Setting Automated improvement opportunities

Automated improvement opportunities highlight potential areas for process optimization based on a set of prebuilt patterns.

Note: You can have a maximum of 15 automated improvement opportunity definitions for a project.

In Process Mining the following improvement opportunities are available:

  • Configure ping-pong
    Configure a ping-pong definition to view a pattern where a record bounces back and forth between two steps without interruption.
  • Configure extra step
    Configure an extra-step definition to view a pattern where routes differ by one additional step.
  • Configure slow duration on nodes
    Configure a slow duration definition on a node to view a pattern where a group of records stays longer in a step than the average duration of another group.
  • Configure slow duration on transitions
    Configure a slow duration definition on a transition to view a pattern where a group of records take longer to transition between steps than the average duration of another group.
  • Configure extreme repetition
    Configure an extreme repetition definition to view a pattern where a transition repeats more than the usual repetition range between the steps.
  • Configure extreme duration on nodes
    Configure an extreme duration (Node) definition to view a pattern where records stay in a step for a significantly longer duration than usual.
  • Configure extreme duration on transitions
    Configure an extreme duration (Transition) definition to view a pattern where transitions take significantly longer than the usual duration between the steps.
  • Configure repeating pattern
    Configure a repeating pattern definition to view a pattern with a series of repeating sequence of steps.
  • Configure rework
    Configure a rework definition to view a pattern where a step in the process is repeated.
  • Configure high touchpoints on nodes
    Configure a high touchpoints (Node) definition to view a pattern where a group of records in a step gets updated more often compared to another group to progress to any next step.
  • Configure extreme touchpoints on nodes
    Configure an extreme touchpoints (Node) definition to view a pattern where a step requires unusually large number of record updates than the normal range to progress to any next step.
