Common questions

What is a flowchart template?

A ready-drawn map of a common process: its steps, the questions that change the path, and who does each part. Start from one and change the wording, roles and branches to match how your business works.

What do the flowchart symbols mean?

A rounded box is a step someone does, a diamond is a question with a labelled path for each answer, and the circles mark where the process starts and ends. Arrows show what happens next.

What’s the difference between a swimlane diagram and a flowchart?

A swimlane diagram is a flowchart split into lanes, one per role or team, so each step sits in the lane of whoever does it. You see the hand-offs at a glance. Any of these templates can take lanes.

Can I edit these flowcharts?

Yes. Each one opens in Wikidoc as a process map. Drag steps, rename lanes, add or remove decisions, and attach your SOPs to the steps. Export it as PNG, SVG or PDF when you need a copy.

Are the flowchart templates free?

Yes. The Free plan includes up to 10 process maps from templates, free forever, alongside 3 maps you draw or generate yourself.
