Nowadays business process models are a common approach to describe and analyse existing business processes and to create new processes in a structured way. However, with growing complexity of process models there is a lack of comprehensibility. Using existing notations, it is challenging or even impossible to define temporal and logical constraints between process steps that are not directly connected. We demonstrate a declarative approach for representing business processes that allows for configuration, i.e. selection of process steps, based on a component representation. In addition, we present ways to transform a configuration into a procedural process model using BPMN.
