Context and Motivation: The Business Use Case Model (BUCM) formalized in the Rational Unified Process (RUP) defines stereotypes of elements refining the UML Use Case Model for coarse-grained business processes modeling (BPM). The Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) Business Process Diagram (BPD) is designed for workflow-based (i.e. fine-grained) BPM. These are frameworks that can possibly be complementary for enterprise modeling. Question/Problem: The semantically richer BPMN BPD can be used instead of UML activity diagrams for operational BPM when the BUCM is used for tactical BPM. Principal ideas/results: The common use of the BUCM and BPMN BPD requires anchoring of elements in between the frameworks to ensure traceability. Traceable models increase their overall consistency. Contribution: The paper allowed to set up traceability rules for the combined use of these frameworks.
