A rapidly changing environment, in terms of technology and market, forces companies to keep their business processes aligned with current and upcoming requirements. This is still a major issue in modern process oriented information systems, where improvements on process models require considerable effort to implement them in a technical infrastructure.
We address this problem by lifting technical details into BPMN 2.0 process models and present a configuration wizard for these process models in the open-source modeling tool Oryx. This wizard includes a consistency checking mechanism to automatically discover inconsistencies in the data dependencies of a process model. Immediate feedback after changes to the model eliminates a crucial source of errors when configuring or redesigning business process models, leading to more efficient process implementation.
