Using the Simulation Control Panel
In order to simulate a business process, you need to define simulation details like available and required resources, duration of tasks/sub-processes, instances of pools/lanes and scenarios. All these information can be defined in Simulation Control Pane which is a pane that display at the bottom of diagram, important for adjusting any settings related to simulation. The panel will be updated base on your selection in active diagram. Besides setting simulation details, start/pause of simulation can also be done in the panel.
Opening Simulation Control Panel
To open the Simulation Control Panel, right click on the business process diagram that you want to simulate and select Show Simulation Control Panel from the popup menu.
