In ProcessPro, a node refers to an activity, process link, or decision point within a process map. Nodes are the blocks on the map that contain each activity/ decision/ process link:

Stand-alone nodes, also referred to as parent activities and process links, are given whole numbers (1, 2, 3, etc).

Decisions start with a whole number. This number cannot be seen on the map or the diagram content menu. Any linked activities or process links will have a decimal that corresponds to its position below the decision.

Any child activities or process links will have a decimal that corresponds to its position in the branch (x.1, x.2, x.3, etc).

When activities, process links and decisions are rearranged; the numbering will update according to their new position on the map.
