Configure extreme touchpoints on nodes
Configure an extreme touchpoints (Node) definition to view a pattern where a step requires unusually large number of record updates than the normal range to progress to any next step.
Before you begin
Role required: sn_process_mining_analyst, sn_process_mining_power_user, or sn_process_mining_admin
Extreme touchpoints on nodes displays steps with an unusually large number of record updates than the median. This highlights steps that require extremely high effort.
Note: Extreme touchpoints (Node) can be configured for a project only if it has been configured for the process table on which the project is based. For information on configuring touchpoints for a table, see Configure impact metrics.

Extreme touchpoints \(Node\)
According to the example, records that meet the following conditions are available as improvement opportunities in the Summary and insights page:
- The minimum touchpoints criteria is calculated as multiplier × median touchpoints for the step. In this example, records must meet or exceed 20 times the median repetition.
- A step must contain at least 20 records.
- The top percentage of records in the extreme group that can qualify. Prevents too many records from being included and focuses on true outliers. In this case, it is 2%.
- A maximum of 5 improvement opportunities will be generated in the Summary and insights page.
- Select Save and exit.
