Although you configure custom fields at the reporting point, you configure standard fields in the System Configuration folder under the Metrics configuration item. The standard fields that appear under the Metrics configuration item are common throughout the module.

List of Metrics standard fields
Metrics has the following standard fields.
|
Standard Field |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Active Within |
The ActiveWithin standard field contains a filter to query data for records that were active within a given time. This includes records with four different scenarios. The default display name in Production Analyst, which appears in the Filter Builder, is Sample Period. |
|
Created By |
The CreatedBy standard field contains the name of the creator of the record. If AVEVA Production Management created the record, the field does not contain a value. |
|
Created Date Time |
The CreatedDateTime standard field contains the creation date and time of the record. |
|
Duration |
The Duration standard field contains the duration of time that the record encompasses. |
|
End Date Time |
The EndDateTime standard field contains the end date and time of the record. |
|
Has Audit |
The HasAudit standard field indicates whether an audit history is associated with a record. |
|
Id |
The Id standard field contains a unique ID that a database generated for the record. |
|
Is Calculated |
The IsCalculated field indicates whether the contents of the field are calculated. |
|
Is Deleted |
The IsDeleted standard field indicates whether the status of the record is deleted. AVEVA™ Production Management does not physically delete records; it marks the record with a flag to indicate a deleted record. You can filter deleted records from view, but they remain available in case you want to view them again. |
|
Is Manual |
The IsManual standard field indicates whether a user or AVEVA™ Production Management created the record. |
|
Last Modified |
The LastModified standard field contains the time that the data was last modified. Last Modified is captured on non-system generated changes to custom and standard fields. This does not include Record creation and Confirmation as they have their own fields. System generated records will show the LastModified field as blank. |
|
Location Identifier |
The LocationIdentifier is a unique identifier for a reporting point from an external system. For example, a reporting point in SAP has an identifier. You enter the SAP identifier into the LocationIdentifier property so that AVEVA™ Production Management recognizes the SAP reporting point. The LocationIdentifier cannot be the same as any other LocationIdentifier or EquipmentIdentifier. |
|
Period |
The Period standard field contains the time period definition that applies to this data. |
|
Sample Date Time |
The StartDateTime field contains the start date and time of the record. |
