I would like to suggest a new template/feature to be created. I think it's a great idea to have an automated flowchart being generated based on Breakdown of data values through category ect.

For example, the top value will be total sales, then broken down into total sales by local/global, then broken down into total sales by region - total sales by distribution channel -Ext. Imagine seeing all these breakdown of values in a flowchart !

I personally think flowchart/mindmap are able to paint a picture very easily and breakdown of values can be very easily interpreted.

On the Other hand, qualitative flowcharts are able to explain process flows very well since many presentations don't consist of 100% figures only. Few examples are data cleaning process/problem to action/brainstorming options, project evaluations/complete paths in solving an issue ect.

RE: Qualitative/Quantitative flowchart/mindmap

I like this idea to draw a process and then put data on the flow.
Microsoft has this idea as well https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/itshowcase/how-microsoft-uses-process-mining-to-accelerate-digital-transformation
But has not fully linked this to powerbi because it made a visio diagram for it.
If you like to fully automate process mining and bring it to Power-BI you need to be able to generate process models and flowcharts with relations and dependencies.
Power-BI should be the tool to bring process mining to the public.
Because data presentation is Power-BI
