  Configure ping-pong finding definitions to view a pattern where a record bounces back and forth between two steps without interruption.
* **[Configure extra step finding definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/CexcRW~9P3R7EvHivy8jsw)**   
  Configure an extra-step finding definition to view a pattern where routes differ by one additional step.
* **[Configure slow transitions](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/KDG96AwQJowCCGIJS2JuQg)**   
  Configure a slow transitions finding definition to view a pattern where clusters of records have an unusual duration that's higher than the average duration of another group of records.
* **[Configure extreme duration finding definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/e6k9gP9ehgiPwXXDmZ3Fqg)**   
  Configure an extreme duration finding definition to view a pattern where transitions take significantly longer than the usual duration between the steps.
* **[Configure extreme repetitions finding definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ZzbmneVumSKZ2sAJDpP_Jg)**   
  Configure an extreme repetitions finding definition to view a pattern where a transition repeats more than the usual repetition range between the steps.
* **[Configure repeating pattern finding definition](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/4SEoq0X2PB1r1~KbRzV5UQ)**   
  Configure a repeating pattern finding definition to view a pattern with a series of repeating sequence of steps.
