A Solution Manager business scenario contains a set of processes that define a business task in a comprehensive and self-contained manner. A business scenario is imported as a package with the BusinessScenario stereotype
Each business scenario contains a diagram, which shows the business
processes it contains:
The following tools are available in a business scenario diagram:
| Tool | Description |

Note: Though you should not create logical components, organization units,
master data, or general or non-URL project documentation in PowerDesigner, you can
add existing instances of these objects to your diagram by dragging and dropping
them from the Browser.
A scenario may also include a scenario flow diagram, which can show the
processes in the scenario as swimming pools, in which you can draw message flows between
steps in different processes. To prepare your scenario flow diagram:
- If you have not imported a scenario flow diagram for the scenario from the server, then right-click the scenario and select Show Scenario Flow Diagram to display it.
- Drag and drop processes which must exchange messages from the Browser to the diagram.
- Right-click the scenario and select Update Scenario Flow Diagram Layout to show the steps and other sub-objects in the process symbols.
- Draw messages between process steps as necessary, using the
Flow tool:
