What is the business process flow template?

Process flow diagrams (PDFs) are flowcharts that illustrate how major components of a business relate to each other. You usually see them used in industrial plants, like in the fields of chemical engineering and process engineering, but you can use a PDF for other processes as well. Use our free business process flow template to map out your business process from start to finish. This free template was created in collaboration with SharePoint.
