Leverage a new relation to represent process hierarchies

Processes are typically structured in graphs representing the relationships between diverse hierarchy levels and dependencies of processes and subprocesses. On the other hand, fact sheet hierarchies in SAP LeanIX are maintained with strict parent-child relations, where every child fact sheet can only have one parent.

We've resolved this mismatch when syncing processes from SAP Signavio into your workspace by introducing a new many-to-many relation on business context fact sheets and eliminating the current workaround of using the 'Required by' relations.

This new 'Parent/Child Business Context' relation can be added to the meta model when configuring the SAP Signavio integration to ensure that process hierarchies and variants are well represented when traversing the relations explorer and leveraging clustering on reports.
