Add an external connection

When a part of a process resides outside of the process that you are mapping and it cannot be mapped for whatever reason, for example if part of the process is the responsibility of a different company, you can mark an input or output flow line as 'externally connected' to indicate this. Hints can be added to provide users with an explanation.

1.Right-click the flow line and choose Externally Connected.

Note: You can change the display of the icon by right-clicking it and choosing Properties. To add a hint, right-click the icon and choose Hint Text.
