A new version of Oracle BPM Suite 11.1.1.7
with Adaptive Case Management (ACM) is now available, so what will that
mean for requirements gathering? BPM project requirements can be
documented using Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN 2.0). For
ACM, there is a new notation in the works. It is called Case Management Model and Notation (CMMN).
For now, this notation isn’t included as a modeling tool in the new
version of Oracle BPM Suite 11.1.1.7 with ACM, but it is possible that a
modeling tool could be included in a future release.
What is
CMMN? CMMN is a standard intended to capture the common elements that
Case Management Products use, the same way that BPMN is a standard for
BPM products (such as Oracle BPM). CMMN is created by the Object Management Group (OMG)
and is still in the beta version. In April 2014, OMG released the
second beta version the CMMN 1.0, and the most recent version is
available here.
CMMN
captures some of the elements that are commonly used when talking about
ACM such as Cases, Milestones, and Tasks. It also introduces some
elements that you may not automatically hear when talking about ACM such
as Stages, Events, and Decorators. Here is a quick summary at a few
(but not all) of the elements of CMMN taken from the CMMN spec.
