[jdiaz]

Hi all, im a newby using EA, and i have a question.

following with the tutorial part II, in the second point, they are recommending to "Map a Use Case Model to the Business Process Model", please, anybody could to explain me how can i do it in EA?

Tnk's in advance

Hi Javier,
You can map relationships between models using relationship matrix (you can find it in view). Inside it select Source: Process Model and Target: Use Case Model
Link type: Realisation
Source Type: Event
Target Type: UseCase

Now you can specify the relationship between each use case and event from Business Process Model.
I hope that is what you needed

I guess the answer for this task (Connect your business process model to use case and software design models for end to end traceability) is here, without using Relationship Matrix: http://www.sparxsystems.com/resources/traceability.html

Hi,
Also a newbee, following Javier's original post (im also in the process of documenting a baseline architecture).

What would be the "next" level below the UC's .. ?
Should i always put in the domain model ? or maybe go directly from each UC' to respective Component .. ?

Anyone who have tried this ?
I dont want to overload my diagrams ...

Hi Lars,

It really depends on your individual approach. Firstly think of which diagrams you are going to use in modeling. If you want to use both Component and Domain models, and you have enough data, go from Use Cases to respective Components. If you think that Domain Model can help you in building Component model, use it firstly.
