Process

This page describes a concept which is part of our glossary

A process is a sequence of procedures, each to be carried out by a human worker or a computer processor. Processes define what order the procedures must be completed in, and which things may be done at the same time. Usually each procedure must be carried out by a specific role. Procedures can be hierarchical in that some of the procedures may be other processes, and they may also involve events and schedules.
