AML import

In Celonis Process Management, it is possible to import processes from ARIS. Importing ARIS data requires a customized config file to import ARIS data successfully.

ARIS data should be imported to an empty database unless you are sure that the GUIDs which will be imported do not already exist in the target database.

Configuration for AML import

To import ARIS data, it is required to set up the AML-import converter first. To do so navigate to administration page and click AML import.

To create a new AML-import configuration, enter a name and click New.

Once the new configuration has been created, click Add in the detail content and follow the instructions in the dialogue window to add the file. A custom configuration file is important for ARIS data to be imported successfully.

Import AML data

Once the previous steps are completed, Celonis Process Management is ready to import data from ARIS. Choose Processes > Architecture from the navigation menu and proceed to import setup. ARIS import is available in the toolbar with additional administration functionality.

Dialogue window will be opened where import process can be set up. To start the importing process:

• Select the XML file exported from ARIS and click Add .
• Choose the configuration file created in the previous step section.
• Start the import process by clicking OK .

The process will run in background and will take some time depending on the size of the ARIS xml file. You can watch the event log, as well as download the report of the process in Info-board.

After a successful import you will find the imported processes under Processes > Orphaned. If processes are not visible, refresh the list. It can be also customized that imported Aris processes are part of the process house.
