Error description

• When using Business Process Manager version 8.0.1, Optimizer
  simulation calculations for the Cost and Labor Cost KPIs are not
   working as expected.  Changing the participant from "All Users"
   to a specific user group in a Process Application makes no
  difference; the Cost and Labor Cost KPIs are still not
  calculated.
