Analyzing data

Start the process of analyzing data to identify quality issues.

On the Analyze Data tab, you must provide values for the PARAMETRIC_RUNDATE, PARAMETRIC_SUBUSECASE, INSPECTION_RUNDATE and INSPECTION_SUBUSECASE parameters.

Table 1. Quality parameter descriptions and values
Parameter name Description and values
PARAMETRIC_RUNDATE

The date up to which you want to process Parametric Quality information. The date format is yyyy-MM-dd.

Tip: If you want to process information up to the most recent data that is available, leave the parameter blank.
PARAMETRIC_SUBUSECASE
The Parametric Quality algorithm handles various master data sets, from raw materials to manufacturing machinery to end products, and environment or location-specific data. The following categories of analysis can be used on each of the master entities. Categories of analysis can be a combination of different masters or a lone entity.
PRVariableEvent
Process Resource Validation is the default Parametric use case, in which the process, and the resource that takes part in process, are monitored based on a defined set of measurement types (variables). These variables are compared against target values, acceptable limits, unacceptable limits, standard deviation, false alarm rates, and unacceptable factors.
RVariableEvent
In the Resource Validation use case, a resource is monitored based on the standard operation limits across several measurement types (variables). This kind of health check is essential in identifying issues in the resource and to remediate to improve performance and throughput.
PBVariableEvent
In the Product Validation use case, given a set of variables whose targets are set for the product to meet, any deviation or drift beyond the allowed deviation highlights flaws in the product.
MVariableEvent
In the Material Validation use case, raw materials that are purchased from a vendor are monitored for a defined set of guidelines and are validated to check the quality of the procured material.
LVariableEvent
In the Location Conduceability use case, a location can be analyzed for its suitability to a particular operation. Variables like pressure, temperature, humidity, and their time slide values are considered.
INSPECTION_RUNDATE

The date up to which you want to process Inspection Quality information. The date format is yyyy-MM-dd.

Tip: If you want to process information up to the most recent data that is available, leave the parameter blank.
INSPECTION_SUBUSECASE
The Inspection Quality algorithm can be carried out on a product or a raw material.
ProductInspectionEvent
In the Product Inspection use case, the inspection or attribute analysis is carried out on a specific product, given input data about the ratio of failed to tested products.
MaterialInspectionEvent
The Material Inspection use case focuses on the raw material that is procured from a vendor, given input data about the ratio of failed to tested raw materials.

  2. To run the analysis immediately, click Run now.
It takes several minutes to several hours to analyze the data. During analysis, a progress window is displayed and the project is locked. Click Return to All Projects to work with your other projects. It is possible to analyze multiple projects simultaneously.
