How to use the trends dashboard
This lesson shows you how to use Factbird’s Trends dashboard to analyze performance over extended periods and uncover patterns that drive improvement.
You’ll learn how to select the metric you want to track, such as OEE1, OEE2, or OEE3, and define your date range to view long-term performance trends. Filtering out zero values gives you a clearer view of actual production data, helping you avoid distortions from planned non-production days.
Trend lines and averages make it easy to spot high-performing days and weaker periods. By identifying what happened on the best days, such as which shifts or products were running, you can work to replicate those conditions. Similarly, understanding the causes behind low-performance days helps you target improvement efforts.
What you’ll learn:
- Selecting performance metrics and timeframes in the Trends dashboard.
- Filtering out zero values for cleaner trend analysis.
- Using trend lines and averages to track long-term changes.
- Identifying high- and low-performance days for deeper investigation.
- Applying insights to replicate success and fix recurring issues.
By the end of this lesson, you’ll know how to use Factbird’s Trends dashboard to uncover meaningful patterns and make informed, data-driven improvements.
