Activity Statistics diagram
An Activity Statistics diagram is a visual representation of a business process flow that displays time and cost statistics for the process activities. Activity Statistics diagrams are automatically generated when a default monitor model is generated and the diagrams can be displayed in the Diagrams tab of the generated dashboard. You can change the rendering of the diagram in the Diagrams tab to display different statistics.
If the business process diagram does not contain any process activities, an Activity Statistics Diagram tab is not generated.
In the Activity Statistics diagram, you can select one of the following radio buttons to display the corresponding KPI and its average value for each process activity:
- Total Time
- The average total time it takes for all process instances to complete an activity.
- Execution Time
- The average amount of time for all process instances between when work is started on an activity and when the work is completed.
- Wait Time
- The average amount of time for all process instances between when an activity is available to be worked on and when work on the activity is started.
- Cost
- Average value of the Cost KPI for the activity for all process instances.
- Resource Cost
- Average value of the Resource Cost KPI for the activity for all process instances.
- Labor Cost
- Average value of the Labor Cost KPI for the activity for all process instances.
The value of the Cost, Labor Cost, and Resource Cost KPIs is always 0 (zero) by default. However, you can change the value in IBM Process Designer by selecting an activity in the process diagram and then selecting the KPIs tab. In the KPIs tab, you can select a default KPI and clear the Use KPI defaults check box, then specify a new value for the KPI.
