Business Process Model

A business process model is a structured and measured set of activities designed to produce a specific output for a particular customer or market. It implies a strong emphasis on how work is done within an organisation. In contrast to a product focus’s emphasis, a process is thus a specific ordering of work activities across time and space, with a clear beginning and an end, as well as clearly defined inputs and outputs.

When you design and implement your business process model with the OpenText Process Suite platform (f.k.a. Cordys Business Operations Platform), you can manipulate the process data stored in XML in the so-called message map. 

While you are implementing a process, you will use the message map to work with the data of the process.
