Process management directly within the Enterprise Wiki
The viadee BPMN Modeler is a lightweight extension for the Enterprise Wiki System Atlassian Confluence. With the BPMN Modeler it is possible to carry out methodically profound process management directly within Confluence. The numerous and valuable advantages of this approach resulted from the extensive project experience of our BPM experts and were the motivation for the development of the plug-in.
Advantages
- Models can be created directly within the Wiki, framed by accompanying documentation, e.g. using process fact sheets and process maps
- Technical process diagrams, which are for example executed by the Camunda BPM process engine, are also designed in Confluence
- Linking process knowledge with other aspects of the company
- All process models are in one place and changes are versioned automatically
- Process information is made accessible to every employee of the company, in order to create transparency for operative personnel
- Standard-compliant BPMN 2.0 models can be imported from other modeling tools such as Camunda, Signavio or Adonis by drag and drop.
- Easy to use modeling tool available to every employee without installing additional software

Versioning
Collaborative working with the comment function of Confluence
Commenting on model elements
- You can add comments to each node in the process model
- The comments document, for example, the current state of discussion in process modeling
- For each comment, the author and the timestamp of the comment are saved
Version control and version commenting
- When saving changes made to a process diagram the author can leave a version comment
- This makes it possible to trace which model change was made in which diagram version.
Version comparison
- You can choose two different versions of one diagram and visually compare them
- Process analysts can see, which process elements have been added, which elements have been deleted, where there have been changes made to attributes, and where the order of elements on the drawing area has been changed
Links to wiki pages and external pages
Linking of process models
- If you work with hierarchical process structures, e.g. main and sub processes, or with process interfaces, you can link these diagrams and navigate through the process net.
- Clicking on the linked process directly displays the diagram in the preview window
- From here you can jump to the linked process diagram and start editing
An extended attributes panel provides the following editing options for process model elements:
- Display of all links stored for a process element
- Textual description of the process element
- Colour highlighting of the process element
Display the technical attributes of the process element, which are needed for process automation purposes
