We have developed an interface that allows Process Mining of BPCS.
What does this mean?
Most organisations know how their business processes are supposed to behave.
But are the processes being used as intended? Are programs being executed as planned?
From this mined data, there is a capability to create workflows - "reverse engineering of BPCS"
For example, you can see the flow of your order processes using either program numbers or descriptions.
There is also substantial audit data. This application can answer questions like;
Which users are using the same programs?
Does a certain user ever execute a particular program?
Does a user ever use the Inventory Management programs?
Has anyone working in Finance used Inventory Maintenance?
There is a semantic capability that includes an Ontology (hierarchy) of BPCS programs.
Creating an ontology has two major benefits;
All the programs have descriptions that appear in reports.
For example, instead of just displaying program names - INV180D or INV160D1
the reports can display - 'Maintain Alternate Item' or 'Maintain Item Class'.
The second benefit is that programs are grouped together semantically.
For example, all the Inventory Maintenance programs are grouped together.
So reporting or queries can be done by individual program or group.
If you would like to know more please don not hesitate to contact me.
