Reading Production Record Event Data with UTC timestamp
Returning event data recorded by Litmus Production Record Database through the use of these SELECT statements can be used for example by any visualization platform which allows to integrate with MSSQL like;
- Grafana
- PowerBI
- Tableau
Further can these queries be used by any other application which allows for an ODBC connection such as:
- Excel
- C#
- .Net
- Python
- R
They can also be part of a larger stored procedure developed by users with T-SQL.
Run SELECT query with Function PROREC_ProRec_GetProRecDataUTC as FROM clause

This can be useful if for example an operation can run multiple times throughout a process. | 2 DEFAULT |
@StartTime | DATETIME | The start of the time period for which to query data. If no specific start time is required, the value can also be DEFAULT which will assume the value null. This will trigger the function to calculate a start time of -1h from the current time stamp. This means the default time period for which data are returned is always the last hour. | 2023-03-09T13:04:39.647 DEFAULT |
@EndTime | DATETIME | The end of the time period for which to query data. If no specific end time is required, the value can also be DEFAULT which will assume the value null.

@StartTimeItem | VARCHAR (50) | The Function will try to calculate the overall Duration of each recorded events and sub step included in the event. To do so, it requires to know what is the Item which does symbolize the start of the event. If users have followed the Litmus recommendations and used "START_TIME", the value can be set as DEFAULT. Otherwise, the user needs to provide the respective Item. If the Item does not exist or was not recorded, the Duration will not calculated and returned. | StartTime DEFAULT |
@EndTimeItem | VARCHAR (50) | The Function will try to calculate the overall Duration of each recorded events and sub step included in the event. To do so, it requires to know what is the Item which does symbolize the end of the event or sub step. If users have followed the Litmus recommendations and used "END_TIME", the value can be set as DEFAULT. Otherwise, the user needs to provide the respective Item. If the Item does not exist or was not recorded, the Duration will not calculated and returned. | EndTime DEFAULT |
@FilterItemName1 | VARCHAR (256) | In cases where results are to be filtered additionally to the Identifiers, for example based on the value of a specific item, the function allows to provide up to 5 additional filters for this purpose. This can be understood similar to the use of where clauses, but reduces the complexity for users. To use the filter, the user has to provide the hierarchy and item name as a comma-separated string followed by the item value separated by a double point. If no specific Filter is to be used the value can also be DEFAULT which will assume the value % which applies no filter. | 'Production,Asset,Step1,Site:LA' DEFAULT |

@FilterItemName4 | VARCHAR (256) | In cases where results are to be filtered additionally to the Identifiers, for example based on the value of a specific item, the function allows to provide up to 5 additional filters for this purpose. This can be understood similar to the use of where clauses, but reduces the complexity for users. To use the filter, the user has to provide the hierarchy and item name as a comma-separated string followed by the item value separated by a double point. If no specific Filter is to be used the value can also be DEFAULT which will assume the value % which applies no filter. | 'Production,Asset,Step1,Line:1' DEFAULT |
@FilterItemName5 | VARCHAR (256) | In cases where results are to be filtered additionally to the Identifiers, for example based on the value of a specific item, the function allows to provide up to 5 additional filters for this purpose. This can be understood similar to the use of where clauses, but reduces the complexity for users. To use the filter, the user has to provide the hierarchy and item name as a comma-separated string followed by the item value separated by a double point. If no specific Filter is to be used the value can also be DEFAULT which will assume the value % which applies no filter. | 'Production,Asset,Step1,Asset:Machine1' DEFAULT |
To query production record event data, execute a SELECT statement from the function PROREC_ProRec_GetProRecDataUTC providing all the required inputs. Below is an example using T-SQL in SQL Server Management Studio:
The function returns a table as result.
It is possible to reduce the number of columns returned by the SELECT statement. Below is an example using T-SQL in SQL Server Management Studio:
This will reduce the number of columns returned to only the three selected.
It is possible to sort data based on users requirements returned by the SELECT statement. Below is an example using T-SQL in SQL Server Management Studio:
The result will be a table, where all rows are first sorted by their RecordTime in descending order and then by their ItemName in ascending alphabetical Order.
It is possible to filter data based on the value of a different specific item, which is not to be part of the result list.
In this example, we want the values of all Part numbers when the value of the item Asset is "Machine1".
SELECT * FROM [dbo].[PROREC_ProRec_GetProRecDataUTC] ( DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,'Production' ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,'PartNo' ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,'2023-07-03T11:29:04Z' ,'2023-07-10T11:29:04Z' ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,N'Production,Asset,Asset:Machine1' ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT ,DEFAULT)
The result will be a table, with the filtered data.
