• Key Concepts: 
  A blocker is a type of alert in SAP Process Insights (BPI-PI) that indicates a process is not running as expected. Blockers are triggered when a process does not meet the criteria set by the user. Blockers can be used to identify and address issues in a process before they become more serious. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP Process Insights, users can set up blockers to monitor processes and alert them when something is not running as expected. Blockers can be set up for specific processes or for all processes in an organization. When a blocker is triggered, users can investigate the issue and take corrective action. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up blockers, it is important to set realistic criteria that will accurately reflect the performance of the process. Setting too strict criteria may result in false positives, while setting too loose criteria may result in false negatives. It is also important to review blockers regularly to ensure they are still relevant and accurate.
