Overview

Trace the process. Follow the evidence.

DataTrail connects BPMN processes, source code, API contracts and field-level lineage in one evidence-led workbench. Explore mappings, dependencies and change impact with the supporting evidence in view, while gaps and conflicting information stay visible instead of being smoothed over. The demonstration uses fictional organizations and data.

Who it is for

Process analysts, data specialists and engineering teams investigating system dependencies.

01 / The problem

The problem

A process diagram alone cannot show which source fields, API contracts and code paths support each business step.

02 / How it works

How it works

DataTrail links BPMN processes to source code, API contracts and field-level lineage while keeping evidence, gaps and conflicts visible.

What it does

  • BPMN process and system mappings
  • Field-level data lineage
  • Evidence, dependency and impact views

In practice

  1. 01Trace a business field through the systems represented in the demo.
  2. 02Review mapping gaps before drawing conclusions about change impact.
