Flow Chart Symbols

Flowcharts are used in designing and documenting simple processes or programs. Like other types of diagrams, they help visualize what is going on and thereby help understand a process, and perhaps also find flaws, bottlenecks, and other less-obvious features within it. There are many different types of flowcharts, and each type has its own repertoire of boxes and notational conventions.
Flowchart diagrams consists of symbols of process, decision, data and document, data base, termination or initiation processes, processing loops and conditions. To create an drawn flowchart use professional flowchart maker of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.

How to Build a Flowchart

The ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a professional software for quick creating great looking flowcharts. The vector stencils from object libraries allows you to use RapidDraw technology. By the clicking on direction arrows one can add new object to flowcharts. This technology gives to users the ability to fast creating visualization for the structural data.
Learn the basics of flowcharting and see how to build create a flowchart using ConceptDraw automatic drawing tools.

Flowchart Programming Project. Flowchart Examples

Flowcharts can be used in designing and documenting both simple and complex processes or programs and, similar to the other types of diagrams, they can help visualize what happens and so help understand some definite process, and, as a result, find flaws, bottlenecks and other features within it.

How to Dramatically Reduce Drawing Time - New connection modes

The innovative ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology included in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful drawing tool that changes the way diagrams are produced.
While making the drawing process easier and faster.

This is more than enough versatility to draw any type of diagram with any degree of complexity.

Cross-Functional Flowchart (Swim Lanes)

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming software provides vector shapes and connector tools for quick and easy drawing diagrams for business, technology, science and education.
Use flowchart maker of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enhanced with solutions from ConceptDraw Solution Park to create diagrams to present and explain structures, process flows, logical relationships, networks, design schemes and other visually organized information and knowledge.
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 example "Design elements - Events BPMN 2.0" is included in the Business Process Diagram solution from the Business Processes area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Swim Lane Flowchart Symbols

Use the set of special professionally developed swim lane flowchart symbols - single, multiple, vertical and horizontal lanes from the Swimlanes and Swimlanes BPMN 1.2 libraries from the Business Process Diagram solution, the Swim Lanes library from the Business Process Mapping solution as the perfect basis for your Swim Lane Flowcharts of processes, algorithms and procedures.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Auto-connection mode - This is more than enough versatility to draw any type of diagram with any degree of complexity.

How should diagramming software work? Is it possible to develop a diagram as quickly as the ideas come to you? The innovative Auto-connection mode is what you need to start draw.

MS Visio Look a Like Diagrams

No need for any special drawing skills to create professional looking diagrams outside of your knowledge base. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM takes care of the technical details, allowing you to focus on your job, not the drawing.
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM delivers full-functioned alternative to MS Visio. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM supports import of Visio files. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM supports flowcharting, swimlane, orgchart, project chart, mind map, decision tree, cause and effect, charts and graphs, and many other diagram types.

Flowchart design. Flowchart symbols, shapes, stencils and icons

A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents an algorithm, workflow or process, showing the steps as boxes of various kinds - flowchart symbols, and their order by connecting them with arrows.
Mavericks have always desired to stand apart and gorgeous design is the recipe for that. Any business graphic document will be more understandable if will use an expository color scheme for their parts. Flowchart design makes versatile presenting and explaining of the process and gives a fresh view that distinguishes it from black and white flowcharts on a paper. Workflow diagram or process flow diagrams become more understandable to ordinary people when it use minimum symbols and special signs.
The best design can be accomplished by starting from any of the suitable Conceptdraw examples. Pick one of them and begin to input proper text into each Flowchart symbols and shapes. Apply less colors in the document and don't turn into rainbow your diagram, three or four will be enough, also note that business process flowchart may not contain bright color hues. The next clue is to use identical colors for same flowchart shape types.

Cross-functional flowcharts are powerful and useful tool for visualizing and analyzing complex business processes which requires involvement of multiple people, teams or even departments. They let clearly represent a sequence of the process steps, the order of operations, relationships between processes and responsible functional units (such as departments or positions).

Electrical Symbols — Resistors

A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. Resistors may be used to reduce current flow, and, at the same time, may act to lower voltage levels within circuits. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to limit current flow, to adjust signal levels, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines among other uses. Fixed resistors have resistances that only change slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical activity.

26 libraries of the Electrical Engineering Solution of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM make your electrical diagramming simple, efficient, and effective. You can simply and quickly drop the ready-to-use objects from libraries into your document to create the electrical diagram.

Solution value is added by the basic flow chart template and shapes' libraries of flowchart notation. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM flow chart creator lets one depict the processes of any complexity and length, as well as design the Flowchart either vertically or horizontally.

Business Process Flowchart Symbols

The business process flowchart symbols used for business process mapping are predefined by Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) and actually have their roots in the data processing diagrams and programming flow charts. Business Process flowchart symbols provide drawing business process flowcharts, diagrams and maps of any complexity.

Swim Lane Diagrams

Swim Lane diagrams are the variety of process flow diagrams and are based on the IDEF3 standard. They were developed by Lynn Shostack for usage in projecting. With their help organization diagrams are combined with process flow, as they visually display an object of the production system which is charged with given concrete processes in general flow of processes of the production system.
