Planned BPMN Flow

1. HR submits new employee request (Start)
2. Manager approval (User Task)
3. Parallel onboarding tasks:
   • IT setup: create accounts, provision hardware (Service Tasks)
   • HR paperwork: generate contract, benefits enrollment (Service Tasks)
   • Facilities: assign desk, building access (Service Tasks)
4. Welcome email (Service Task)
5. First-day checklist (User Task)
6. Onboarding complete (End)
