All records in the FactoryTalk Metrics database contain a start time
and an end time. The Date/Time selections you make in Report
Expert use the start time from those database records.
Some data from the database (for example, the OEEWorkcell table
data that is used in the Performance, Production, Quality,
Throughput, and Uptime reports) is returned in 10 minute
increments. In this case, the start and end times (without dates to
simplify this example) of the resulting database records would be:
Database record: Start time: End time:
1 8:00 AM 8:10 AM
2 8:10 AM 8:20 AM
3 8:20 AM 8:30 AM
4 8:30 AM 8:40 AM
5 8:40 AM 8:50 AM
6 8:50 AM 9:00 AM
7 9:00 AM 9:10 AM
When you apply the Date/Time filter in Report Expert, only
complete database records are returned. Therefore, the data returned
may not match the parameter set’s Date/Time.
