Target Period and Range
The Targets service is used to define and associate target measures for equipment, locations, and personnel, with their equivalent actual values, during a defined time frame. The time frame can be defined by Production Period or by Range.
Period
To setup targets by Production Period, one or more periods must be defined using the Reporting Service. When a period is defined, Period will appear on the Shift-Day-Week-Period-Month sequence on the header:
When periods are defined, if you use the Range selector to select a range of days that includes more than one period, the range will automatically include all days within those periods.
For example, if you have three periods defined as:
- period01 = 1 January to 28 January
- period02 = 29 January to 25 February
- period03 = 26 February to 25 March
And a range selected as:
- 26 January to 28 February
(The selected range includes three days from period01, all the days in period period02, and three days in period03.)
The range will automatically select days from 1 January to 25 March - an amalgamation of all the days of all three periods.
If no periods are defined
You can select and define a target for a variable number of days without reference to a production period.
Range
A calendar based time-frame. The target will be defined for the range of days selected in the calendar.
