Record statistics per Shift

Hi all,

In the model StatisticsPerShift.fsm I used Statistics Collectors to get two Performance Measures: Metros_Pallet and Pallet_Hora. What I am trying to do is that these tables record those Performance Measure by Shift, this means, that one row of one transporter in the Statistic Collector would stop recording after 8 hours and then, it creates another row recording the statistics for the next shift.

This concept is similar to the one in this article with the utilization, which I built in the demo model, but I haven't got the desire output with the other statistics.

What is the recommended approach to get this?

Thanks!

To collect the data, your current statistics collector likely uses the transporter as the row value (updating the respective row when an event happens).

You could use a timer event at shift end (either set up directly in the statistics collector or a timer in a process flow) to "finish" the current rows, which would cause a new row to be created the next time the row value appears.

To finish all rows with a single timer event you can use an array that contains all current row values as the row value for the event.

The screenshots below show a simple example of a statistics collector that counts processed items. It starts a new row every 8 hours.
