Thank you to everyone for your passion, collaboration, and support. Here’s to building an even stronger community together in the year ahead!
Season’s greetings to you and yours! As we head into the holidays (December 24 – January 4), we want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible strength and collaboration within our community. Even during the break, you can continue to benefit from connecting with peers, searching related threads, posting your questions, and marking helpful replies as “Accepted” in the Support Community.

Best strategy for logging machine runtime for analytics
Hello, we run a manufacturing operation with 18 laser cutters. Our goal is to log their run time and idle time so that we can report on the efficiency of the production staff across certain days, shifts, weeks, etc.
I've created a device that detects when the machine starts or stops, and calls a Restlet to update an ASSET record in Netsuite. The asset record tracks the current state of the machine, as well as the date/time that the state changed. We're using this data for digital signage to show the current status of the machines.
Right now there is only the System Information log that tracks when field values change. So technically we have a history of every time its run_state changes from running to idle and back. But this log is probably not the most ideal for reporting.
