Functions create events
A Function is the ‘activity’ of a process, and as such uses resources,
time, energy and usually incurs costs. Every function must have at
least one Event as a predecessor, and have at least one Event to
follow it. Text in the Function usually starts with a verb.

The advantage of dividing the initial problem into individual views and
different levels is that the complexity of the business processes is reduced

Functional view
The transactions that transform
performances and the static
relationships between them are
described in the “functional view”. The
term ‘Function’, ‘transaction’ and
‘activity’ are used here synonymously.
Application systems are also included in
the function view, because they
determine the computer-supported
processing rules for activities
