Criteria for the Production Reports
The criteria available for each of the Production reports are the same, including whether you have selected
a single Welding Power Source or a Group of power sources. The only difference is the Weld Profiles
report on page 5.13. That report has a limited set of criteria available. Table 5.4 explains the fields in more
detail. For more in-depth information on report criteria in general, please see page 5.4.

Field Description
Start Date and
End Date Select a date range in which the weld(s) were performed for the production data you
want to review. Welds completed within this date range (that also meet all other
criteria you select) appear in the resulting report.
TIP | You can type the date into the field, or you can click the calendar icon ( )
next to the field to display an interactive calendar where you can click on the date
you want. Use the arrow icons ( and ) to navigate to previous or future months.
The double arrow icons ( and ) move forward and backward by three-month
intervals.
Shift If you want to see weld data for a specific shift during the date range you chose, select
that shift from the Shift drop-down. Production Monitoring™ narrows the data to
include only welds performed during that shift. The Production Monitoring™
administrator configured the shifts on the Administration page of the application.
Group Welds The Group Welds drop-down allows you to break down the data into useful “chunks”
for ease of review. The system totals or averages the column based on how you want
to group the data.
For example, if you select By Hour from the Group Welds drop-down and the Shift you
select is for a single eight-hour shift, the report will have eight items in it. Each of
these items is the combined average of the weld information for each hour of the shift.
Weld Profile You can generate the report for a specific Weld Profile used for the welds performed
during the date range selected. Remember, the Weld Profile must have been selected
for the weld in order for Production Monitoring™ to display any data.
