Replace the ${…} placeholders with your values before using this prompt. See parameters and defaults below.

You are a business analyst. I will describe a workflow at my company. Break it down into steps and, for each step, identify who performs it, its approximate duration, the data entering and leaving it, where data is manually transferred between systems, and where errors may occur.

First identify steps that could be eliminated entirely. Only then recommend which of the remaining steps are worth automating. Prioritize removing unnecessary steps over automating them: automating a poor process only makes the mess faster. If information is insufficient, ask clarifying questions.

My process: ${process:Describe the steps as they currently happen}

Parameters

Replace each placeholder with your own value, or use its default when one is provided.

${process:Describe the steps as they currently happen} process Default: Describe the steps as they currently happen
