There are several terms in the original post that I'm not sure how they are
being applying (cycle, inter/intra processes, etc.,) but see if this makes
any sense.

There's a technique in flow charts called swimlanes. Think of a swimming
pool and the lanes in the pool.

let's say you have 4 resources involved in a process. Position these four
resources as horizontal lanes across the chart. Now. position the steps for
each process, in proper sequence, in their proper lanes. See the following
examples.

A list user from India stated they are challenged to
create a tangible process flow chart for posting on a
wall. Audience is all employees. This graphic will
also be made available on an Intranet.

The constraints are that it cannot use the form of a
Cycle. The chart or graphic will be used to show
vertical and horizontal processes linked to specific
resources.

The chart or graphic must demonstrate intricate inter
and intra processes as well.
