Access Process Views Inventory

A Process Discoverer View defines a process map that can be visualized in Process Discoverer, with customized settings such as:

  • A log filter, e.g. retain all cases with a case duration of 12 days or more

  • An overlay, e.g. show the average duration overlay

  • A layout option, e.g. show the process map in backbone visualization

We can easily view all available Process Discoverer Views in our workspace through a dedicated page called Process Views Inventory. This page provides a list of all process views available to the user. This list can be filtered based on the name of the view, the event log from which the view is derived, and any keywords (called “tags”) contained in the description of the view. To learn how to save views, see Save Process Discoverer views.

To list all available views, click Inventory in the Portal.

Proces002

This displays an inventory of all the Process Discoverer views in our instance. The inventory contains the following columns:

  • Workflow: The Process Discoverer views.

  • Data source: The event log from which the view was saved.

  • Tag: The description of the saved view.

Proces003

In the inventory shown above, we have six saved workflows. We can double-click a particular workflow to open it in Process discoverer.

When we have many workflows, however, we can filter based on workflow name, data source or tags.

Click Filters to add a filter to the list of views.

Proces004

This displays a window for creating a filter condition.

Proces005

Let’s say we want to display only workflows whose name contains “Sepsis”. To define a condition, we must specify the following.

  • Columns: Either Workflow, Data source, or Tag.

  • Contains: Select an operator, such as contains, equals, starts with, ends with, is empty, is not empty, or is any of.

  • Value: The specific value that the column condition will be compared against.

To display workflows whose name contains “Sepsis”, we set:

  • Columns to Workflow

  • Operator to contains

  • Value to Sepsis.

Proces006

Click out of the filter window to view the result.

Proces007

We can also create filters based on multiple conditions. For instance, we can create a filter that displays workflows where:

  • The Workflow contains “fast cases”.

  • The Tag is not empty.

  • The Data source is either “Procure-to-Pay” or “Sepsis Cases”.

Click the Filters to create a filter. We create the first condition.

Proces008

To add a new filter, click Add filter.

Proces009

When defining multiple conditions, we can specify how Apromore combines the filter — either using AND or OR conditions. Specify this using the dropdown.

Proces010

In the new filter row, change Columns to Tag. In the Operator dropdown, select is not empty.

Proces011

Note

When the is empty or is not empty operator is used, we do not need to specify a value.

Lastly, we specify the third condition. Click Add filter. Change the Columns to Data Source. In Columns, select is any of.

Proces012

When we use the is any of operator, we can enter multiple values. Apromore checks that the condition is the same as any of the entered values. In our case, we enter “Procure-to-Pay” and “Sepsis Cases”. After typing each value, click it to confirm it.

Proces013

Note

The conditions are not case-sensitive.

Click out of the filter window to see the workflow that meets the specified condition.

Proces014

Two of the six workflows meet our filter conditions. We can double-click any of them to open the view in Process discoverer.
