Getting started

Primeur Data Watcher monitors business flows, i.e. the transfer of information between nodes or actors, and shows what has happened during the flow lifecycle.

Each monitored node shows:

• If and how information is received from a source node
• Any processing
• If and how information is sent to other destination nodes

Using Primeur Data Watcher, expected flows can be configured to:

• Detail how a flow must be processed
• Set time constraints, i.e. by when the flow is expected to occur

Once a flow is modeled, events that occurred can be verified. To give some examples:

• In case of transfer of information to a destination that has not been modeled, security and/or privacy violations can be identified
• Possible delays can be verified

Your journey through Data Watcher should start by setting up Users. You can learn how to do so on this page.

Once you have done this, you are ready to start designing your flows. Head over to the Dataflow Modeler section of these docs to read about how Dataflows can be enriched.

Now that everything is under control, you might also need to run searches through your flows. Searches can be run in the Dataflow Inquiry section of Data Watcher. Follow the link to learn all about it.

Are you an Administrator? You might need to know how to use these sections:

• the Cut-off Calendars card, where you can define the calendar that will be shown when configuring a cut-off.
• the Dataflow Attributes card, where you can configure the Attributes that the user will select when modeling a flow.
