Process Maps
Process maps are interactive flow charts. They link to programs, browses, related documents, and other process maps using advanced features of .NET technology. Process maps diagram EAM best practices in hierarchical order. Swim lanes, the gray stripes on the background, visually separate functional areas, such as conceptual (Setup) or departmental (Purchasing).
You can access the EAM process maps through any of the Easy On Boarding vertical industry process maps. Each vertical industry map has an EAM option near the bottom of the screen.
