Optimization view
You can refresh the data displayed in the Optimize tab at any time using the Reload data option in the menu bar.
The Reload data option is only available when there is no data load or transformation running.
The process graph displays the end-to-end process for the executed process. It allows you to explore all the different variants—that is, the various paths the process can take from start to finish.
You can select the node and edge metrics to be displayed using the process graph utility bar.
Take the following steps to select a different activity metric for the process graph.
- Select the activity metric icon
from the process graph utility bar.
- Select a different metric from the list of available metrics.
Metric | Description |
---|---|
Number of traces | The number of traces for the process. |
Average cycle time | The average time it takes to execute the activity. |
Take the following steps to select a different edge metric for the process graph.
- Select the edge metric icon
from the process graph utility bar.
- Select a different metric from the list of available metrics.
The following table describes the available edge metrics.
Metric | Description |
---|---|
Number of traces | The number of traces for the process. |
Number of transisitions | The total number of transitions. |
Average troughput time | The average time it takes to go from the start node to the next node. |
Metric | Description |
---|---|
Number of traces | The number of traces for the process. |
Number of variants | The total number of process variants. |
Average trace time | The average time it takes to execute the trace. |
Conformance rate | The percentage of traces that conform to the reference model. A higher conformance rate means there is a greater degree of conformance to the reference model. |
Automation rate | The percentage of automated events in the end-to-end process. |
The most significant inefficiencies identified for your process are displayed in the Process inefficiencies section.
The following table describes the different types of inefficiencies that can be identified.
Inefficiency | Description |
Bottleneck | Activities that take double the average throughput time or activities that have highest throughput time. |
Manual processing | Activities that take double the average manual processing time or activities that have highest manual processing time. |
Low automation | Activities that have an automation rate less than the average automation rate. |
Rework | Activities that have multiple occurrences in a single case. |
In addition to viewing details from the inefficiencies cards in the Optimize tab, you can directly access the Process Optimization app for a single agentic process by selecting the Open in Process Mining button.
You can go directly to the applicable capability in the Process Optimization app in Process Mining to dive deeper into the observations from the process analytics provided in the Optimize tab. Select the Try it option on the card to open the Process Optimization app in a new browser tab.
- Uncover inefficiencies: Displays the Summary dashboard where you can identify more inefficiencies from the process graph and apply filters. Refer to Identifying process inefficiencies for more information.
- Compare versions: Displays the Summary dashboard in Compare mode where you can copmare two sets of paths from your process. Refer to Compare for more information.
- Monitor conformance: Displays the Conformance checking dashboard that contains information that helps you determine whether the process complies with the Discover process model or the Import BPMN model. Refer to Conformance checking for more information.
