Dear all,

I studied and understood like this, so I leave a comment

• Facet
  • Thus, nav bar like Process, Organization, Products… etc
• Repository
  • I’m not sure where is the defference between repository and attribute.
• Attribute (Attribute group)
  • the value connected to the process/task like Name, ID, KPI, Role...etc
• Stereotypes
  • like tags admin can set

If you have an opinion, please feel free to leave a comment!

Best,

Hi Iori, 

A facet in CPM is a label for a certain part of the organisation that we can document for them. For example, the System facet is the place in CPM where you document the applications used to support activities in the process. It is nothing more than another word for a category or label of a certain type of information. All organisational information can be found under the “Organization” facet. 

The repository is another word for the total collection of process-related information. So, all the content that you have documented is stored in a database and another name for this collection of information is the repository. 

Attributes are indeed pieces of relevant information (I like to call them enterprise artefacts) that can be connected to an object in CPM. Examples of objects are Tasks, Roles, Systems, KPI, etc… they all have attributes. There is a difference though between an attribute of an object and a connected object. For example: the validity date of an object is an attribute, but if you connect an application to a task, this application is not an attribute of the task, but merely a connected object. 

Stereotypes are indeed like tags that can be assigned to object so that you can filter on them more easily.

Hope this helps and regards, Caspar
