IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2.1

Mapping Visio shapes to Process Designer objects

This document describes the default mapping for the BPMN stencil supplied with the IBM® FileNet® P8 Connector for Microsoft Visio package, and also for the standard Microsoft Visio stencils.

The Visio Import feature in Process Designer depends on a mapping of Microsoft Visio shapes to Process Designer objects. When you import a Visio diagram with these shapes into Process Designer, you can either use the default mapping or change the mapping to suit your preferences.
