Adding a swimlane to an activity

You add swimlanes to an activity to divide the work among roles and workgroups. You add steps to swimlanes.

Before you begin

Before you can add a workgroup swimlane you must create one or more workgroups.

Procedure

Drag a role or workgroup swimlane to the canvas.

A new swimlane automatically takes the name of an existing role or workgroup. You can change the role or workgroup by editing the swimlane properties.

Results

You can add steps to the new swimlane. If you close the Step Designer before you add steps to the swimlane, the empty swimlane is not saved in the solution.
