Many software programs are available to help you record and document information. For example:
• CASE TOOLS You can use CASE tools at every stage of systems development. This chapter contains several examples of CASE tools. Part B of the Systems Analyst’s Toolkit describes other features and capabilities of CASE tools.
• PRODUCTIVITY SOFTWARE Productivity software includes word processing, spreadsheet, database management, presentation graphics, and collaboration software programs. Although Microsoft Office is the best-known set of productivity software programs, other vendors offer products in each of these categories.
• GRAPHIC MODELING SOFTWARE Microsoft Visio is a popular graphic modeling tool that can produce a wide range of charts and diagrams. Visio includes a library of templates, stencils, and shapes. An analyst can use Visio to create many types of visual models, including business processes, flowcharts, network diagrams, organization charts, and many more. For example, in Figure 4-28 the analyst used drag-and-drop shapes to represent a business process.
