Important: Production Progress is available as a preview to a limited set of customers. For more information about this integration and its availability, please contact your sales representative, and watch the release notes for an announcement of its general availability.
Use this content item to visually represent the progress of a production MES work order run for a selected asset.

The content item or actual progress bar can include one, two, or three bars that represent the following:
-
Blue - Actual produced count
-
Dark grey - Deficit
-
Light grey - Pending production
Hover over the actual produced count and deficit to display a tooltip.
The Actual Production Rate shows whether production is ahead of or behind the ideal rate. Green indicates ahead; red indicates behind. The calculation uses the following details:
-
Actual production rate - Displays values with two decimal places
actualProductionRate = actualProducedCount / elapsedTime
where:
elapsedTime is the time from now to the start time of the event data. The system converts the whole actual production rate to selected rate unit of measure (UOM).
actualProducedCount is the converted quantity.
-
Percentage difference
percentageDifference = (rateDifference / idealRate) * 100
where:
rateDifference is the actual production rate less the ideal rate.
