Use a leave request as a simple example. Build the main path first, then add decisions and the route for missing information.
Set the start and finish
Open a blank board and add start and end shapes. Here, the process begins when a request is submitted and ends when the requester receives an outcome.
Add actions and connectors
Place a rectangle for each action: review the request, confirm the outcome, and notify the requester. Connect them in the order the work happens.
Give each decision a clear route
Replace a vague outcome with an Approved? decision. Label its outgoing connectors Yes and No, then show what happens on each path.
Check exceptions, then share
Add a Complete? check before approval. Return an incomplete request to the requester for revision. Follow every route to an end, then invite a teammate to review the flowchart.
Review the process with your team
Keep discussion beside the steps it concerns. Invite colleagues to the same board, leave comments, and update the flow together. Keep supporting documents nearby so handoffs have the context they need.
Draft with AI. Refine the flow yourself.
Describe a process to Boardmix AI to create an initial flowchart. Then edit the steps, labels, and connections. Add exceptions that matter to your work and remove steps that do not belong.
Try a process prompt
Draft a flowchart with AICreate a leave-request flowchart. Check that the request is complete, route it for approval, and show approved, declined, and returned-for-revision paths.
Choose shapes that explain the flow
A flowchart shows actions and decisions in sequence. These four elements cover the basic structure; use labels and connectors to make each route unambiguous.
Start / End
Mark where a process begins or finishes.
Process
Name one action or task in a rectangle.
Decision
Ask a question and label the possible routes.
Flowline
Use an arrow to show which step comes next.
Flowchart maker FAQ
Is Boardmix a free flowchart maker?
Yes. The Free plan includes 1 team workspace, 3 editable boards, and up to 100 objects per board, with standard-definition export. Paid plans offer additional capacity and features. Compare Boardmix plans
Can I start from a template?
Yes. Open a template that fits your process, inspect its structure, and use the available template action to start your own version. Replace the sample steps and decisions with your own. A static example can also help you plan a new chart.
Can teammates edit the same flowchart?
Yes. Invite people to the board and assign the access they need. Work together in real time and use comments to discuss a step or decision without losing its context.
How can I share or export my flowchart?
Share the board with the appropriate access permissions, or export a PDF or image for a document or presentation. Export quality and other options depend on your plan.
How does an AI flowchart generator differ from a flowchart maker?
A flowchart maker lets you build and edit shapes and connections yourself. An AI generator drafts a structure from your description. Boardmix lets you continue editing that draft; AI access and credits depend on your plan.
