TIM Wiki / NEW TIM 6 Documentation

The Business Activity Monitoring Client graphically displays the chronology of deployed processes. In the Gantt-Chart the activities' and tasks' durations are represented as bars. Therefore, it is necessary to specify durations for all activities and to activate CPM.

Element	Description
1	In this section temporal progress is depicted by a diagram. The vertical black line indicates the current time. Each activity has its own dedicated timeline with its length corresponding to the estimated time required for processing assignments. An activity that is currently undergoing processing is highlighted in blue. An activity is highlighted in green if it is successfully completed within the predefined time frame. Furthermore, the relative area of the bar that is highlighted represents the time needed to complete the activity. If an activity takes longer than initially expected, the entire time line will be highlighted in red. The background of the rows representing distinct activities is colored either light green or white in a alternative fashion in order to aid in distinguishing between different activities.
