What is a primary goal of using business process flows?

The primary goal of using business process flows is to standardize processes and ensure consistency. Business process flows guide users through a series of steps in a process, ensuring that all necessary actions are completed in the correct order and that everyone follows the same procedures. This is particularly valuable in organizations where multiple team members may handle the same types of tasks; by having a standardized flow, the organization can maintain quality and adherence to best practices, leading to improved efficiency and effectiveness.

Standardization contributes to effective onboarding and training, as new employees can quickly learn a defined process. Additionally, when processes are consistent, it allows for better tracking and analysis of performance over time, facilitating enhancements based on gathered insights.

Business process flows are not primarily focused on creating complex data reports, enhancing database security, or minimizing software costs, which are the focuses of different functionalities within the Power Platform.
