BPMN provides modelers with the capability of showing additional information about a Process that is not directly related to the Sequence Flow or Message Flow of the Process. At this point, BPMN provides three (3) standard Artifacts: Associations, Groups, and a Text Annotations. Additional Artifacts may be added to the BPMN specification in later versions. A modeler or modeling tool may extend a BPMN diagram and add new types of Artifacts to a Diagram. Any new Artifact must follow the Sequence Flow and Message Flow connection rules. Associations can be used to link Artifacts to Flow Objects.
