The micro process flow is responsive and adapts to the size of its parent container. If the micro process flow is too long for the parent container’s width, you can choose how it should behave:

• Simple wrap: Steps that don’t fit into the width of the parent container wrap to a new line.

• Overflow: Navigation arrows appear on both sides of the micro process flow, with the number of hidden steps indicated next to each arrow. By clicking the navigation arrows, users can scroll horizontally through all of the steps in the micro process flow.

The micro process flow control supports cozy and compact form factors.

The micro process flow acts as a generic container in which process steps are laid out linearly along the horizontal axis. The control provides the following layout options:

The process steps appear as icons with a circular background. They use semantic colors and provide click events. You can choose from different icons provided by the SAP icon font.

The default steps can be replaced by other controls. The following controls are supported:

• Status indicator
• Micro chart

There are two micro process flow types: one with dependent steps and one with independent steps.

Dependent Steps (Default)

The dependent steps come with a connector line that appears between the process step and the step that follows it. Use this type when the completion of a step is a precondition for the subsequent step.

You can also indicate the state of the transition between two steps with a suitable icon.

Independent steps are not connected and can be processed in any order. Use this type when the user doesn’t need to perform the steps in a linear sequence.

Users often need more information about a step. To provide more details, add an on-click popover for each step. Also add a click event for each step to invoke the popover.

Always exchange the default icons and replace them with icons that best fit your use case and line of business.
