SCADA reporting refers to the process of collecting, analyzing, and visualizing data from SCADA and other industrial systems for operational insights, regulatory compliance, and performance tracking. Depending on the industry, reports may include metrics such as turbidity in water treatment, energy usage in utilities, or efficiency metrics in manufacturing.Dream Report for Proficy supports a wide range of SCADA reporting needs with direct connectivity to iFIX, CIMPLICITY, Proficy Historian, and over 100 other systems. It offers predefined templates for common regulatory and performance reports, as well as flexible tools for creating custom, ad hoc reports tailored to specific operations. How do I pull data from SCADA? Pulling data from SCADA systems typically involves using standard protocols such as OPC DA/UA, MQTT, or SQL queries to extract operational and historical information. Some solutions offer native connectors to streamline this process and ensure accurate, secure data access across OT and IT systems.Dream Report for Proficy offers built-in connectivity to SCADA, PLCs, and historians, with native support for Proficy iFIX, CIMPLICITY, and Proficy Historian. Users can also connect to third-party systems using standard interfaces or optional drivers, enabling efficient data extraction for reporting and analysis. What types of data can be captured and analyzed in SCADA reporting? SCADA reporting can capture and analyze a wide range of operational data, including process values, alarms, audit trails, batch records, quality parameters, and performance metrics. Data may come from live sources (e.g., PLCs, SCADA systems) or from historical databases like plant historians.These reports are commonly used to monitor system behavior, verify regulatory compliance, and support investigations or root cause analysis. Over time, analyzing trends in this data can help identify opportunities for improving efficiency, reducing downtime, and optimizing equipment or process performance. What are the key features of an effective SCADA reporting system? An effective SCADA reporting system should offer connectivity to both real-time and historical data sources, support for standard industrial protocols, and the ability to generate scheduled, event-driven, and on-demand reports. Key capabilities include ad hoc report creation, report templates, trending and data visualization tools, role-based access, and flexible delivery options such as PDF, email, or web portal access.Dream Report for Proficy includes all of these features, plus direct integration with Proficy's iFIX, CIMPLICITY, and Historian. It provides a low-code environment for creating custom and standardized reports, a secure web portal for report viewing and interaction, and over 100 built-in interfaces for seamless data access across OT and IT systems. How does SCADA reporting integrate with other enterprise systems, such as ERP or MES? SCADA reporting tools integrate with enterprise systems like ERP and MES by using open standards such as SQL, ODBC, OPC, MQTT, and REST APIs to access and exchange relevant data. This allows reports to incorporate production schedules, material usage, quality data, and performance metrics—bridging the gap between operational systems and business decision-making.Dream Report for Proficy supports integration with both IT and OT systems, including ERP, MES, and cloud platforms, through built-in drivers and open interfaces. Its flexible architecture allows users to unify data across systems, enabling centralized reporting, automated distribution, and a consistent view of operational performance across the enterprise. What are the benefits of automated SCADA reporting compared to manual reporting? Automated SCADA reporting reduces the time and labor required to collect, compile, and distribute operational data. It helps eliminate manual errors, ensures consistent report formatting, and enables faster access to key information—whether for daily reviews, shift handovers, compliance, or audits.Automated reporting tools can also schedule delivery based on time, events, or user roles, improving responsiveness and freeing up staff to focus on higher-value tasks. This makes it easier to maintain regular reporting routines, adapt to regulatory needs, and share actionable insights across the organization without delay. What role does data visualization play in SCADA reporting? Data visualization plays a critical role in SCADA reporting by helping users interpret and act on operational data more effectively. Visual elements like trends, charts, graphs, and dashboards transform raw data into clear, accessible insights—making it easier to detect anomalies, track performance, and support timely decision-making.Well-designed visualizations can also improve collaboration between departments, simplify troubleshooting, and provide a clear historical view of process behavior and performance trends. By presenting data in a format that’s easy to interpret and act on, visualization tools help teams move from reactive responses to more proactive, insight-driven operations. What are the best practices for configuring and customizing SCADA reports? Best practices for SCADA reporting start with understanding the audience for each report—what data they need, how often they need it, and in what format. Collaborate with stakeholders such as operators, engineers, and compliance teams to define requirements up front. Use standardized templates for recurring reports to ensure consistency, and allow for ad hoc report creation when flexibility is needed.Make sure to connect to both real-time and historical data sources, and validate that the data used in reports is accurate and complete. Choose delivery methods that fit operational needs, such as scheduled email reports, web access, or on-demand downloads. Lastly, configure role-based access controls to protect sensitive information and ensure that users only see data relevant to their role. What are the common metrics and KPIs tracked in SCADA reporting? Common SCADA reporting metrics vary by industry, but generally include key performance indicators related to equipment uptime, cycle times, throughput, downtime, and OEE in manufacturing environments. In the water and utilities sector, typical metrics include turbidity, pump runtime, tank levels, and well performance.In regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals or food and beverage, SCADA reports often include compliance-related data like audit trails, quality checks, and process deviations. These metrics help organizations monitor performance, ensure safety and compliance, and support continuous improvement initiatives. How can SCADA reporting support multi-site operations and centralized monitoring? SCADA reporting supports multi-site operations by enabling organizations to collect and report on data from multiple facilities using a centralized historian or distributed data sources. This allows for consistent reporting formats, improved visibility across the enterprise, and streamlined compliance and performance tracking.When centralized data access isn't possible, sites can still use shared templates to ensure report consistency and deliver results to a central location for review. Tools like Dream Report support both centralized and distributed models, with scheduling and web-based access features that make multi-site reporting easier to manage and standardize.
