Conversion of lifecycle information to OpenXES

abruni

Hi everyone,

I'm a research engineer at Siav, and recently we started to work on extracting event logs from our systems to do process mining.

I am trying to map them to the OpenXES standard, and found an almost 1:1 mapping between the event types in our workflow engine and the standard transition attribute values, but miss two of them:

1. data validation
2. data save

The question is: how can I map those event types to OpenXES? Should I not use the standard lifecycle? What are the drawbacks if I try to do that?

Thanks in advance,

Alessandro
