Configuring a Process Intelligence Database in the Worksoft Portal
You must register Process Intelligence and configure the database in the Worksoft Portal. Process Intelligence leverages information from the Portal.
Registering Process Intelligence
The first time an administrator signs in to Process Intelligence through the URL address, Process Intelligence registers automatically in the Worksoft Portal.
Example: https://servername.worksoft.com/portal
From the Worksoft Portal menu, select Product Configuration > Process Intelligence to verify the registration.
If you sign in the first time with the localhost, it will register the localhost, which will cause problems. If this happens, click the Deregister button, sign in through the URL address, and register Process Intelligence again.
If, for some reason, the product does not automatically register, you can trigger the registration manually. For more information, see Manually Registering Products and Services for the Worksoft Portal.
