Business Layer - connecting Processes and Objects.

[cadmageren]

Trying to model the business processes and business objects.

In this case there is a business process of setting up a new project. This requires two documents. (A Design Basis and a P&I Diagram). Further down in the Process track, there is an output: A 2D Drawing.

What would be the best way to model this?

Instead of the generic association, you shall use the access relationship. You can then specify the access type: read, write, read/write, access which will allow you to specify if the business object is an input or an output of a process (or both, or unspecified)

Ok thanks
Is there a special notation for adding this info?

I think got it now
Found the RW options. And because an object is a Passive thing, the arrow will always go towards this, because a passive object it self can not perform an action.

Thanks again.
