Monitor OEE and Machine Downtime
OEE — Overall Equipment Effectiveness — is Availability × Performance × Quality, calculated per workstation.
Read the dashboard
- Go to Manufacturing → OEE Dashboard, under Reports.
- Set a date range — it defaults to the last 30 days — and optionally filter to one workstation, then Apply.
- Four cards show average Availability, Performance, Quality, and overall OEE for the range. A trend chart plots all four over time, and the table below lists every daily snapshot per workstation.
- Export CSV downloads the snapshot rows for the selected range.
Snapshots calculate automatically every night for the previous day. If you need a specific historical day recalculated — for example after correcting a downtime record — use Recalculate a Day at the bottom of the page.
Where the numbers come from
| Factor | Data source |
|---|---|
| Availability | Machine downtime logged under Workstations → Machines, against planned operating hours |
| Performance | Operation Time Log actual run time vs. standard cycle time |
| Quality | Production entry good quantity vs. total quantity |
:::info Performance starts as an estimate Until you start using the Operation Time Log for a workstation, Performance falls back to a rough estimate from the work order's actual start and end dates. It sharpens automatically once operators start clocking in and out — no need to recalculate manually. :::
Log downtime and maintenance
- Go to Manufacturing → Workstations → Machines.
- On a machine row, open Downtime to log a start time, reason (breakdown, setup, material shortage), and an optional cost or production-loss figure. Click End when it's back up — the duration feeds the next OEE Availability calculation.
- Open Maintenance to schedule preventive or corrective work, and Complete it when finished — this updates the machine's last and next maintenance dates.
