Abstract: A system for monitoring a business process including a business process, an indicator for determining a value representing the performance of the business process, and a performance monitor adapted to evaluate the indicator to determine the performance of the business process. The indicator can be associated with workflow-enabled business process or with a control associated with the business process. The performance monitor compares the value of the indicator with a target value. The target value can be inherited from an organizational unit associated with the business process, a control, or set by a user. The performance monitor creates a report summarizing a change in the value of the indicator over a period of time. The performance monitor also initiates an audit process of the business process when the difference between the value of the indicator and the target value exceeds a tolerance range associated with the target value.
