Individual process instances can be examined using You can use the instance list or instance table to examine individual process instances. As Since instance data from the from the Scheer PAS BRIDGE components (Designer, Integration and BPaaS modules ) are different in some respects, the instance displays also differ slightly.

The instance table lists all the instances of the underlying process of an analysis. Open

You can open the instance table by clicking the button via option in the analysis menu.

The process instances are listed on the active dialog window. The heading includes a statement of the total number:

Click on an instance to select it. The instance details are shown in the sidebar:

The following process instance details are shown:

Process Name
Process ID
Start Date (including time, accurate to the second)
End Date (including time, accurate to the second)
Process Duration (accurate to the second)

Configuring the Instance List

Users can configure the instance list using the buttons in the sidebar:

To enable identification of individual instances, the process ID is always specified as a column. The second standard column is a result of the axis allocation of the analysis:

Adapting the Column Selection

The You can adapt the columns of the instance list can be adapted by the user. This is done by using the . Use option Select Columns button in in the sidebar:

Info
To enable identification of individual instances, the process ID is always specified as a column. Other features can be chosen freely by the user.

	In the Select Columns pop-up window, select dialog, select the features values that you want to create use as a column.
	The selected column contents selected are marked highlighted in color. Click the accept button Click Apply to adopt the selection and reconfigure the instance list.
	The selected columns selected are added to the instance list.
	The You can adjust the column size can be adjusted by moving the tab.
	Change You can change the column order of the display by moving an entire tab to a new position.

Filtering the Instance List

Setting Use option Filter in the sidebar to set a filter for the instance table is possible via the sidebar:

Note
An instance table filter does not affect the underlying analysis. If you exit the instance table, the filter is discarded.

If you have already set a filter for the underlying analysis, this filter will also be applied initially to the instance table:

If various measure-specific filters are used in used in the analysis, these are ored stored for the instance list:

Note
An existing filter that has been changed for the instance table does not affect the underlying analysis. If you exit the instance table, the original filter remains saved in the analysis.

To define a new filter or to change an existing filter, click on the filter display in the sidebar.

Filter The filter settings are opened open in a separate windowdialog. To To create a new filter, select the option Applying the following filter.

An instance filter is configured in accordance with the same principle as the creation of an analysis filter.

Tip
All the settings option for filters are explained in more detail on the Configuring Filters page Refer to Configuring Filters for detailed explanations on all filter options.

You can create as many filters as you wish. Filters can also be nested to any depth you require.

Save the entries to apply the filter to the instance list.

The filter is applied to the instance list. The

The filter properties settings are shown in the sidebar:.

Sorting the Instance List

The You can also ssort the contents of the instance list can also be sorted as required. Click . Click the column you want to sort by:

The instances are sorted according to the selected column. In addition an arrow appears in the top column, indicating whether the data has been sorted in an ascending Image Modified or descending Image Modified order. The Change the direction can be changed by clicking again.

Multi-level sorting is also possible. Select the column by which you wish to sort first and then click on another column while holding down the Shift key. The sorting order is identified by the corresponding numbering of the columns:

Showing Process History

The history You can display the history of the selected process instance selected can be shown using the button Image Removed:. Use option Image Addedto open it.

Process-specific Values for Logging in Process Mining

Information on processes can be evaluated You can evaluate process information in Process Mining, for example in order to identify problems in a process. A pre-requisite for the evaluation is that the required process information required is logged and transferred to Process Mining.

By default the following data is logged:

Current Step
End Date
End Event
Host
Last Update
Process ID
Process Count
Process Duration
Process Name
Step
Step Duration
Start Date
Start Event

If you wish to expand the analysis with additional information on a process instance, you can widen the xUML service and log the values of customer specific fields (also referred to as custom fields or custom values). Each builder Builder model has a process tracing repository that can be used for this purpose.

Illustration: Process Tracing Repository in the Containment Tree of Magic Draw

The process class contains three value operations which can be used to log additional values from String, Float and DateTime fields.

Note

Process Mining tracing can also be used for SOAP Services services not based on a business process. For this please Please use the following operations in the order shown below to do this:

Start
Use Start at the beginning of a SOAP operation.
Value
Use Value as often as necessary.
End
Place End at the end of the SOAP operation.

Using With this approach, you can use Process Mining to analyze the values logged by the SOAP Service.service

The LoanApproval example implements a very simple credit authorization process. You can find further information on this sample example process in the Scheer PAS BRIDGE Documentation > A Simple Business Process.

In the Loan Approval process, additional customer specific custom fields are logged alongside the standard data:

Customer ID
Credit Amount

Illustration: Logging Additional Values for Process Mining

The three value operations each contain four parameters:

Operation

Group	Parameter Name	Type	Description
Process	ProcessName	String	Contains the name of the BPMN process. This value corresponds to the name of the Persistent State Class and must be set manually (for example LoanApproval ).
Process	ProcessID	String	Contains the Process ID. The Process ID can be taken from the object.
Value	Key	String	Contains the name of the customer specific custom field (for example credit amount ). This name appears in Process Mining: when saving an analysis during the axis allocation step. as a possible column in the instance table.
Value	String Float DateTime	String Float DateTime	Contains the value to be logged. This value is shown in the Key column in the instance list. The choice of Value operation is dependent on the value to be logged. Use the appropriate	operation and apply the necessary parameters (String, Float or DateTime).

Note
Insert the logging of customer specific fields custom values only after logging the process start otherwise the additional logs cannot be assigned to the process.
