Associations - QW vs ArchiMate
* If a diagram is about a particular function/process/element in a larger scope, give the diagram the same name as the element. e.g.: A business process cooperation diagram describing the Data Center Facilities Management SSC service would be named: "Data Center Facilities Management".

==== Associations (QualiWare vs ArchiMate) ====
One can make both QualiWare associations (Breaks down to, RelationContext, Documents, Tags....) and/or ArchiMate relationships (lines of particular types).
* For diagrams, always show the appropriate ArchiMate relationships.
* Between diagrams, it's wise and helpful to do a Breaks down to association between objects/elements in your diagram to relevant sub-diagrams (details).
* One may wish to make "hard" QualiWare associations between major functions/processes as "breaks down to" relationships as well. Investigation required as to if this is necessary for the types of reporting we want to do.
