The PROSIM® Lite software allows you to

	Organize your business process by major value delivery scenarios;
	Drill down or pivot to different views of your process architecture;
	Identify business objects, critical states of those objects, and the processes that must occur to get to a state;
	Capture multiple role views of the execution of a process step;
	Capture detailed process characteristics such as resource allocation rules and flow-time distributions for processes;
	Publish your knowledge base on the World Wide Web;
	Index into distributed corporate information sources with process knowledge map;
	Package and distribute standardized process knowledge with the PROSIM® Lite Viewer;
	Show cross organization processes with swim lanes;
	Spell check element documentation.

HTML, XML, SVG, and Visio® Generation

The PROSIM® Lite software now offers export capability to a variety of formats, enhancing the display, distribution, and publishing of your modeling work.

When you generate models as HTML, the PROSIM® Lite software will create individual *.htm pages for each model, diagram, and model element (processes, junctions, and referents) including the corresponding diagram graphics and all associated documentation like descriptions, notes, and sources. The HTML files are automatically hyperlinked allowing you to jump among related pages in the project. Select the Microsoft HTML Help Project option to compile the generated files into a *.chm Help project. The compiled Help project allows you to distribute and view PROSIM® Lite projects in a single, Windows standard file.

Each published HTML page can optionally be generated with an e-mail link to enable an end user to provide feedback to the knowledge author. The e-mail capability includes a subject line that lists the name of the project, diagram, or element that is the subject of the page on which the link appears.

XML generation lets you generate a Java applet of your PROSIM® Lite project. The generated applet includes diagram graphics, elements, and all associated documentation. You can render the applet in your favorite Web browser for easy viewing.

The new SVG generation feature translates PROSIM® Lite diagrams to W3C's Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format that can then be imported into numerous graphics software.

The Visio® generation feature translates your PROSIM® Lite diagram graphics into fully functional Visio® drawings. You can directly map specific PROSIM® Lite graphic elements to available Visio® shapes during the Visio generation process.

Visio® and Microsoft® Project® 2000/2002 Import

Import Visio® drawings and Microsoft Project® databases into the PROSIM Lite® software and use the PROSIM® Lite powerful modeling capabilities to develop and expand your original drawings and schedules.

When you import Visio® drawings, the PROSIM® Lite software allows to designate which PROSIM® Lite graphic elements will be used to represent each incoming Visio® shape. The PROSIM® Lite software will use these defined mappings to rebuild your Visio® drawings as process models.

Import from Microsoft Project 2000 and 2002 and apply your scheduling constraints to your process modeling work. The PROSIM® Lite software translates Project tasks, task durations, and task resources into their corresponding process model elements. The PROSIM® Lite software even translates relationships between tasks, automatically assigning the appropriate link and junction types to related processes in the new PROSIM® Lite model.
