Summary

We are at the end of this book now, and we have learned how to create process flow diagrams with both the web and desktop editions of Visio. We have learned how we can create flowcharts automatically from an Excel table, and we can save diagrams back into an Excel table. We have seen how we can create a Power Automate Flow from a BPMN diagram, and how we can export to Word, PowerPoint, and Excel. We have learned how can enhance existing master shapes and distribute them to others in a custom template. We have done all of this without using any Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), built into desktop Visio, or any external programming application such as C# or vb.net. We have just scratched the surface of the smartness that Visio is capable of, but this book has to finish somewhere!
