Business Process Modeller (BPM)

Lifecycle Services' library of standard business processes for Dynamics 365 Finance and SCM implementations — used for fit-gap analysis and process documentation.

The Business Process Modeller (BPM) is a feature of Lifecycle Services (LCS) that provides a library of standard business processes for Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management implementations — procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, record-to-report, hire-to-retire, and many others — documented as flow diagrams with embedded task descriptions. Implementation teams use BPM for fit-gap analysis (walking through standard processes and identifying customer-specific deviations), process documentation (the final BPM tree becomes a documented operational reference), and task linking (BPM tasks link to Task Recorder scripts that demonstrate the actual application steps). Customers customise BPM trees per their specific organisation; the result is a living process-documentation artefact maintained throughout the system's life.
