1. Process mining tells us

the service time on the 1
“BO Service Closure”
activity. How can we
discover the tasks that the
users usually execute to
complete this activity?

2. Task Mining records the

user interaction and 4
displays the tasks as a
sub-process of the BO

3. For each task, we know

exactly the productive time,
idle time, and time spent
on other tasks.
