SAP Signavio Process Intelligence provides a set of metrics that includes predefined SiGNAL expressions. This library of metrics can be reused to calculate KPIs.
Some predefined metrics work directly without customizing them. Some, on the other hand, contain variables that may need to be adjusted. The predefined SiGNAL code of the metric can also be customized.
In addition, metrics can be shared between different workspaces by exporting and importing. Pay attention to the user roles, depending on the role in the process, certain functions are available regarding metrics:
User Roles and Functions Regarding Metrics
Users with the manager role can do the following:
- Add metrics to a process
