Task mining - the ability to classify several tasks at once

Task mining - the ability to classify several tasks at once

At the Task Classification stage, after filtering out specific applications, it should be possible to classify several tasks at the same time within specific applications. This solution greatly simplifies task classification.

    Classifying several tasks as one is currently not in our development backlog.

    We suggest a different and more structured approach to classification (in your example):

    1. Apply a wildcard by opening one of the tasks you want to call the same and edit the "Selected element".

    2. In the selected element, apply a wildcard to merge tasks together - in your example you can for example remove the cell value to ensure those tasks are all considered the same
      \AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Exce||XLSTART||PERSONAL.XLSB||Arkusz1||SA$5||SheetChange

    3. Apply the wildcard and you'll see all the matching tasks will automatically be merged

    4. Give a name to the merged task (or exclude it).
