BPMN Modeler – Release Notes – August 30, 2016

New and Improved Features:

• Support for older version of Internet Explorer (version 9 and 10) will end in December 2017. Users still using these versions will get a non-blocking notification when they open a session. Microsoft have already deprecated its support of IE 9/10 since January 2016, you can refer to: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsforbusiness/end-of-ie-support for an upgrade. Support for Internet Explorer 11, Edge, Chrome and Firefox will continue after December 2017.
• You can now define directly in the BPMN modeler the Data Type associated with Data Objects and Data Store in a similar fashion that you would do in DMN.
  • All data types are available under the BPMN ribbon in the Data Type dialog.
  • Right-clicking on a Data Object/Store Item, you can select Attributes->Data to define the data type.
  • In BPMN, Data Types are attached to an extra layer of abstraction called Item Definition. To assign a type to an Item Definition, you need to select Data Type from the Definition Type dropdown of the Item Definition.

Bug Fixes:

• Data Objects are now properly serialized to BPMN XML in a choreography.
• In certain condition, a call activity to an external process would return as a task after a save/load.
• Fixed an issue serializing expanded call activity with no children.
