The scenario of flows diagram describes the flows exchanged between the system elements represented.
Two types of diagrams are proposed:
• The Scenario of flows diagrams that describe the flows exchanged in different use scenarios of the object described.
• Scenario of sequence diagrams that describe the chronology of the flows exchanged in different use scenarios of the object described.
*To use Scenario of Application Flows Diagrams, open the Options window and check that IT Architecture > Activate Flow Scenario Sequence Diagrams option is activated.
