TOGAF: Actor: A person, organization, or system that has a role that initiates or interacts with activities; for example, a sales representative who travels to visit customers. Actors may be internal or external to an organization. In the automotive industry, an original equipment manufacturer would be considered an actor by an automotive dealership that interacts with its supply chain activities.

UAF: Resource Performer: An abstract grouping of elements that can perform Functions. Resource Architectures, Organizational Resources and Resource Artifacts.

BMPN: Participant: A business entity (e.g., a company, company division, or a customer) or a business role (e.g., a buyer or a seller) that controls or is responsible for a business process. If Pools are used, then a Participant would be associated with one Pool. In a Collaboration, Participants are informally known as “Pools”.

TOGAF: Event: An organizational state change that triggers processing events; may originate from inside or outside the organization and may be resolved inside or outside the organization.

UAF: I UAF finns flera olika typer av mekanismer för händelser i alla olika abstraktionslager. Varför skulle händelser hanteras olika i olika abstraktionslager? Exempel är meddelanden, signaler, objektflöden, och kontrollflöden.

Leading Practice: Event: A state change that recognizes the triggering or termination of processing.

VLDS: Livshändelse: Viktig händelse som inträffar vid en specifik tidpunkt i en kunds liv, som leder till att något behöver hanteras.

BPMN: Inom BPMN används flera olika element för att beskriver olika typer av händelser: Start Event, Trigger, Exception, Intermediate Event, End Event.

BPMN: Start Event: An Event that indicates where a particular Process starts. The Start Event starts the flow of the Process and does not have any incoming Sequence Flow, but can have a Trigger. The Start Event is displayed as a circle, drawn with a single thin line.

BPMN: Trigger: A mechanism that detects an occurrence and can cause additional processing in response, such as the start of a business Process. Triggers are associated with Start Events and Intermediate Events and can be of the type: Message, Timer, Conditional, Signal, Link, and Multiple.

BPMN: Exception: An event that occurs during the performance of the Process that causes a diversion from the Normal Flow of the Process. Exceptions can be generated by Intermediate Events, such as time, error, or message.

BPMN: Intermediate Event: An event that occurs after a Process has been started. An Intermediate Event affects the flow of the process by showing where messages and delays are expected, distributing the Normal Flow through exception handling, or showing the extra flow required for compensation. However, an Intermediate Event does not start or directly terminate a process. An Intermediate Event is displayed as a circle, drawn with a thin double line.

BPMN: End Event: An Event that indicates where a path in the process will end. In terms of Sequence Flows, the End Event ends the flow of the Process, and thus, will not have any outgoing Sequence Flows. An End Event can have a specific Result that will appear as a marker within the center of the End Event shape. End Event Results are Message, Error, Compensation, Signal, Link, and Multiple. The End Event shares the same basic shape of the Start Event and Intermediate Event, a circle, but is drawn with a thick single line.

TOGAF: Organization Unit: A self-contained unit of resources with goals, objectives, and measures. Organization units may include external parties and business partner organizations.

UAF: Actual Organization: An actual formal or informal organizational unit.

BMPN: Participant: A business entity (e.g., a company, company division, or a customer) or a business role (e.g., a buyer or a seller) that controls or is responsible for a business process. If Pools are used, then a Participant would be associated with one Pool. In a Collaboration, Participants are informally known as “Pools”.

Leading Practice: Organisational Unit: A self-contained unit of resources with strategic business objectives, critical success factors, goals and measures.

TOGAF: Process: A process represents flow of control between or within functions and/or services (depends on the granularity of definition). Processes represent a sequence of activities that together achieve a specified outcome, can be decomposed into sub-processes, and can show operation of a function or service (at next level of detail). Processes may also be used to link or compose organizations, functions, services, and processes.

SS-EN ISO 9000:2015: Process: Grupp av aktiviteter som samverkar eller påverkar varandra, och som använder underlag (input) för att åstadkomma ett avsett resultat (output, utfall).

Leading Practice: Process Area: The highest level of an abstract categorization of processes.

Leading Practice: Process Group: A categorization and collection of processes into common groups.

Leading Practice: Business Process: A set of structured activities or tasks, with logical behaviour that produce a specific service or product.

Leading Practice: Process Step: conceptual set of behaviours' bound by the scope of a process which, each time it is executed leads to a single change of inputs (form or state) into a single specified output. Each process step is a unit of work normally performed within the constraints of a set of rules by one or more actors in a role that are engaged in changing the state of one or more resources or enterprise objects to create a single desired output.

Leading Practice: Process Activity: part of the actual physical work system which specifies how to complete the change in the form or state of an input, oversee, or even achieve the completion of an interaction with other actors and which results in the making of a complex decision based on knowledge, judgment, experience, and instinct.
