Trouble with BPMN Sub Process 

I'm in the beginning stages of learning BPMN, so any advice regarding the following would be very helpful!

We have an online payment process where the user clicks a link to begin the payment process.  After the link is clicked, I get their payment options (minimum amount due and payoff amount, specifically) and deliver them to the user.  This essentially ends one process that is part of the entire payment process.  Following is how I modeled this.

 

The above model illustrates how the user can get their payment options.  When a payment amount is selected it, along with basic account information, is sent to a third party payment company; thus another process has begun.  Following is how I've begun modeling this, and I'm not comfortable at all with how it's turned out.

I'm having a difficult time trying to get the "Get Payment Options" submodel to fit into the entire scheme of things.  When that first process ends, I can't figure out how to connect it to the rest of the payment process.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated...

Re: Trouble with BPMN Sub Process 

Well, above is what I've come up with so far.  I'd greatly appreciate anyone's input letting me know if it makes any sense, what I can do to improve it, or if any violations were committed.  The event messages, by the way, are intended to represent the capture data of HTML form posts.  There is a lot of that going on, unfortunately, due to all of the parties involved in this rather complex process.

Thanks,

vinny

I have always loved cooking. I learned from my Grandma June and her kitchen was her sanctuary, a small, warm sunlit space filled with jars of spices, stacks of cookbooks, and the comforting smell of something always on the stove or baking in the oven. Grandma June was as great a cook as she was a teacher to me. She never followed a recipe “to...
Now, I know, I don’t know what kind of new intro BPO may require, but at least I can promise you upfront that I have something different to say about Business Process Outsourcing or simply BPO.
