Processesincluding

Processesincluding is not a standard term in most fields, but may appear as a concatenated label or identifier in software and data contexts. It often results from removing spaces in phrases such as "processes including" to create a single token for use in code, file names, or data schemas. Because it lacks a defined meaning by itself, its interpretation depends on the surrounding documentation.

In practice, processesincluding could denote a collection of processes that includes one or more sub-processes or related processes. For example, an API endpoint named /api/processesincluding might return all processes along with their nested sub-processes, if documented accordingly. In a database schema, a field called processesincluding could be used to flag whether a fetch should include related processes or only primary ones. In many process-modeling contexts, the underlying concept is common: inclusive grouping of related activities to support holistic analysis or reporting.

Because "processesincluding" is not a conventional term, it is advisable to use clearer naming. Prefer descriptive identifiers such as processes_including_subprocesses or all_related_processes, and provide explicit definitions in accompanying documentation. Clarify what counts as a sub-process, what relationships are included (dependencies, siblings, or hierarchies), and how the data is structured.
