This Process Maps doesn’t design an Reverse Bussiness Engeenier. You can design what you have or what you want in your Bussiness Enviroment.
The Solution Composer doesn’t has the workflow funcionality. To use this funcionality there are some options:
1st) You can create workflows with ABAP Workbench. (Tradictional)
2nd) You can design the Business Process in SAP Solution Manager and use the funcionality BPMon (Business Process Monitor)
3rd) You can use the XI or PI (Process Interface, the new name of the SAP Solution), and create logs for each process control. These logs provides some info to undestand what is going on in your process.
Okay?
If some doubts don’t hesitate.
