Process the applications

Next in our flowchart is a Process module that represents the Review Application step.

1. Be sure that the Create module is selected so that Arena will automatically connect the

Process to the Create module.

2. Drag a Process module from the Basic Process panel into the model window, placing

it to the right of the Create. Arena will automatically connect the two modules.

As with the Create, the Process module has a default name that we’ll replace later.

Every process flow

starts with a

Create module.

When you simulate

the flowchart,

individual entities

will be created

according to timing

information you

supply in the

Create module

properties. After it’s

created, each entity

moves from the

Create module to

the next shape in

the process flow.

If your Create and

Process weren’t

connected auto-

matically when you

placed the Process,

check the Object >

Auto-Connect menu

to verify that it’s

checked. If it’s not,

select it to turn on

this option.
