2. Definition of Flowchart Flow is a representation of a series of logic operations to satisfy specific requirements. A flow exists naturally. It can be irregular, unfixed or full of problems. Chart, or diagram, is a presentation or a written description of some regular and common parts of the flow. A chart is conducive to communication and concentration and offers references for process reengineering. Flowchart is a means to visually present the flow of data through an information processing systems, the operations performed within the system and the sequence in which they are performed.

4. Flowchart Benefits 1.Visual Clarity Visualize multiple progresses and their sequence into a single document. 3. Effective Coordination Sequence events and reduce the potential for overburdening team members. Eliminating unnecessary steps help to save time and resources. 2.Instant Communication Clarifying progresses offers an easy, visual method to help team members instantly understand what they should do. 4. Efficiency Increase Flowchart help a designer remove unnecessary steps in a process, as well as errors. 6. Problem Solving Flowcharts break a problem up into easily definable parts. The defined process displayed demonstrates the method of solving a complex problem. 5. Effective Analysis With the help of flowchart, problem can be analyzed in more effective way. 7. Proper Documentation Digital flowcharts serve as a good paperless documentation, which is needed for various purposes, making things more efficient. Created by Edraw

5. A trapezoid with the longer edge at the top indicate a manual operation. The lines with arrows indicate the work flow and connect each process. The reader follows the arrows from the start, usually starting from the top down or from left to right. Apply a rectangle with the upper edge sloping upwards to indicate a manual input. A rectangle stand for an action or operation that must be taken to move to the next step in the process. The process itself and the variables involved are written inside the shape. Use a diamond to stand for decision. Write the specific conditions near the arrows leading from the conditional diamond, which will often be a simple "TRUE" and "FALSE." Every flowchart must have starting and ending points. They are represented by rounded rectangles or ellipse, with the words "Start" and "End" inside. Rules for Flowchart Design Created by Edraw
