Convert BPMN patterns into Tallyfy templates

How to map BPMN patterns to Tallyfy templates

Many organizations have existing business processes documented in Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) diagrams. Tallyfy provides a more accessible and executable approach to implementing these workflows.

Understanding BPMN challenges

Traditional BPMN diagrams present several challenges:

  • Complex symbols and notation require specialized knowledge
  • Static documentation doesn’t drive actual execution
  • Difficult for non-technical users to understand
  • Changes require diagramming skills and software
  • Gap between process documentation and implementation

Advantages of Tallyfy’s approach

Tallyfy offers significant improvements over traditional BPMN:

  • Executable processes - Templates become live, trackable workflows
  • No-code implementation - No diagramming or technical skills required
  • User-friendly interface - Intuitive for all stakeholders
  • Real-time updates - Changes apply immediately across the organization
  • Built-in tracking - Monitor progress and identify bottlenecks

Common BPMN patterns in Tallyfy

Tallyfy supports all standard BPMN flow patterns through its template system:

BPMN PatternTallyfy Implementation
Sequential FlowDefault step ordering
Parallel Split (AND)Multiple concurrent steps
Exclusive Gateway (XOR)Conditional branching
Inclusive Gateway (OR)Multiple conditional paths
SynchronizationWait steps and dependencies
Structured LoopRepetition within processes
Deferred ChoiceDynamic assignment rules

Conversion process overview

  1. Identify your existing BPMN processes and patterns
  2. Determine the core workflow logic (sequence, conditions, assignments)
  3. Create a new Tallyfy template
  4. Implement each pattern using Tallyfy’s step configuration
  5. Add form fields, conditions, and automations as needed
  6. Test the template to ensure it matches the intended workflow
  7. Launch and monitor the process

Documenting > Templates

Tallyfy templates function as reusable blueprints that enable standardized business processes through step-by-step workflows and document formats while ensuring consistent execution across organizations.

Pro > Essentials

Tallyfy streamlines business process documentation through three template types: Procedures for step-by-step workflows Documents for standardized forms and Forms for efficient data collection enabling organizations to maintain operational consistency and track progress effectively.

Templates > Create a template

Tallyfy enables template creation through three methods: building from scratch manually entering steps using AI assistance to generate structure or uploading existing documents which get automatically converted into digital workflow templates.

Templates > Sample Templates

A comprehensive template library system offers pre-built industry workflows that can be accessed imported and customized across multiple business categories while following organizational best practices to streamline process implementation.
