New General Access Features
General Access features are features that are fully released and turned on by default, though may still be disabled on a temporary basis in the Early Access page under Admin → Server Settings → Early Access. Disable General Access features when your team has additional training and communications that must be performed in your organization before enabling. These features will be turned to “Always on” at a later date, typically about a quarter after release to General Access.
New Diagram Experience
The diagramming experience is updated with a modern and more spacious look.

Process Metrics
Consume operational metric insights in the context of your process diagrams with Process Metrics. Overlay metrics on your diagram to relate operational insights, such as average activity duration, customer interaction score, and cost to the process. Use these insights to tell a compelling story, backed up with numbers, or show how well a process is performing within the context of the process itself.

Shape your narrative or focus on the needs of a particular audience by adding paths through the diagram that focus on both the process steps and metrics only associated with the selected steps of the path.

Value Stream Maps
Value Stream Maps (VSM) enable customers to find and eliminate waste. Create Value Stream Maps in Process360 Live by using VSM shapes and setting the diagram type Value Stream Map, which will enable the VSM Timeline. Process Metrics (referenced above) are utilized to display VSM databoxes in a more modern and clean look. Diagram Defined Custom Properties are utilized to enable custom property values specific to a VSM diagram. A basic VSM template is also included.

New Product Configurations
The following features, previously in Early Access, are now released as Product Configurations and will continue to be toggleable on or off in their fully released state.
Enhanced Audit Service
Enhanced auditing insights are now available via REST API. Get more granular insights on who is using Process360 Live, what they are doing, and when they are doing it. Analyze this information in a data analytics tool of your choosing to obtain metrics on process improvement engagement by your organization.
Note: Enhanced Audit Service is default set to on, although if your organization enabled or disabled this feature during Early Access the product configuration is set to the state the feature was in at the time of upgrade to v19.0. iGrafx recommends this feature be turned on so the system starts logging events, even if you do not intend to query the logs at this time.
