You configure Business Workflows to group existing logically-related traces according to criteria you apply, creating Monitoring and Troubleshooting MetricSets for those traces. Once you’ve created those MetricSets, you can monitor performance indicators on transactions using dashboards and alerts. You can also filter your troubleshooting view to display only the end-to-end transactions that you identify as relevant to your analysis.

In Business Workflow configuration, you apply parameters to traces that you identify and group together according to their common initiating operation or another point in their trace path, so that you can see end-to-end duration, error rate, and so on.

If you are an administrator, you can configure new Business Workflows yourself. Otherwise, you contact your system admin to configure new Business Workflows.

Check out this guide for more information and step-by-steps!
