A computing device including a user input device. The computing device may further include memory storing a file tree that includes a plurality of files arranged in a hierarchical structure having a plurality of nodes. The computing device may further include at least one processor configured to receive, via the user input device, a scoping selection of one or more nodes of the plurality of nodes. The scoping selection may indicate a respective display status for each of the one or more nodes. The processor may generate a scoped view of the file tree in which for each selected node, whether that selected node is displayed or hidden in the scoped view is determined based at least on the respective display status indicated for that selected node by the scoping selection. The processor may output the scoped view to a display for display in a graphical user interface (GUI).

Scoped view of file tree

A computer-implemented method is provided for defining interesting portions of a workflow of a business or other type of process. Using a tracking profile editor, a portion of a given workflow is selected and associated with a named process part. Items of payload data to be used in reports are selected from a message schema associated with the given workflow. A profile is generated based on the given workflow and the selected items of payload data. A tracking profile compiler receives the created tracking profile and generates a star schema, a flattened view and OLAP cube based on the tracking profile. An interceptor extracts monitored workflow events and stores event information to a tracking stream, based on the tracking profile. A tracking service extracts information pertaining to the monitored events from the tracking stream and stores the information in the queryable database. The OLAP cube and the flattened view are updated based on the information written to the queryable database.
