Symbio to SAP Solution Manager diagram synchronization
In this article you will be introduced with the basics of how Symbio diagram elements are synchronized to SAP Solution Manager.
Synchronizing basic elements from Symbio to SAP Solution Manager
Events
All events from Symbio will be synchronized to adequate SAP Solution Manager event:
- StartEvent => StartEvent
- IntermediateEvent => IntermediateEvent
- EndEvent => EndEvent
Gateways
Symbio Gateway AND will be synchronized as a SAP Solution Managers Gateway Parallel:
Symbio Gateway OR will be synchronized as a SAP Solution Managers Gateway Inclusive. Since SAP Solution Manager does not have Condition elements, conditions will be written on the connector arrows:
Symbio Gateway Either-OR will be synchronized as a SAP Solution Managers Gateway Exclusive. Since SAP Solution Manager does not have Condition elements, conditions will be written on the connector arrows:
Tasks
Both Local task and Global task in Symbio can be synchronized in SAP Solution Manager in two ways: as a draft task or as a process step.
If a Best Practice Task is attached to the task element, microservice will synchronize that task as a Process Step.
If Best Practice Task is not connected to a task, a draft task will be created in the SAP Solution Manager.
If Best Practice Task is attached, a reference to the Process Step will be created in the diagram. A reference will have the name of the task and the description of the task, but also a reference to the original Process Step which will remain unchanged.
Documents attached to global tasks
If you attach a link document to the Global Task in Symbio, it will also be synchronized with the Global Task. Be aware that this is only available if you are creating a reference to the Process Step, so a connected Best Practice Task is required.
