Use cases or business process maps, what technique to use?

A list of business analysis techniques is pretty extensive and from year to year new techniques appear, or become more formalised, and are adopted by business analysts all over the world. Some techniques become more popular and are widely used and some are used rare or only when a specific need arises. But definitely there are techniques that became very popular and are used on a daily basis and even become buzz words for some people. These techniques are mainly used to create solution design and they are business process maps, use cases, user stories, wireframes and business rules. Sometimes even business analysts are confused how they should create solution design and what techniques they should use.

Mainly this confusion is about two popular techniques – use cases and process maps and even more experienced business analyst do not completely understand the difference between those two. In this article I want to shed some light on the difference between process maps and use cases.
