Before creating the Resources Processes Flow diagram, the Resources Processes diagram should be created first.
Creating Resources Processes Flow diagram
To create a Resource Process Flow diagram for Function Action flows
Do one of the following:
In the diagram palette, click the Swimlanes and then click the diagram pane. The Select Swimlane Representatives dialog opens. In the dialog, you can choose the Resource Performer to Performer or Resource Role to be represented by the swimlane.
Info
If you click Cancel in the dialog, the empty Swimlanes will be created.
Drag the Resource Performer from the Containment tree directly to the diagram pane to create the Swimlane.
Create Function Action or just Action or drop them from the Containment tree directly to the diagram pane.
Connect Function Action with Function Control Flow or Function Object Flow.
Display the possible Resource Exchanges on Function Control Flow or Function Object Flow.
Creating the inner Process Flow diagrams
Before creating the inner Process Flow diagram, the Process diagram should be created, and the resource structure should be defined there.
Let's say , you have a defined structure and and create the Resource Process Flow diagram with the top element - MRT Searcher as a Swimlane representative.
The Resource Process Flow diagram is created. In the Swimlane, you can add either Function Action or Resource Action. In both cases, you can create an inner Resource Process Flow diagram for a Function Action or Resource Action Smart Manipulator toolbar.
To create a Resource Process Flow diagram from Smart Manipulator of a Function Action or Resource Action
In the Swimlane, select a needed Function Action or Resource Action.
In the Smart Manipulator toolbar, click Resource Process Flow.
The Select Swimlane Representatives dialog dialog opens. In the dialog, you can choose the Resource Performer to the Resource Performer or Resource Role to be represented by the swimlane.
Info
The Select Swimlane Representatives dialog is displayed only when you have a resource structure defined in the Process diagram.
If you click Cancel, the empty diagram will be created.
Click OK. A new Resource Process Flow diagram is created with a Swimlane and the selected performers as the representatives.
When the Function Action is created in the Swimlane, the IsCapableToPerform relationship is created between the Resource Performer and Function (the behavior of the Function Action).
