9.4.2 Process Monitor

The Process Monitor is used to supervise the current stage of the process for different instances. After integration with an application, you can invoke the workflow. After invoking, the workflow goes through all the stages defined. The Process Monitor displays all the completed stages, current stage, and future stages. Your user group must be mapped to the function role WFMACC (Workflow Monitor Access) to access the Process Monitor page. For the list of the PMF Roles, see the Process Modelling Framework Roles section.

This is a sample of the Process Monitor page in PMF.
