Specifying monitoring criteria

In this lesson, you will define the measurements you want to show to the executives.

IBM® WebSphere® Business Monitor retrieves business measures, the raw data from running business process, and displays them in a business space. For this tutorial, the executives want to see the data by country and city, which is known as dimensional analysis. First, you create a dimension. Then you create several key performance indicators (KPIs), which are calculated values that are significant to running the business. Two of these KPIs are Percentage of Orders Shipped and Average process Duration.

To specify what should be monitored, complete the following steps:

  1. Click the canvas, and then click Business Measures tab and then the Monitored Values tab.
  2. In the % Per Branch column, select the three check boxes (See the image in the next step.)
  3. In the Processing Time column, Select the check box for each process element except the Calculate Shipping Charges process element. Save your work.
