Message ID: MC968699
We are excited to introduce the Process Simulations feature for the Power Automate Process Mining desktop application. This new feature enables users to create simulation scenarios to effectively validate business hypotheses. It will be generally available from January 31, 2025.
How does this affect me?
Simulation results offer a summary of global KPIs per process and detailed insights to analyze the impact of each activity.
This feature will allow users to model the following proposals:
- Resource management: Add/remove users and change the performance and cost per resource.
- Manage durations and wait times for activities in business processes.
- Manage process flow: Define follow-up activities and their distribution.
- Manage working hours and timetables.
What do I need to do to prepare?
This message is for awareness and no action is required.

The introduction of the Process Simulations feature for the Power Automate Process Mining desktop application is an exciting development that stands to benefit both administrators and users in significant ways.
For admins, this update means enhanced control over process management. With the ability to simulate different scenarios, they can better allocate resources, adjust activity durations, and analyze the impact of various changes before implementing them in real-time. It’s like having a crystal ball—only instead of predicting the future, admins can confidently model it!
Users, on the other hand, will find this feature quite empowering. The ability to create simulation scenarios allows them to validate their business hypotheses effectively. Imagine being able to tweak resource allocation or adjust wait times and then see the potential impact on overall KPIs. It’s akin to playing a video game where you can test strategies without any real-world consequences. Plus, the insights gained from these simulations will help users make informed decisions that could lead to more efficient workflows.
As for the impact of these changes, the potential is substantial. By facilitating a deeper understanding of process dynamics, both admins and users can work together to optimize operations, leading to increased productivity and perhaps even a few less late-night work sessions!
In the spirit of collaboration, I encourage everyone to share their thoughts on this update. How do you see the Process Simulations feature impacting your workflow? Let’s get the discussion going!
