What a process map is.
A process map shows the sequence of work in an organization. It starts with an input or trigger, follows the steps and decisions that transform it, and ends with an output or result.
A useful map gives every reader the same view of the current process. Keep the labels concrete, show the exceptions that matter, and use the drawing to discuss delays, rework, and ownership.

Common questions
What is a process map?
It is a visual representation of the steps, decisions, roles, and handoffs involved in completing a process.
What is the difference between a process map and a flowchart?
A process map focuses on understanding a business or service process. A flowchart is the general diagram format often used to draw it.
How detailed should a process map be?
Use enough detail to support the decision at hand. Start with major steps, then add branches and owners where they affect the work.
How can a process map improve work?
It gives people a shared view of the process, making delays, rework, missing decisions, and unclear handoffs easier to discuss.
