    Note: Do not delete a merge element. WebSphere® Business Modeler generates names for the merge elements relative to when the merge element is added to the canvas. In the monitoring design phase, these names are used to create the monitoring model. Also, you can move the merge elements but do not change the relative left-to-right position of two merges elements.
