&nbsp;Hello, I am new to both Bonita and BPM and am exploring their capabilities for our company's use.&nbsp;  
  
My problem:&nbsp;  
  
In the Bonita Modeller, I see only "Event Subprocess" available, while other modelers I have tested have just a plain "subprocess" option. A plain subprocess better suits my needs, because I would like to flow messaging tasks from Aubprocess A to Subprocess B (this appears to be imossible in an event subprocess - no flow going in or out).&nbsp;  
  
My question:&nbsp;  
  
How does one create a plain subprocess in Bonita? If there is an alternate way of solving my problem, I'm all ears.&nbsp;  
  
Best,  
  
Jeff

Hi, for now BPMN Subprocesses are not supported, however you can easily reproduce their behavior using Call Activities and data mapping.

Regards.

Edit: I want to add the following: &nbsp;  
  
I just now stumbled upon Call Activities. Might they be what I'm looking for?&nbsp;  
  
Thanks,
