you want to create the FactoryTalk Metrics XML file.

specify the RSBizWare login
(which must have FTMetrics
Authoring privileges),
password, and FactoryTalk
Transaction Manager

and custom digital events
that are part of the default
FactoryTalk Metrics LE
configuration are enabled
after they are imported into
FactoryTalk Metrics.

To disable the imported
events, select Disable
