Flowchart
Flowchart:
A
flowchart is a
graphical or
symbolic
representation of
a process. Each
step in the
process is
represented by
the different
symbol and
contains a short
description of the
process step. The
flowchart symbols
are linked
together with
arrows.
Table of
flowchart
symbols:
Flowchart symbols
are also known as
flowchart shapes,
Business process
map symbols.
OFF-Page
connector:
Off-page
connector shows
continuation of a
process flowchart
onto another
page. When using
them in
conjunction with
connectors it’s
best to
differentiate the
labels.
Data (I/O):
The
data flowchart
shape indicates
inputs to and
outputs from a
process. As such,
the shape is more
often referred to
as an I/O shape
than a Data
shape.
Documents:
Pretty self-
explanatory the
Document
flowchart symbol
is for a process
step that
produces a
document.
Manual input:
Manual input
flowchart shapes
show process
steps where the
operator / user is
prompted for
information that
must be manually
input into a
system.
Magnetic
Disk(Data
base):
The most
universally
recognizable
symbol for a data
storage location,
this flowchart
shape depicts a
data base.
Internal
storage:
Used in
programming
flowcharts to
mean information
stored in memory,
as opposed to on
a file
