Processes
A process describes step by step how a task is done in the company. You write or speak the steps, Universe Memory creates a draft from them, and the person responsible approves it. Universe Memory recognizes decisions by the question mark at the end of the line. Every process can be downloaded as a BPMN file and imported into modeling tools.
