What is It
What is a Flowchart?
Every now and then, you come across different troubleshooting flowcharts
especially when you service in a computer system. These are normally in the form of
a decision tree which gradually focuses on a solution based on the criteria set. The
usefulness of your flowchart depends on how you manage the problems that are
answerable using a simple True/False solution. A well-crafted flowchart can shorten
the problem solving time.
3
Flowcharts are easy to understand diagrams that show the different steps in
solving a specific problem. Easiness is the key to make flowchart more useful in
communicating how processes works, and for documenting how to do a specific task.

5. Connector

6. Arrow Lines
Flow Lines Symbol
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.
1. Identify Tasks. You must list all the tasks in a process in chronological order.
Consider the following questions as your guide:
2. Organize and Document Tasks. Begin with a rounded rectangle labeled START.
From there, go through the sequences which must include every action and decision
in the intended order. Use arrows to connect them with one another and to indicate
the direction of the process flow. Decisions should be directed by an arrow from the
decision diamond to whatever possible solutions are available. The arrow should also
be labeled with a decision, such as YES, or a NO. The termination of the process
must be marked by a rounded rectangle labeled FINISH or END.
3. Test. Double-check the flow to make sure that you haven’t overlooked anything.

Other than a flowchart, there are several elements that you can still use to
represent your process flows, such as:

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
In the data processing cycle example below, Input/ Output Devices are
represented by a rectangle. The rectangles don’t resemble the actual devices but give
you information without unnecessary visual clutter. The same logic goes with the
flow of the data and how they are being processed, stored, and retrieved from the
CPU and computer memory.

A loop diagram aids you visualizing how items in a system are interrelated. It
consists of a set of nodes that represents the item, and edges that each represents a
connection between two items.

Lesson
The essence of having a flowchart in the process analysis is for the effective
delivery of ideas especially if you are dealing with a technical person. A flowchart
explains the process clearly through symbols and text.
What’s In
What’s New
Direction: Arrange the following steps in developing flowchart. Put the number (1-
7) on a separate sheet of paper.
9
____________3. Put the steps in chronological sequence. Sometimes it's easier to
start with the last step and work back to the first step.
____________4. Assign flowchart symbols such as boxes, diamonds, and triangles.
____________5. Review and title the flowchart.
____________6. Assemble the right people to develop the flowchart— those
operators, technicians, or office workers who are actually involved in
the process.
____________7. List the steps, activities, and decisions to be charted. If your team is
not sure about a step, mark it to be investigated later.
In this lesson, you will understand the reasons why you need to:
MISTAKE-PROOFING
Mistake cannot be avoided sometimes when making flowcharts, but the
chances for errors in the process can be reduced by deviating from the usual
steps or actions that have resulted in mistakes. Mistake-proofing solutions
can eliminate redundant process actions and give way to new and untried
methods that provide better solutions.

the device is oriented. It’s like a program which works only one way. If not used in
that manner, it simply won’t work. It’s design strategy that does way with having to
teach the user how to use the device, thus eliminating the risk for error in use.
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:
Below is a sequence of 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.
11
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. Define the process to be flowcharted, and the purpose for flowcharting it.
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.

Assessment
____________1. Work through all the steps in your chart to make sure they
are clear and exhaustive, and that there is no open-ended node
remained.
____________2. Indicates the beginning or end of a flowchart.
____________3. Represent a step in a process. This is the most common component
of a flowchart.
____________4. Shows a step that decides the next step in a process. This is
commonly a yes/no or true/false question.
____________5. Shows the process’ direction. Each flowline connects two blocks.
____________6. An optional step here is to style your chart with different shapes and
color to make it easier to follow.
____________7. Flowcharts should be made easily accessible to all parties involved.
____________8. Represents an individual step or activity in the process.
____________9. shows where an in-process measurement occurs.
____________10. is a mark, sign, or word that indicates, signifies, or is understood
as representing an idea, object, or relationship.
