate pools. See section 8.4.2 of the BPMN Adopted Specifications for further clarification (http://www.bpmn.org/Documents/OMG%20Final%20Adopted%20BPMN%201-0%20Spec%2006-02-01.pdf).
The document listed above is located at this URL: http://www.bpmn.org/. There are other related BPMN articles and papers located at this site that might be of some interest in using the BPMN notation. Good luck, Doug |

Thank you. My "Credit Agency" was a lane rather than a pool. Edited: 5-Nov-2007 at 20:54 by Rick Thorington |
