Exporting Cross Functional Process flow data to excel
i am sure there is a way to do this jut need some guidance.
I have built out some pretty robust process flows for a client that cover cross functional steps in a series of processes. I have the same standard swimlanes across the flows (5 lanes) and for each process have mapped out the key steps, handoffs, approvals, etc... and placed them in the appropriate swimlane for "ownership" of that step. What I am trying to do via export, rather than have to manually type, is create a matrix that can show me across all of the flows what step is in which swimlane. If i have to do some manipluation after export that is fine, i have only thus far been able to export everything but that just leaves me with the raw data. I still have to cut/paste, and move around information. I am trying to get to something that has the swimlanes across the top and the listing of the process steps along the left side and a "check" or "X" in the corresponding swimlanes. Worst case, if i could export the data and have a listing of the step and the swimlane it resides in, i could at least do a data sort. All i have been able to get so far is just a listing of every shape on each flow, the shape ID, comments, and other data points. Is what i am trying to achieve even possible? I am using Visio 2003 and have Excel 2007. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance. Ira |
