Back Forward Likelihood

A likelihood is a value between 1 and 100, interpreted as an assumed or known probability associated with a flow action.

For example, a likelihood of 66 on a flow action labeled Accept means that users completing an assignment linked to that flow action are expected to choose the Accept flow action two times out of three.

Likelihood values are recorded as you edit a flow rule using Visio, and appear in the Diagram tab of a flow rule. They normally determine the order of presentation of connector flow action choices on the Perform form — highest likelihood appears first. (Alternatively, your application can display these choices in alphabetical order or other orders.)

When editing a flow rule using Process Modeler, click the likelihood icon to display likelihood values.

After the flow rule is saved and deployed, developers can compare the actual results with the likelihood factors. Click the  Flow Analysis   button on the Design tab of the flow rule to retrieve and summarize this data.
