Product Traceability Role

Role.

None

Select this option button to specify that the label is not used for any particular product traceability purpose.

Measurement

Select this option button to define the characteristics as a "measurement," which makes it possible for its values to be aggregated and among the different batches.

Amount/Weight

When using product traceability to aggregate concentration, this property defines the value that contains the concentration value to use when aggregating the measurement value for the batch.

Batch ID

Select this check box to specify that the label is the distinct batch identifier for the batch.

Previous Batch ID

Select this option button to specify that the label identifies the batch identifier of the previous batch, which feeds into this batch.

Reference Batch ID

Select this option button to specify that the label is used to allow other data entry setups to associate its information with a specific batch, without defining a distinct batch ID.

Annotation

Select this option button to specify that the label is used for annotations that can be displayed with the batch in the Process Tree Viewer.

Start Time

When accessing data from a continuous data historian, this time defines the start of a batch.

Stop Time

When accessing data from a continuous data historian, this time defines the end of a batch.

Aggregation Type

When a measurement is aggregated with other samples within a batch, this selection defines the default method of aggregating those values.

Mean

Calculates the mean of the measurements.

Median

Calculates the median of the measurements.

Mode

Calculates the mode (most frequent observation) of the measurement.

Standard Deviation

Calculates the standard deviation of the measurement.

Sum

Calculates the sum of all the measurements within the batch.

First

Uses the first measurement that is seen in the batch.

Last

Uses the last measurement that is seen in the batch.

Minimum

Uses the smallest measurement that is seen in the batch.

Maximum

Uses the largest measurement that is seen in the batch.

All

Do not aggregate, but list all samples within the batch separately.
