 ===== Notes =====
-  * Extra comments (optional)
+From performers' (organizational, functional) point of view, they update the price list first, then develop the sales plan and finally fulfill the deal.
+Yet BPMN diagram should be treated literally so if we depict the process this way (see [[#how not to]]) then it would mean that we close exactly one deal per month, which obviously is not the case.
-===== Exceptions =====
+As for the price list, it's usually updated not by a schedule but in responce to market events that may happen any time.
-  * Exceptions, if any
+Therefore, there are three different events in this case, namely a voluntaristic decision to adjust the price list, a monthly deadline for a sales plan, and a purchase request obtained from a client.
+It means three different (yet connected) processes.
+The [[#how to]] diagram depicts them as black box pools, assuming that each process would be expanded on a separate diagram.
+BPMN spec doesn't allow to connect a data association to a pool so one need to use directed associations here (which looks exactly the same).
