Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a custom visual for Microsoft Power BI that supports process mining and business intelligence analysis simultaneously using a single platform. This tool is called BIpm, and it brings the simple, agile, user-friendly, and affordable solution to study process models over multidimensional event logs. The Power BI environment provides many self-service BI and OLAP features that can be exploited through our custom visual aimed at the analysis of process data. The resulting toolset allows for accessing various input data sources and generating online reports and dashboards. Rather than designing and working with reports in the Power BI service on the web, it can be possible to view them in the Power BI mobile apps, and this means BIpm provides a solution to have process mining visualizations on mobiles. Therefore, BIpm can encourage many businesses and organizations to do process mining analysis with business intelligence analytics. Consequently, it yields manag
ers and decision makers to translate discovered insights comprehensively to gain improved decisions and better performance more quickly.
