Adding the Review Report Activity

In this task you add the Review Report activity, an interactive activity used by participants in the Supervisor role.

To add the Review Report interactive activity:

  1. Click on the interactive activity icon (Interactive Activity icon 
				) in the editor toolbar, and insert the interactive activity in the Supervisor swimlane, and to the right of the Check Company Policy activity. The Activity dialog box appears.
  2. In the Name field, enter Review Report, and click OK. The Review Report interactive activity is added to the process.
  3. Click on the transition between the Check Company Policy activity and the End activity. The transition is highlighted with a round grip at each end.
  4. Click and drag the right side of the transition (the arrowhead side), so that it goes to the Review Report activity. The End activity is now disconnected, so if you save the process at this point some errors will appear in the Problems window, which is below the design editor.
  5. To reconnect the End activity, click on Add Transition (Add Transition icon 
				), in the Flow section of the toolbar, then click on the Review Report activity and then finally on the End activity. The End activity is once again connected to the process. If there are errors in the Problems window, save the process. The errors should disappear within a few moments.
  6. Move the End activity, by clicking and dragging, down to the Supervisor swimlane. It should be to the right of the Review Report activity (see the diagram below).
    Note: It is usually good practice to indicate forward progress in the process by flowing from left to right. Avoid backward flows in the happy path.

After completing this task, your process design diagram should look like this:
