End process if unresolvable. 10. **Shipping**: Items shipped via courier. 11. **Delivery**: Items delivered to customer. 12. **End** --- **Tip:** To draw this, use: - Ovals for Start/End, - Rectangles for each process/action step, - Diamonds for decision points (“Is Inventory Available?”, “Passes Quality Inspection?”), - Connect with arrows showing the flow direction.
