First steps
1. When starting a process model, all involved departments and/or company parts should be defined. This will be managed by so-called swimlanes, also simply called lanes. The single lanes represent subzones, e.g. departments in the company. A lane and a start event is already displayed within our newly created model. Firstly, the process definition name must be changed to 'Onboarding' on the right side.

4. For the first step, the task “create a personnel file” should be processed. An activity has to be placed behind the start event. By selecting the activity symbol in the left band and drag into the model with focus on the start event, the activity is added. The labeling can be done immediately.

AND Gateway
With an “AND” gateway, it is possible to execute multiple steps of a process instance at the same time. The and/parallel gateway waits for all activities inside the gateway to be finished before going on. In this example, there are two activities to be done at the same time; one for the HR and one for the IT department.
