Processes
Processes are operations that transform the state of
an object or a person. This can, for example, be an order placed via the
internet: ordering an object or a service creates a liability for the
supplier to deliver, and initiates the transfer of property rights form
one entity to another. Value is added to the object traded by processing
the order and delivering it to the customer. The order then initiates
other processes on the backstage, where the good or service provider prepares
the commodity for being delivered. The electronic handling of processes
is likely to speed them up, to affect factor combinations and to introduce
new processes in the realisation of the same transaction (e.g., authorisation
checks).
