Welcome to QPR ProcessAnalyzer Wiki! QPR ProcessAnalyzer is a software for turning event and transactional data into visual process analysis and intelligence. Topics in this documentation are divided based on user roles for process analysts, developers and administrators.

For Process Analysts

This section contains information how to get started with QPR ProcessAnalyzer and how to create your first dashboards! This section also describes how to use filters and how to make different kinds of analyses with QPR ProcessAnalyzer.

For Citizen Developers

This section describes how to build ETL scripts that transform the source data into process mining models. There is also a detailed description how the process mining models can be configured so that they are optimal for the desired analyses. Finally, there is reference documentation for all expression language related functionality, that can be used both when writing custom KPI's in dashboards and in the ETL scripts.

Expression Language Reference

SQL Expressions for Snowflake
In-memory expressions: Basic Syntax and Operations / Generic Functions
Generic types (Generic Properties, Array, DateTime, String, Timespan, Dictionary)
In-memory models API (AttributeType, Case, Event, EventLog, EventType, Flow, FlowOccurrence, Variation)
Configuration objects (Dashboard, Datatable, Model, Filter, Diagram, Script, Project, User/Group)
Tabular data (DataFrame, SqlDataFrame, DataFlow)
Machine Learning API / Conformance Checking
Filter Rules JSON
System Library

Create Process Mining Models

For In-memory Models

Data Integrations and Connectors

For System Administrators

This section starts with the planning of QPR ProcessAnalyzer installation. After all requirements have been fulfilled, you can continue with the installation and configuration of QPR ProcessAnalyzer. Finally, learn how to manage users and perform other administrative tasks.

-To build QPR ProcessAnalyzer models, you need to extract data from source systems, transform it to an eventlog format and finally load to process models. To perform these tasks, you can use the ETL scripting platform that is part of QPR ProcessAnalyzer. When the model is created, users can start analyzing and create dashboards.

 == For System Administrators ==
-QPR ProcessAnalyzer requires installing QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server hosted in IIS and two SQL Server databases. All functionality is available in the web UI, which don't require any installations. If there is a need to access on-premise source systems to extract eventlog data, QPR ProcessAnalyzer ScriptLauncher needs to be installed.
+This section starts with the planning of QPR ProcessAnalyzer installation. After all requirements have been fulfilled, you can continue with the installation and configuration of QPR ProcessAnalyzer. Finally, learn how to manage users and perform other administrative tasks.
