Setting Up an Externally Executed Process
For each externally executed (BAM) process you want to monitor, do the following:
1. Define a process model for the process using the Process Development perspective in Software AG Designer. For more information, see the webMethods BPM Process Development Help.
Note:Optimize does not track process steps within external groups and does not display these steps on the Analytics Overview page. For more information, see Working with the Overview Configuration Page.
2. Build and upload the process model, or upload it for analysis only. This copies the process model to the Process Audit database component and makes the process available to Optimize for analysis. For more information about updating a process model for monitoring, see the webMethods BPM Process Development Help.
3. Use the Web Service Data Collector to collect business process data.
For instructions, see Configuring and Using the Web Service Data Collector
