Business processes are analyzed on the basis of a business process model. These models map a relevant section of the real world and attempt to represent the business process in a simplified way. In a business process model there are several activities that represent business functions and states within a company. These activities are organized in a meaningful sequence by a control flow, so that dependencies of the processes can be derived from the model. There are numerous modeling techniques for business processes. Depending on the purpose of the analysis, appropriate models should be used.[1].
