 |
| A Business Process is a collection of interrelated tasks, which solve a particular business problem or process a
 |
| business event: a claim is received and needs to be processed within 15 days.
 |
| </p>
 |
| <p>
 |
| A business process can be decomposed into several sub-processes, which have their own attributes, but also contribute
 |
| to achieving the goal of the super-process.

 |
| The following process map is done using BPMN 1.2 (2..0 soon)&nbsp;and illustrates a loan underwriting process. The
 |
| entry point is a mail with the loan application received, then the process follow a set of activities to decide if the
 |
| loan is eligible and what kind of loan product we can offer to the borrower and at what financial condition. This
 |
| process as described here is not taking into account the actors of the process. Swim lanes can be added&nbsp;to group
 |
| tasks per actors.
