P2P Process Flow (simple)
A
Aditya Kumar, Finance AnalystA streamlined version of the Procure-to-Pay flow covering the essentials: requisition, PO creation, delivery, and payment — split across Procurement and Management swimlanes. Use this when you need a quick visual for stakeholder presentations, team onboarding, or process documentation that doesn't need every edge case mapped out.
How to create a P2P Process Flow (simple)
To create a P2P process flow (simple), follow these steps:
01.
Identify your two lanes
Procurement handles the operational steps; Management handles approvals. Two lanes keep it readable.
02.
Start with terminal nodes
Mark Needs Recognition and Final Payment as your start and end states using rounded-rectangle syntax.
03.
Define value range
Set your y-axis scale with appropriate minimum and maximum values.
04.
Define approval gates
Requisition approval and PO approval are your two decision points — both live in the Management lane.
05.
Draw the cross-lane connections
Show where Procurement hands off to Management (requisition → approval) and where Management hands back (approved PO → vendor selection).
06.
Apply light color coding
Use fill:#dbeafe for terminal nodes and fill:#fef3c7 for process steps to create visual hierarchy without noise.

A state machine for reading a continuous stream of 5-byte UART messages from a LiDAR scanner into an embedded system — in real time, with configurable decimation. Rather than capturing everything and filtering later, this design processes bytes as they arrive and skips every Mth message on the fly. Five states handle the full lifecycle: idle, pattern detection, offset alignment, recording, and skipping. Built for embedded systems engineers, robotics researchers, and anyone working with sensor data pipelines where memory is constrained and throughput matters.

System State Diagram
Map how systems, objects, or processes transition between different states based on events or conditions. This template shows all possible states and the triggers that cause transitions — helping teams design robust behavior, catch edge cases, and document how things should work. Essential for software design, workflow automation, or explaining any system that changes over time.
