Perform root cause analysis

To perform root cause analysis, you can view process data for a time period leading up to an event if the event has a root cause that has been defined in the event frame generation analysis. For information about defining a root cause, see Create an event frame generation analysis template. Root causes are shown as child events in the Overlay Trend and in the Gantt chart. A root cause is the first child event in a sequence of sub-events. Because a root cause is a period preceding an event, the root cause will appear to the left of the “zero time" line, which marks the start of the events.
