It simplifies starting and completing cases and also provides access to [Process Analytics](/v1/docs/process-analytics) and [Guided Templates](/v1/docs/guided-templates). Process Launchpad includes the following features: - View and search through a list of processes organized in categories, and get an overview of each process and its purpose. - Start a process. - Track and complete cases of a process, and view detailed status updates. - Filter your cases and tasks. - Add additional case/task lists using Saved Searches. - View charts for viewing the case counter, in-progress and completed cases, providing a bird’s-eye view of key performance metrics of your processes. - Access Guided Templates to create new processes. - Display images and videos in a collapsible carousel to help users understand how to use the process. - Quickly access process documentation. > [!NOTE] > **New in Spring 2025** > > - One-click access to the Launchpad from the Modeler allowing designers to seamlessly switch between designing workflows and tracking live processes. ## View Process Launchpad Follow these steps to view the Process Launchpad: 1.

The icon will change to yellow to indicate that the process has been bookmarked. 4. Click on a card to view details of that process in the Launchpad. The Launchpad displays information about processes in two sections: - [Process Info](/v1/docs/process-launchpad#process-info) - [Cases and Tasks](/v1/docs/process-launchpad#requests-and-tasks) --- ## **Process Info** The collapsible **Process Info** section contains the following details: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/2d311614-fcb7-4424-8b4c-d4d3091eebeb/Images/Documentation/Process Info - Process Launchpad.png) > [!NOTE] > You can hide the **Process Info** section by clicking on the ![Process Info Menu](https://cdn.document360.io/2d311614-fcb7-4424-8b4c-d4d3091eebeb/Images/Documentation/Process%20Info%20Menu.png) menu located at top-left of the panel. - The process title. - The icon ![Bookmark empty](https://cdn.document360.io/2d311614-fcb7-4424-8b4c-d4d3091eebeb/Images/Documentation/Bookmark%20empty.png) to add this process to the **My Bookmarks** category on the left. The icon will change to yellow to indicate that the process has been bookmarked. - The ![Options Menu](https://cdn.document360.io/2d311614-fcb7-4424-8b4c-d4d3091eebeb/Images/Documentation/Options%20Menu.png) menu to manage the process. - [Open in Modeler](/v1/docs/process-modeler) - [Edit Launchpad](/v1/docs/edit-launchpad-configuration) - [Save as Template](/v1/docs/create-a-template-from-a-process) - [Save as PM Block](/v1/docs/create-and-edit-a-pm-block) - [Add to Project](/v1/docs/add-an-asset-to-a-project) - [Configure Process Settings](/v1/docs/configure-general-process-settings) - [View Documentation](/v1/docs/process-documentation) ([Documentation permissions](/v1/docs/permission-descriptions-for-users-and-groups#description-of-platform-permissions) are required) - [Archive](/v1/docs/archive-and-restore-a-process) - [Export](/v1/docs/export-a-bpmn-compliant-processmaker-platform-process) - [Download BPMN](/v1/docs/export-a-bpmn-compliant-processmaker-platform-process) - The **Start This Process** button to [start a case of the process](/v1/docs/start-a-process-from-the-launchpad). - A customizable image carousel, adjustable through the [Launchpad configuration](/v1/docs/edit-launchpad-configuration). - The **Details** section display the process name, description, and the date and time of the last process version. - The **Started Cases** section displays a case counter of the started cases showing in-progress and completed percentage. - The **Analytics** feature a case counter showing active and completed cases in a pie chart, and a **View More** link to see detailed [Process Analytics](/v1/docs/process-analytics). #### LaunchPad Analytics vs. Detailed Process Analytics Process analytics shown in the Launchpad might occasionally be different from those seen in the [Analytics](/v1/docs/process-analytics) tab due to differences in how data is processed. - The **Launchpad** displays tasks in real-time based on current assignments. - The **Analytics** tab processes historical data and updates less frequently. The Analytics tab also applies additional filters, considering tasks that were reassigned or completed, while the Launchpad only reflects current assignments. Since the Launchpad and Analytics tabs have different methodologies for collecting process data, they can sometimes show slightly different information in the short term. Over a longer period of time, the process analytics data in both locations will display the same information. --- ## Cases and Tasks The **My Cases** and **My Tasks** tabs display under the **Process Info** section and display cases and tasks for the process. ![My Cases & My Tasks Panel](https://cdn.document360.io/2d311614-fcb7-4424-8b4c-d4d3091eebeb/Images/Documentation/My%20Cases%20&%20My%20Tasks.png) - **My Cases:** My Cases tab shows cases started by you and their status. Click on a **Case #** to continue working on it. - **My Tasks:** My Tasks tab displays tasks assigned to you and their status.
