New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Process Mining Process Simulations

Power AutomateThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 2nd of the new functionality in the Process mining section is process mining process simulations.

Process simulations enable you to simulate the impact of proposed changes in your business processes. Modeled changes include resource management and updates in a process flow. A process simulation compares performance and financial key performance indicators (KPIs) between original and simulated processes.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview:  Sep 22, 2024
General Availability: Dec 2024

Feature Details

Process simulations enable you to model various scenarios, run the simulation based on an existing process, and compare the simulation results with the original process (for example, duration of cases, and cost of cases).

You can model the following proposals:

  • Resource management: Add and remove users, and change the performance and cost per resource.
  • Manage durations and wait times for activities in business processes.
  • Manage process flow: Define follow-up activities and their distribution.
  • Manage working hours and timetables.

Simulation results offer a summary of global KPIs per process and detailed insights to analyze the impact of each activity.
