|Sequential order ||[[Image:elemente_1_Sequenz.jpg|left|200px|SequentielleSequential Folgeorder]]||At a sequential order the activities are executed after each other .
|-
|Parallel branching ||[[Image:Elemente_2_Verzweigung.jpg|left|200px|ParalleleParallel Verzweigungbranching]]||A parallel branching means that all parallel branched activities to be executed have to be completed before the following activity can be started with. It is not necessary that the parallel activities are executed at the same time. They can be deferredly carried out, too.
|-
|Case distinction ||[[Image:Elemente_3_Fallunterscheidung.jpg|left|200px|FallunterscheidungCase distinction]]||Decision either or. The case distinction is a branching in alternative processes depending on definition of the subsequent conditions.
|-
|Uniting ||[[Image:Elemente_4_Zusammenfuehrung.jpg|left|200px|ZusammenführungUniting]]||The end of a parallel as the case may be alternative execution or also an integration of process chains is indicated by the uniting.
|-
|Loop ||[[Image:Elemente_5_Schleife.jpg|left|200px|SchleifeLoop]]||A repatriation (loop, cycle) is represented by means of case distinction and uniting. The activities included in the loop are executed as long as the condition for the continuation is given.
