Answer 1

Process analysis necessarily occurs on levels. A high-level process diagram shows major processes.

Answer 2

A collection of related activities and tasks within a process.

Answer 3

A process that represents one of a number of processes that when connected form a larger business process. Sub-processes are generally independent and can be included as sub-processes in a number of business processes simultaneously.

Answer 4

Process analysis necessarily occurs on levels. A high-level process diagram shows major processes. Each major process is typically divided into sub-processes which are represented on separate process diagrams. Those processes, in turn, may be sub-divided into sub-processes. There is no logical limit to the number of times we may sub-divide processes into sub-processes. We repeat it until we understand the process in sufficient detail to successfully redesign or improve it. The smallest sub-processes we identify in any given analysis effort are arbitrarily called activities. See Process Hierarchy for one possible set of naming conventions.

Answer 5

A set of related activities and tasks within a process.

Answer 6

A process that is enacted or called from another (initiating) process (or sub process), and which forms part of the overall (initiating) process. Multiple levels of sub process may be supported.

Answer 7

A Process that is included within another Process. The Sub-Process can be in a collapsed view that hides its details. A Sub-Process can be in an expanded view that shows its details within the view of the Process that it is contained in. A Sub-Process shares the same shape as the Task, which is a rectangle that has rounded corner

Answer 8

A process that is enacted or called from another (initiating) process (or sub process), which forms part of the overall (initiating) process. Multiple levels of sub process may be supported.

Answer 9

A Process that is included within another Process. The Sub-Process can be in a collapsed view that hides its details. A Sub-Process can be in an expanded view that shows its details within the view of the Process that it is contained in. A Sub-Process shares the same shape as the Task, which is a rectangle that has rounded corners.
