Flowchart
A flowchart is a diagram that uses graphic symbols to depict the nature and flow of the
steps in a process. Another name for this tool is "flow diagram."
What Are the Elements of a Flowchart?
A flowchart is commonly used by systems analysts to visualize the series of processes in a
business system. A flowchart is a useful tool to design an efficient business system and to troubleshoot or
improve an existing system. A flowchart consists of elements, such as the terminator, process, sub
process, decision, arrow lines, and connectors.
1. Terminator A terminator is represented by a small rectangle with curved corners. A terminator
appears at the start and at the end of a flowchart. The end terminator appears only once
on a single flowchart.
2. Process A process is represented by a rectangle. It refers to an action in a business process. It
must be described clearly and concisely. A process can be described using a single verb-
noun phrase; for example, "Order Office Supplies." The same level of detail must be kept
in processes on a single flowchart.
3. Sub-process A sub-process is represented by a rectangle with double lines on each side. A sub-
process is a major process that could be broken up into simpler processes developed
into another flowchart.
4. Decision A decision is represented by a diamond. A process that can answer a decision of
"yes" or "no" requires a decision box.
5. Connector A connector is represented by a small circle or a connector box and is labeled using
letters. A flowchart written on a single page is clearer than a flowchart on several pages.
A connector ensures that the processes are connected logically and correctly on several
pages.
6. Arrow Lines
Arrow lines drawn in one direction, preferably from top to bottom, keep a flowchart clear.
Avoid arrow lines that loop because this could indicate redundancy in the business
process.
Benefits of Using Flowcharts
1. Promote understanding of a process. People may have differing ideas about how a process works. A
flowchart can help you gain agreement about the sequence of steps. Flowcharts promote understanding in
a way that written procedures cannot do. One good flowchart can replace pages of words.
2. Provide a tool for training employees. Because of the way they visually lay out the sequence of
process steps, flowcharts can be very helpful in training employees to perform the process according to
standardized procedures.
3. Identify problem areas and opportunities for process improvement. Once you break down the
process steps and diagram them, problem areas become more visible. It is easy to spot opportunities for
simplifying and refining your process by analyzing decision points, redundant steps, and rework loops.

Basic Flowchart Symbols

1. Oval. Ovals indicate both the starting point and the ending point of the process steps.
2. Box. A box represents an individual step or activity in the process.
3. Diamond. A diamond shows a decision point, such as yes/no or go/no-go. Each path
emerging from the diamond must be labeled with one of the possible answers.
4. Circle. A circle indicates that a particular step is connected to another page or part of
the Flowchart. A letter placed in the circle clarifies the continuation.
5. Triangle. A triangle shows where an in-process measurement occurs.

How do you interpret flowcharts?

A Flowchart will help you understand your process and uncover ways to improve it only if you use it to
analyze what is happening. Interpreting your Flowchart will help you to:
 Determine who is involved in the process.
 Form theories about root causes.
 Identify ways to streamline the process.
 Determine how to implement changes to the process.
 Locate cost-added-only steps.
 Provide training on how the process works or should work.
Steps that will help you through an orderly analysis of your flowchart.

Step 1 - Examine each process step for the following conditions that indicate a need to improve` the process:
Bottlenecks. These points in the process where it slows down may be caused by redundant or unnecessary
steps, rework, lack of capacity, or other factors.
Weak links. These are steps where problems occur because of inadequate training of process workers,
equipment that needs to be repaired or replaced, or insufficient technical documentation. "Inform the drill
leader and improvise" is one of the weak links.
Poorly defined steps. Steps which are not well-defined may be interpreted and performed in a different way
by each person involved, leading to process variation. "Improvise" is a poorly defined step in the weak link
cited above.
Step 2 - Examine each decision symbol. You may want to collect data on how often there is a "yes" or "no" answer
at decision points marked by a diamond shaped symbol. If most decisions go one way rather than the other, you
may be able to remove this decision point.
Step 3 - Examine each rework loop. Processes with numerous checks generate rework and waste.
Examine the activities preceding the rework loop and identify those that need to be improved. Look
for ways to shorten or eliminate the loop.
Step 4 - Examine each activity symbol. Does the step help build a key quality characteristic into the end product? If
not, consider eliminating it.

Types of flowchart
Besides the three levels of detail used to categorize Flowcharts, there are three main types of flowcharts
namely, linear, deployment, and opportunity. The level of detail can be depicted as macro, mini, or micro for each
of these types.
1. Linear Flowchart. A linear flowchart is a diagram that displays the sequence of work steps that make up a
process. This tool can help identify rework and redundant or unnecessary steps within a process.
2. Deployment Flowchart. A deployment flowchart shows the actual process flow and identifies the people or
groups involved at each step. Horizontal lines define customer-supplier relationships. This type of chart shows
where the people or groups fit into the process sequence, and how they relate to one another throughout the process.

How do we construct a linear flowchart?

Following are the seven steps for developing a linear flowchart
1. Define the process to be flowcharted, and the purpose for flowcharting it.
2. Assemble the right people to develop the flowchart—those operators, technicians, or office workers who
are involved in the process.
3. Establish process boundaries—the starting and ending points.
•Identify the major activities or sub processes that are included in the process.
• Determine what is not included in the scope of the process to remove any doubt or confusion
about the boundaries. This may also help establish the scope of related processes.
4. List the steps, activities, and decisions to be charted. If your team is not sure about a step, mark it to be
investigated later.
5. Put the steps in chronological sequence. Sometimes it's easier to start with the last step and work back to
the first step.
6. Assign flowchart symbols such as boxes, diamonds, and triangles.
7. Review and title the Flowchart.

TLE_IACSS9- 12PITD-IIg-h-14
Background Information for Learners

An electrical schematic is a logical representation of the physical connections and layout of an electric
circuit. A well-documented schematic outlines the functionality of an electric circuit and provides the
basis for assembly and troubleshooting of a system. A schematic can contain few or many symbols and
connections and is normally read from left to right, top to bottom.

Symbols

Symbols are quite literally the building blocks to any electrical schematic. Symbols are a pictorial
representation of the electrical component and usually display their respective connection points. The two
most common standards for electrical design symbols are ANSI and IEC.

Device Tags

Marks and tags serve as an identifier to each electrical component on the schematic. They usually begin
with a few letters followed by their assigned order number. Marks help operators distinguish between
many of the same object.

Attributes

Attributes provide a detailed description of an electronic component beside its symbol. In SOLIDWORKS
Electrical, attributes are variables directly linked to the manufacture part library, allowing values to be
displayed or hidden as needed. The manufacturer and reference part number are commonly displayed
symbol attributes. Attribute information is usually then populated on a Bill of Materials (BOM) or list of
parts required to make the system.
Wires

Wires create connections and join components together, completing a circuit. The colour of a wire is
usually indicative of its purpose. For example, green wires in a schematic often indicate the connection is
going to ground.

Wire Labels

Components, wires and cables are assigned: labels, tags, marks or numbers to assist in traceability and allow for
systematic troubleshooting of the design. A typical tagging scheme may include combinations of: device id, wire
type, page number, row number, wire size and order.

Title Block

A title block is the border and text of the drawing that describes the project and current sheet. Common information
displayed in a title block are: project name, company name, job number, company logo, title, author, sheet number,
approvals and page scale.

Once you know how to read an electrical schematic, the next step is to design your own. There always exists the
method of brute force drafting and then there are intelligent tools to bring your designs to fruition quicker. In
SOLIDWORKS Electrical, complex schematics can be created in a matter of minutes and portions of the circuit
copied and saved for re-use. SOLIDWORKS Electrical comes pre-packaged with device libraries containing
thousands of symbols, 2D footprints and manufacturer parts along with a variety of power, control, hydraulic and
pneumatic wire styles to suit any electrical design. The best part is all the built-in tools and library data can be fully
configured as necessary to adhere to industry and company standards.
