## 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, as well as 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 compliance​.  
{#process-opt-hrsd__table_thr_vgy_d5b__entry__2}

| All standard HR services | Lifecycle Events (if installed) |
|-|-|
| Looks across HRSD 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. | Access automated end-to-end process visibility on multi-relational processes and tables​. |
| Automatically notifies process owners when common issues are detected using process configurations, such as channel performance degradation, KPI obtainment trends (for example, SLA), or too much variation between what is expected versus what is actual. | Quickly find key drivers behind process problems using an AI-based root cause analyzer. |

## End user 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 the data related to HR service cases. For more
information, see [Overview of the Analyst
Workbench](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=analyst-workbench-overview&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-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_optimization_admin | sn_hr_core.admin |
| sn_process_optimization_power_user | sn_hr_core.case_writer |
| sn_process_optimization_analyst | sn_hr_core.basic |
[Table 2. Combinations of roles]

## 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=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-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 such as cases transitioning from the work in progress state to the solution proposed state and analyze the linked processes such as Problem (PRB) records.  
  Note:  
  The content pack activity definitions can be set to either ALL or INCLUDE based on whether the field values are populated or not in the `field_values_selection_type` column in the `promin_activity_def` table, so that the correct number of activities are 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 optimization 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=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-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 also use the available template
configurations to open the Process Mining application from a PA indicator
based on the HR service case data. For more information, see [Integration with Performance Analytics
(PA)](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=integrate-pa&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).
