Extend Historical pipeline inventory

The Batch Tracking application takes a snapshot of the pipeline inventory at the top of every hour. The system writes the information to the appropriate inventory tables in the Historical database. You can also take a snapshot of the pipeline inventory on-demand by running the following command:

lmsInventory.exe -b <pipeline name>

Running this command will store the information within the same Historical tables.

For situations where custom RealTime database (RTDB) fields or calculated values are required to be sent as part of pipeline inventory snapshot, AVEVA Pipeline Operations for Liquids provides you with an extension point to send additional information to the appropriate Historical table.
