Specify the symptom to analyze
Based on your selection, you can specify a symptom to analyze and optionally a filter to exclude certain cases from analysis. Both the symptom and the optional filter are preset in the combination that ARIS Process Mining assumes you are looking for. However, you are always able to change and modify them.
The cases are divided into two groups: 'symptomatic cases' and 'non-symptomatic cases', they are categorized into cases affected by the symptom and in cases where the symptom does not occur.
You can change the preset symptom and selection in the corresponding drop-down menus. Based on your selection, ARIS Process Mining has preset a symptom and selection for the root cause analysis, in this example, the Case duration as symptom and Time frame case as additional selection.
