When an event occurs that causes you to produce less output than what you had planned, you can manually add the event to a Production Event and record all the details related to the event. You can link the event to:
- An Asset
- A Production Unit. The losses for the Production Unit will be the combined losses of each Equipment and Functional Location that is part of the Production Unit.
This allows you to view the actual cost of unreliability.
Alternatively, you can automate the creation of a Production Event via the Create Production Event node in Policy Designer. Using this node, you can design a policy to create new Production Events whenever certain thresholds or limits are exceeded or met. This enables the creation of Production Events through integration with other systems, including OPC, AMS, and GE.
