 Primary purpose of subprocesses is process diagram simplification by decomposition. Depicting subprocess expanded makes the diagram more complicated, hence it's usually better to use collapsed representation. Primary purpose of subprocesses is process diagram simplification by decomposition.

-The overarching process / subprocess logic should not depend on the subprocess internals. As an example, at the diagrams above two flows exit from both approval and signing subprocesses. Whatever happens inside the subprocesses, it comes down either to "OK" or to "not OK" option.+  * The overarching process / subprocess logic should not depend on the subprocess internals.
