Pinned ideas

PINNED SQL statements in Dashboard Widgets
I think using SQL statements in widgets would be great to leverage the entire potential of the data uploaded to IBM Process Mining. Lots of important and helpful information cannot be displayed today as it's only SQL-like. I don't think that using...
PINNED Filter UI enables having OR between filters (not just AND)
Users want to filter cases for client1 OR client2. They can't without creating a custom filter with javascript -- which they don't like at all

provide more KPI thresholds

For now you can set 3 levels for KPI thresholds and these are coloured red-yellow-green. It would helpful if we were able to define and configure more levels and the colours used for display.

Remove inconsistency for activity work time resolution

When managing "activity working time", the smallest number you can store is 1 minute. When defining "working time" in BPA it offers to work in seconds. In order for both to work together appropriately, "activity working time" should also allow for...

Ability to customize the process flow to have a clearer view of the process

No ability to customize the way that activities appear when there are multiple occurrences
about 1 year ago in IBM Process Mining 1 Future consideration

Alphabetization in ONLY SOME of the dropdown lists, which can have a huge list of variables

Some filters go by execution but with a long and vast list of process steps or attributes it makes it impossible to type ahead and search for specific action. Also when editing a filter the type ahead is disabled

Able to remove filters from process page in dashboard page

Complicated rules on which filters can apply where - eg. Across to the dashboard We must go back and forward to apply filters in process and dashboard rather than being able to remove them in dashboard if they were set in process
about 1 year ago in IBM Process Mining 0 Planned for future release

Long loading waits for dashboards

Loading the dashboard takes about 5 minutes the first time with new data reload etc with no hint to user
about 1 year ago in IBM Process Mining 0

More dashboard elements allowed

Currently only 8 dashboard elements are allowed we should be able to have more like our competitors do
about 1 year ago in IBM Process Mining 1 Functionality already exists

Logs created by Task mining agent does not use host ID for resource name

Logs should use Host ID as this could be a different user
about 1 year ago in IBM Process Mining 1 Not under consideration

Unable to rename applications captured by Task mining agent

Not possible to rename application names, uses process EXE technical name for task mining.
