A system, method, and article of manufacture for editing visual primitives of a transaction flow used by a transaction processing system. A visual representation of a transaction flow containing visual primitives is accessed from a storage device by a digital computer. The visual primitives are then displayed on the visual display. The system then edits the visual primitives in a manner that provides for unrestricted placement of the visual primitives. A visual indicator is displayed if the transaction flow is incomplete. Alphanumeric text can be added to a visual primitive or placed elsewhere within the transaction flow. A connection is automatically established between a pair of visual primitives if the visual primitives overlap one another. Transaction flow templates can be selected and modified by the visual editing system.

Transaction flow editing tool

A system, method, and article of manufacture for displaying visual primitives of a transaction flow through a transaction processing system. A visual representation of a transaction flow containing visual primitives is accessed from a storage device by a digital computer. The digital computer is then used to display the visual primitives of the transaction flow an a visual display in a flexible manner. The visual primitives can be dynamically sized and may display properties of each visual primitive. Configuration information associated with the transaction flow is also shown on the visual display.
