of which have nothing to configure and cannot be replaced or deleted. The simply represents
entry and exit points for the subprocess.
Note
While it is possible to place a GoSub action within a subprocess, doing so will hide the
subprocess from any GoSub action, in order to avoid circular referencing (aka an infinite
loop).
