User interface overview
Proactive problem management workspace
The Proactive problem management workspace is a purpose-built console to support problem coordinators in end-to-end activities to identify valuable problem investigations. To access this workspace, click More > Workspaces > Proactive problem management in BMC Helix ITSM.
This workspace enables you to run analytics on incident data and leverage AI clustering technology to identify patterns of recurring incidents.
It displays recurrent incidents as clusters in the form of a heat map and a list. You can also view filters, list of jobs available, and a list of presets.

Proactive problem management settings page
As the problem coordinator, you can configure recurrent and on-demand clustering jobs for proactive problem management based on the requirements of your organization. When you log in for the first time, you must create a one-time or recurrent job in the Proactive problem management settings page to view incident clusters in the dashboard. When the job is completed successfully, you can select it from the Jobs list in the dashboard to view the clusters.
