Please insert a start node (from the toolbar) into the flowchart first.
Then we open the hierarchy ''Connection Questions'' from the entry ''Tutorial Printer Problems'' in the left menu.
We drag the questions from the left hierarchy into the editor pane and connect the nodes.
Please insert ''Connection Flow'' into the text field as the name of the flowchart.
After saving the editor the flowchart looks as depicted in the image below.

!!! Defining the Initial Questionnaire
After the definition of all subsequent problem areas, we define the entry of the knowledge base.
Here, the user is asked about the general problem with the printer and delegated to the already defined problem areas.
We define the entry of the knowledge base, where the user is asked about the general problem with the printer.
