The vector stencils library "Swimlanes" contains 20 swimlane shapes for drawing business process diagrams (BPMN 2.0) using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"Swim lanes are a visual mechanism of organising and categorising activities, based on cross functional flowcharting, and in BPMN consist of two types: (1) Pool. Represents major participants in a process, typically separating different organisations. A pool contains one or more lanes (like a real swimming pool). A pool can be open (i.e., showing internal detail) when it is depicted as a large rectangle showing one or more lanes, or collapsed (i.e., hiding internal detail) when it is depicted as an empty rectangle stretching the width or height of the diagram. (2) Lane. Used to organise and categorise activities within a pool according to function or role, and depicted as a rectangle stretching the width or height of the pool. A lane contains the flow objects, connecting objects and artifacts." [Business Process Model and Notation. Wikipedia]

The vector stencils library "Events" contains 17 symbols: start, intermediate and end events and none events, message, timer, error, escalation, cancel, compensation, conditional, link, signal, terminate, multiple and parralel multiple events, off-page connectors (catching and throwing).
Use these shapes for drawing business process diagrams (BPMN 2.0) using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
An Event is something that happens during the course of a business process. These events affect the flow of the process and usually have a cause or an impact. There are three types of Events, based on when they affect the flow: Start, Intermediate and End.

The vector stencils library "Data" contains 10 data symbols: data object, collection data object, data input and output, data input and output collections, data store, initiating and non-initiating messages, data association.
Use these shapes for drawing business process diagrams (BPMN 2.0) using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"Artifacts allow developers to bring some more information into the model/ diagram. In this way the model/ diagram becomes more readable. There are three pre-defined Artifacts and they are:
(1) Data objects: Data objects show the reader which data is required or produced in an activity.
(2) Group: A Group is represented with a rounded-corner rectangle and dashed lines. The group is used to group different activities but does not affect the flow in the diagram.
(3) Annotation: An annotation is used to give the reader of the model/ diagram an understandable impression." [Business Process Model and Notation. Wikipedia]

The vector stencils library "Activities" contains 35 symbols for drawing business process diagrams (Business Process Model and Notation) using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"An activity is represented with a rounded-corner rectangle and describes the kind of work which must be done. Task. A task represents a single unit of work that is not or cannot be broken down to a further level of business process detail without diagramming the steps in a procedure (which is not the purpose of BPMN). Sub-process. Used to hide or reveal additional levels of business process detail. When collapsed, a sub-process is indicated by a plus sign against the bottom line of the rectangle; when expanded, the rounded rectangle expands to show all flow objects, connecting objects, and artifacts. Has its own self-contained start and end events; sequence flows from the parent process must not cross the boundary. Transaction. A form of sub-process in which all contained activities must be treated as a whole; i.e., they must all be completed to meet an objective, and if any one of them fails, they must all be compensated (undone). Transactions are differentiated from expanded sub-processes by being surrounded by a double border. Call Activity. A point in the process where a global process or a global Task is reused. A call activity is differentiated from other activity types by a bolded border around the activity area." [Business Process Model and Notation. Wikipedia]

The vector stencils library "Conversations" contains 11 symbols: communication element, compound conversation element, call conversation (global and collaboration), conversation links, pools. Use these shapes for drawing BPMN 2.0 conversation diagrams using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"Conversation-Model.
The new Conversation-Model is used to model a "who with whom and what"-view of processes. All process participants can be included in a compact form of modeling as long as denoting which communication is involved.
Process participants are represented as Pools (collapsed...) in Conversation-Models. The Communication-Shape defines a set of logically related message exchanges which are tied to Pools via Conversation-Links. If there is a multi-instanced Pool (also introduced with BPMN 2.0) involved, a Forked Conversation-Link is used for it.
Furthermore Sub-Conversations can be used to define abstractions." [en.bpmn-community.org/ tutorials/ 34/ ]

The vector stencils library "Gateways" contains 8 symbols of exclusive, event-based, parallel, inclusive and complex gateways.
Use these shapes for creating the business process diagrams using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"Gateway.
A gateway is represented with a diamond shape and determines forking and merging of paths, depending on the conditions expressed.
Exclusive.
Used to create alternative flows in a process because only one of the paths can be taken, it is called exclusive.
Event Based.
The condition determining the path of a process is based on an evaluated event.
Parallel.
Used to create parallel paths without evaluating any conditions.
Inclusive.
Used to create alternative flows where all paths are evaluated.
Exclusive Event Based.
An event is being evaluated to determine which of mutually exclusive paths will be taken.
Complex.
Used to model complex synchronization behavior.
Parallel Event Based.
Two parallel process are started based on an event but there is no evaluation of the event." [Business Process Model and Notation. Wikipedia]

The vector stencils library "Choreographies" contains 28 symbols of choreography tasks, collapsed and expanded choreography sub-processes for drawing business process diagrams (BPMN 2.0).
"Choreography – Tasks performed by
participants and how participants
coordinate interactions via messages. ...
BPMN Choreography.
(1) Sequence of interactions between Participants.
(2) Choreographies exist outside of or in between Pools.
(3) A Choreography Task is an atomic Activity in a Choreography Process.
(4) The task represents an Interaction, which is one or two Message exchanges between two Participants.
(5) Helps to show who initiates the activity and the first message." [omg.org/ news/ meetings/ workshops/ SOA-HC/ presentations-2011/ 14_ MT-2_ Brookshier.pdf]

How to Make a Rapid Draw Object in ConceptDraw  PRO

The Rapid Draw technology is an automatic drawing system. It is designed to significantly reduce the time of creating flowcharts and diagrams. Especially those, consisting from some typical entities. You can extend the standard ConceptDraw PRO object libraries with new objects by customizing any item from any library and assigning it with Rapid Draw features. You can quickly create and edit complex drawings using Rapid Draw technology and your self-created objects.
