# Add business process

You can set up a flow for business processes of these types:

- **Value chain**
- **Phase**
- **Group**
- **Supporting process**

You usually do so to indicate how the business processes in the business process hierarchy are related.

To add a business process to a flow, you can choose from the business processes that are defined in the business process hierarchy of the current solution.

If you add a business process to a flow, and you select:

- A lane, the business process is added to the lane.
- A flow element, the business process is added to the right of the selected element.
- No lane or flow element, the business process is added to the top lane.
