Analyzes are created via the Analyses Sidebar and shown as charts in the content area. When creating a new analysis, the user must determine which process data should be analyzed, how the data should appear and whether the data should be filtered. A user-friendly wizard guides the user through these steps.

Creating a new Analysis

To create a new analysis, open the Analysis Sidebar.

Drag the New Analysis link into the Process Analyzer active dialog window.

The Create New Analysis wizard opens in a separate window. Follow the wizard step by step through the configuration process.

Use the buttons at the bottom to navigate through the wizard:

  • Cancel: Closes the wizard without creating an analysis.
  • Back: Goes back to the previous step.
  • Next: Saves the entries and opens the next step.
  • Create analysis: Creates the analysis in the Process Analyzer. This can only be used if the basis data has been set for an analysis.

First decide how you want to create the new analysis:

  • Create New Analysis: Configure the analysis from scratch (default setting when creating a new analysis).
  • Use Template: Use a template that already contains basis data for the analysis (see chapter Templates).

Step 1: Choosing a Chart Type



Choose a chart type for your analysis. The chart type selected is marked with a colored frame.

There are nine chart types to choose from:

  • Tachometer
  • Pie Chart
  • Line Chart
  • Area Chart
  • Area Spline Chart
  • Column Chart
  • Bar Chart
  • Spline Chart
  • Radar chart

Once a chart type has been selected, you can use the button Next to proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Selecting a Process 


In the second step, the process on which the analysis is to be based is specified.

The wizard automatically lists all processes that deliver data to Scheer PAS Process Mining. The processes are sorted alphabetically in accordance with profiles and within a profile.

Select the process you want to analyze and click Next.


Step 3: Allocating Axes 



Once all the necessary instance attributes have been defined, the chart can be created using the Create Analysis button.

If you wish to save data filters, select Next at this point to open the wizard in step 4.

Step 4: Creating Filters 

Only the first three steps for the creation of an analysis are obligatory. The creation of a filter is optional.

In step 4, the option Applying no filter is selected by default.

You can still create an analysis directly without a filter using the Create Analysis button.

When you have created the filters you want, use the Create Analysis button to create the chart in the content area.


The chart is created in the Process Analyzer.

The analysis settings are shown in the sidebar.

Use the sidebar to assign the analysis a name and a description. The axis allocation and filter settings can also be edited via the sidebar: Clicking on the properties in the sidebar opens a dialog box in which the settings can be changed.

It can be the case when creating an analysis that the axis allocation selected or the filter settings do not deliver any results. In such cases, the message No data found matching your configuration is shown instead of a chart:

The settings can be adjusted via the sidebar.
