# Data Objects
|
|
|
|
In BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation), a data object represents the information or data used and produced by activities within a business process. It represents the data elements or artifacts that are relevant to the process and provides a way to model the flow of data through the process.
|
|
They help in clarifying the data flow and dependencies within the process, making it easier to understand how information is utilized and transformed throughout the process execution.

### Data Input
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Represents the data or information that is required as an input to initiate or execute a particular task or process. BPMN input defines the data elements that need to be provided or available for the task to be performed.
|
|
|
|
### Data Output
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Signifies the data or information that is generated or produced as a result of executing a task or process. BPMN output describes the data elements that are produced or modified during the execution of the task.
|
|
|
|
### Data Object Reference
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
A Data Object in BPMN typically represents a specific piece of information or a data entity that is exchanged or manipulated during the course of a business process. It can represent both physical and digital data. Examples of Data Objects include documents, forms, reports, databases, or any other data entity relevant to the process.
|
|
|
|
### Data Store
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
A Data Store represents a persistent storage location where data is stored and retrieved during the course of a process. It typically represents a database, file system, or any other storage mechanism. Data Stores are used to depict the long-term storage of data that can be accessed by multiple activities or tasks within the process. They provide a centralized location for data storage and retrieval.
