Role required: sn_process_mining_analyst, sn_process_mining_power_user, or sn_process_mining_admin

Repeating pattern finding definition displays the repetition of a specific order of steps. This brings the focus to the areas where you want to improve or automate certain parts or the process that are revisited.

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to Improvement opportunity definition page.  
   For information about the Improvement opportunity definition page, see [Set improvement opportunities](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ugNOY98QBCvmJ~EwRTKM_w "Set improvement opportunities to find areas of improvement by which teams could optimize a process. You can either select from a list of rules available to you or set your own rules. Based on the rules set by you, you can view your areas of improvement.").
2. Select Create on the Repeating pattern card.  
   For a particular type of automated finding, you can create a maximum of two automated findings.
3. Provide details in the Define section.
