## HR Service Delivery
Process Mining configuration model {#process-opt-hrsd__section_fbc_sgy_d5b}

HR Service Delivery
Process Mining configuration model includes process definitions for standard HR services, and a process map that uses multi-dimensional mining for Lifecycle Events if this application is installed.

Process maps and transitions look across your portfolio of HR services to find and visualize problem areas, opportunities for enhancements, and process conformance​.  
{#process-opt-hrsd__table_thr_vgy_d5b__entry__2}

| All standard HR services | Lifecycle Events (if installed) |
|-|-|
| Looks across HR Service Delivery to find deviations and problem areas. | Provides a Lifecycle Event process map using multi-dimensional intelligent mining. |
| Provides a single HR service view, enabling you to drill down to find bottlenecks and other fulfillment issues. | View automated end-to-end processes across multiple related tables​. |
| Automatically notifies process owners when common issues are detected. Issues include channel performance degradation, KPI obtainment trends (for example, SLA), or too much variation between expected and actual results. | Quickly find key drivers behind process problems using an AI-based root cause analyzer. |

## End users and roles {#process-opt-hrsd__section_j5p_qm3_2nb}

If you have the required roles, you can use Analyst Workbench to access the visualized process workflow data and tools for analyzing HR service cases. For more information, see [Overview of the Analyst Workbench](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=analyst-workbench-overview&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).

The following combinations of roles are required for using the Process Mining application with HR Service Delivery.
{#process-opt-hrsd__table_x45_bn3_2nb__entry__2}

| Process Mining role | HR Service Delivery role |
|-|-|
| sn_process_mining_admin | sn_hr_core.admin |
| sn_process_mining_power_user | sn_hr_core.case_writer |
| sn_process_mining_analyst | sn_hr_core.basic |

## Optimization project for HR service cases {#process-opt-hrsd__section_kg1_y1r_fnb}

The HRSD Process Mining content pack (com.sn_hr_process_mining) adds a prebuilt project that includes predefined HR service cases and, if installed, Lifecycle Events cases process model definitions. By default, the project filters cases for the last two quarters. You can also configure a new process project based on the prebuilt project. For more
information, see [Using Process Mining](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=use-process-mining&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).  
The process model definitions include default activity definitions and breakdown definitions for cases that you can use as they are or modify for a custom configuration.

* Use activity definitions to understand state transitions. For example, you can track cases transitioning from the work in progress state to the solution proposed state. You can also analyze linked processes such as Problem (PRB) records.  
  Note:  
  The content pack activity definitions can be set to either ALL or INCLUDE based on whether field values are populated in the `field_values_selection_type` column in the `promin_activity_def` table. This setting determines the number of activities available by default for each project.
* Use breakdown definitions to filter records and analyze a process map by categories. For example, you can filter the HR service case data by different channels, products, assignment groups, and locations.

## Continual Improvement Management initiative for HR cases {#process-opt-hrsd__section_g2y_rbr_fnb}

If the Continual Improvement Management (CIM) application is enabled, you can also use the CIM project from the Analyst Workbench to track the progress of improvement initiatives for HR cases. The improvement initiative and
process mining model are automatically linked. For more information, see [Integration with Continual Improvement Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=integrate-with-continuous-i&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).

## Performance Analytics for HR cases {#process-opt-hrsd__section_dgr_syk_3nb}

If the Performance Analytics (PA) application is enabled, you can use the available template configurations to open the Process Mining application from a PA indicator. The indicator is based on HR service case data. For more information, see [Integration with Performance Analytics (PA)](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=integrate-pa&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).
