Attribute management

Attribute groups

In this section, you define how attributes are grouped and sorted across the workspace.

• Before you create any groups, all attributes are listed in Ungrouped attributes. This means that by default there are no attribute groups in SAP Signavio Process Collaboration Hub. You can manage attribute visibility in the Attribute visibility section of the settings without creating groups.
• When you create attribute groups, only the attributes added to a group are shown, depending on visibility settings.
• Each attribute can only belong to one group. After you move an attribute to a group, the attribute is no longer listed in Ungrouped attributes.

1. Select a Notation set from the drop-down list.

Recreate the diagram overview from Classic SAP Signavio Process Collaboration Hub

In the classic version of SAP Signavio Process Collaboration Hub, detailed diagram information is calculated automatically and shown in diagram overviews.

If you want to show the same information in the diagram overview, add the following attributes to an attribute group:

Attribute name	Attribute type	BPMN	Value chain	DMN
Activities	Text	x
Input/Output Documents	Text or Dictionary list	x
Dictionary items	Dictionary list	x	x	x
IT Systems	Dictionary list	x
Linked diagrams	Model link list	x	x	x
Linked documents	File list	x
Linking diagrams	Model link list	x	x	x
Parent processes	Model link list	x	x
Process result	Text	x
Roles	Text	x
Process Level	Text	x	x
Process Trigger	Text	x

Which attributes are shown in the overview depends on the notation.

Setting attribute visibility

In the Attribute visibility section, you can set which attributes are visible for an audience.

Header attributes

You can select the attributes that are shown for each audience at the top of the diagram page. The following attributes are available:

• Process level

  The process level can be counted from level 1 or level 0. When you disable this attribute, your users won’t see the process level pyramid.

• Revision number

• Last updated/published

• Last author

Diagram and element attributes

You can select which attributes are shown to an audience. The attributes visibility of dictionary entries is set per dictionary category.

Follow these steps:

1. Select an audience.

2. Select a notation set.

3. Select a level. You can choose between diagram attributes or element attributes.

4. If you have attribute groups, select an attribute group.

5. Enable or disable Show group to show or hide the complete attribute group.

6. When you have enabled Show group, you can set the visibility of each attribute.

   • For new groups, the default setting is Invisible.
