All 5 process group have at least 1 Process in each knowledge area and PMBOK describe 49 processes those are important and balance are hidden in Project Management Process Group & Knowledge Area Mapping chart (Page -25 of PMBOK 6th edition) – are you agree with this? Saving Changes...
Executing Process group has no scope, schedule and cost processes because you have to execute other supporting processes to execute project work, for instance in executing process group there is Acquire Resources, Develop Team and Manage Team.
Because you do not execute scope, schedule and cost. You execute activities that will impact scope, schedule and cost. So, the place to put related process is Monitoring and Controlling process group.That is not the same with quality, resources, communications, risk, procurement and stakeholders where you execute things directly related to them.(Sergio luis Conte) Saving Changes...
You can also print this out on his website. This will sum up the vision of what the PMBOK is discussing, understanding the flow and why each process would happen. (and of course not all projects would require all processes to be done) Saving Changes...
The only and only knowledge area (4 -Integration) which have a process(es) at every Process Group (it has 7 processes). this knowledge area is the most important area and I believe the major PMI question comes from it.
You know it it is Integration ( PM used to integrate every piece of project ).

I would say balance is not hidden, it is explained in the PMBOK by the interrelationship of processes across all process group and KAs. Such as outputs from one process may become inputs to other process/processes. Saving Changes...
There aren't any hidden processes. The chart explains how the knowledge areas and processes are interconnected. The outputs of an earlier process become the inputs to the next process. Saving Changes...
