Example 1: Cross-Functional Flowchart — Providing Telecom Services

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the Cross-Functional Flowchart library from the Cross-Functional Flowcharts Solution. An experienced user spent 15 minutes creating this sample.

This sample shows the Process Flowchart representing the process of providing the telecommunication services. The services in a telecommunication field are typically offered by the communications companies or telecommunications providers and are intended for ensuring the communication at the distance by means of modern telecommunication technologies and equipment. To be successfully realized and introduced, the process of providing the telecom services needs to be well defined and represented in a simple form. The Process Flow Chart is ideally suited for this purpose; it allows you to specify the repeating steps necessary for the implementation of this process and present them visually. In addition, it can be analyzed to improve the efficiency of the process and to diagnose the quality issues that require resolution. There are defined two horizontal lanes in this Process Flowchart: Customer and Customer Service Representative, the process steps are visually distributed within them. The diagram is read from the top down in the direction indicated by arrows.

Example 2: Cross-Functional Flowchart — Credit Approval Process

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the "Cross-Functional Flowchart" library from the Cross-Functional Flowcharts solution. An experienced user spent 3 minutes creating this sample.

This Process Flowchart sample shows the credit approval process, which is a process needed to be passed by an individual or a business (debtor or borrower) for receiving permission from the creditor (lender) to take the credit (loan) with defined goal or to pay for the goods or services with delay on a limited period. The credit approval process involves a number of stages and several participants, responsible persons and departments: Customer, Sales, Management, and Credit Department. In connection with the distribution of actions and responsibilities between the participants of a process, the steps are placed at the different swim lanes, that in this case is very convenient, clear and easily readable. You can observe the names of responsible at the caption of the diagram. The ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software and the Process Flowcharts solution, in particular, can effectively help you to construct the Process Flowcharts of any complexity with the aid of ready-made vector objects, cross functional flowchart examples and cross functional flowchart template.

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the "Cross-Functional Flowchart" library from the Cross-Functional Flowcharts solution. An experienced user spent 15 minutes creating this sample.

This example shows a Process Workflow diagram describing an order processing flow. There are identified the main steps of the ordering process and represented as a chain on the flowchart, with beginning at the Start point and finishing at the End point. The process steps are divided on the value-added steps and cost-added-only steps, and separated between two corresponding columns. The first ones are the steps used for making the product or service and executed from the top down when everything works ideally, and the second ones represent the actions of checking and fixing problems or inefficiencies. Trying to find the best tool to construct the Process Flowchart, pay your attention to the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software and powerful tools of the Process Flowcharts solution. This Process Flowchart made the ordering process clear and visible, so it can be successfully used for documenting and analysis, for future automation of the process or any process-building actions inside of the company.

Example 6: Swimlane Process Mapping Diagram — Payroll Process

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the Cross-Functional Flowchart library from the Cross-Functional Flowcharts Solution. An experienced user spent 25 minutes creating this sample.

This Swimlane Process Mapping Diagram example shows a payroll process in a clear visual manner so that anyone involved in the process can quickly see which appropriate steps should be taken. The payroll process is a process including several steps and having as the end result the payment salary for the employees. First is realized the accounting of worked hours and overtime for each employee of a given enterprise on the basis of the employees' reports, at this, it is also realized the contacting with employees who didn't report their hours in some reasons. Then, the payment is calculated according to the set rates and finally at the end of each agreed period is produced the payment to the employees with the net of taxes. The process steps are located within the diagram's swim lines Human Resources, Employee, Manager, Payroll, Payroll Vendor. Save your time and efforts using the pre-made vector shapes and connectors from the ConceptDraw's Cross-Functional Flowcharts solution when creating your own Cross functional flow chart.
