Referencing Statistics Collector in "Wait for Event"

Hi,


I was trying to reference the Statistics Collector in "Wait for Event" value and unable to reference it. I'm able to reference a Global Table value but not a statistics Collector Table value. Wondering if the reference code is incorrect or if there is any other way to to this. Thanks

Use the same events the stats collector is using.

I'm a little confused what you're trying to do here. The input to the statistics collector is just a ticker every minute and the value references your wait for event. What are you trying to accomplish?

Hello,


I'm trying to reference a specific row and column from a Statistics Collector table in the "Wait for event" command. For instance, the Statistics collector table updates the output of a fluid container at a certain time interval (Ex. every 10 minutes). The Wait for event in process flow would have to wait for output increase to a value that is referenced in the Statistics Collector table. I used the below code in the wait for event value - it does not seem to work.

To keep it simple :

1. How do I reference the Wait for Event (In process flow) value with a statistics collector

2. Is there a way to update each row value from a statistics collector to a Global table as the row gets generated?

If you really want to detect the stats collectors events you can choose the row add or row finish events.
