What’s New? IBM BPM v7.5.1 includes:
 Expanded adoption of BPMN 2.0 standard
 Simplify application implementation with powerful
new modeling constructs
 Import / export BPMN models with other tools …
Easily tap into IBM’s rich industry models
 New integration with IBM Case Manager
 Manage IBM BPM & ICM tasks in one place with
unified inbox
 Link IBM BPM processes into ICM case solutions,
and interact with ICM cases from IBM BPM processes
 Improved asset management, performance, and manageability
 “Refactor” assets into toolkits … Generate process documentation … Compare versions side-by-side
 Experience simpler cluster installation, easier management of Process Server & process instances

IBM BPM 7.5.1 Improves BPMN 2.0 Modeling
Adds more BPMN 2.0 modeling capability with less modeling effort
More BPMN 2.0 constructs …
… from simplified BPMN palette
4
IBM BPM 7.5.1 Adds New BPMN 2.0 Constructs
Increase power, simplicity of executable process models using advanced constructs
Full Set of Message Events
•
More explicit modeling & simplified implementation of
event operations
Event Gateways
•
Wait for one or more message or timeout events to
determine subsequent flow
Event Sub-processes
•
5
Simplifies implementation of asynchronous workflow
driven by message, timer, or error events
IBM BPM 7.5.1 Adds New BPMN 2.0 Constructs
Increase power, simplicity of executable process models using advanced constructs
… simplify modeling
of complex event-driven
workflow
Example:
Event-driven sub-processes

IBM BPM Process Center
BPMN 2.0 Import: “Aware” of Banking Industry Model (IFW)
Easily leverage rich industry content through intelligent import
 Specify import preferences (including use
of toolkits, type of services to generate)
 Review validation summary (including
errors, warnings, and changes made)
 Playback Process Application and begin
reviewing with Business
 View / Manage imported artifacts based
upon source model, version, value chain,
etc.
Tags and Smart Folders created upon Import
(Preserve traceability to source model and provider)

IBM BPM 7.5.1 Enhances Overall Usage Experience
More powerful asset sharing & management, easier installation, faster performance
10
Asset Sharing &
Lifecycle Management
• Guided “refactoring” of shareable application assets into toolkits
• Quick generation & publishing of process documentation
• Side-by-side version comparison (basic)
• Web-based Process Inspector for administration of disconnected
Process Server instances
• Removal of unwanted process apps and toolkits from archive
Performance &
Scalability
• Continued improvements to throughput and concurrency
• Faster task inbox search
Installation
• Easier, faster installation of Proc Center / Proc Server clusters
Security
• Fine-grained authorization of process app management
(terminate, suspend, delete, etc.)
• Secured internal messaging bus
Serviceability
• Built-in collectors for IBM Support Assistant
Expansion
• Process Center Advanced manages different editions
of Process Servers
Process Artifact Refactoring
Simplifies the job of “promoting” reusable components into program-wide Toolkits
• Out of the box refactoring of
process models to leverage
IBM BPM 7.5 Toolkits
• Move process artifacts from
Process Apps to Toolkits
• Able to refactor Advanced
Integration Services
11
Process Documentation Generation
Enables sharing of process implementation details with business stakeholders
• Document and share
Process Application for
business users
• Save document as HTML
or print
12
Side-by-Side Comparison of Versions
Provides greater visibility and governance during change management
• Component-level
difference lists compare
tracks & snapshots of a
Process Application
13
Web-based Process Inspector for Administrators
Improves process visibility & management capabilities for easier operations
• View process instance
status, details
• Act on failed Instances
• Fix instance data
