Report Data Sources Appendix A


The Event History report data source is based on the OEEQEvent

view in the RSBizWare database. This report data source contains
the historical data of individual events that have occurred at the
activity areas that are being monitored by FactoryTalk Metrics. An
Event History record is created when an event occurs, and is closed

when that event ends. FactoryTalk Metrics uses Event History
records to compute the performance information that is stored in
the FactoryTalk Metrics Workcell History report data source. Each
record may include:

• Activity area information.
• Shift information.
• The number of the part being built.
• Start and end times for the record, along with duration of the

record.

• Event description and event folder information.
• Start and/or end values collected along with the event. (This

may include the difference between start and end values. If the

event value has a lookup list, the appropriate text from the list
will be stored in the record.).

• Whether the event is user-defined or system-defined.
• A fault indicator, which indicates the first record of a new

event. This is useful if multiple records are created for a single
event.

• Severity level.
• The value for each configured user-defined summarization

criterion.

All Event History records are subject to event data summarization,
which is a process in which a single event can be split into multiple
Event History records according to various summarization criteria.

Event data summarization preserves the ability to generate event
