I have to agree with Dan Sturk. Flow charting has a value, but the
costs associated with assembling one far outweigh the benefit.
In the past, our office flow charted processes extensively. It was too
time consuming - even with templates. Finally, to save us, our chief
auditor had the flow chart program deleted. We still gain a thorough
understanding of the processes, but now we don't weigh ourselves
down with the details.
