5.2.0 Release | Build 5.2.139.928
Released: November 12, 2019
What's new?
Version 5.2.0 is a functional update focused on the following new features:
NEW: Calculated Event Attributes
- Event attribute can now be calculated based on an expression you configure. For example, you may want to evaluate how long an event is taking and as a result set an attribute to "Micro stop" or "Breakdown".
NEW: Flow Server - Event Form Enhancements
- Sometimes you'd like to restrict the dropdown options available for entry based on the value of other attribute selections. For example, a "Micro stop" event may need to be categorized differently than a "Breakdown" event. This can now be achieved by configuring an Enumeration Group.
- Inserting, editing and splitting events is now available in a easy-to-use format.
- Displaying event duration on an event form is now available.
- Entering measure values for an event is now available. For example, you can now manually enter an inventory value, a production run quantity, or a lab analysis value, for a specific event.
NEW: Flow Server - Charting
- Event based table can now display the event duration, including the duration-to-date for open event periods.
- A new event "timeline" chart can be used to display your events is a visual timeline. For example, you can visually indicate where your equipment has been running or not. Add attributes to the timeline for additional visual information.
- A new mapping chart can be used to display your information geographically.
NEW: Flow Config
- Model attributes can be configured with a set of options. When linking an attribute to a measure, only these options are available for setting that model attribute. If a model attribute has not options defined, then any value can be provided for that attribute.
- The measure dependency view now displays any charts that depend on the selected measure.
