Sorting and drilling

Show Me
You can sort the instances by any business measure that you have marked as sortable, and you can drill down those instances to see their details.

In this exercise, you will sort instances in descending order and then drill down to see the details of an instance.

To sort instances by a sortable business measure, complete the following steps:

  1. Right-click Approved Order Value, and then select Sort on the pop-up menu.
  2. On the Set Sort Options window, click Descending, and then click OK. The displayed instances are sorted in descending order.

You can display more details of an instance by drilling down to its underlying local subprocesses or activities. On the instances table, a column represents each local subprocess in the process instance. On each row of the instances table, the column that represents a local subprocess lists the drill-down icons that indicate that there are underlying details that you can drill down to display. For rows representing instances of processes or subprocesses, a column labeled Activities is displayed. For an aggregate process, the view displays only one row and there is no drill-down icon.

To drill down an instance, on the row representing the instance, click the drill down icon on the local subprocess or Activities column.
