What is DFD

A data flow diagram (DFD) is an important diagram in software development. Data flow diagrams are usually created to visualize the flow of information within a system. A neat and clear DFD can graphically describe a large number of system requirements. While a DFD gives the reader a basic idea of the elements and their connections, our online DFD maker allows you to include more details, such as the ID and location of the processes. In this article, we will show you how to edit IDs and locations in Visual Paradigm’s online DFD editor.
