Comparing with Time Series Database

The rule compares values of time series with values in the specified time series database.

NOTE. The validation rule is available if data source is time series database.

To set up the rule:

1. Set general parameters of the rule.

2. Determine time series database which values are used for comparison. Use the Master Database drop-down list.

3. Compare attributes of time series databases, that is determine correspondence between initial time series database attributes and master database attributes. Click the Compare Attributes button. The Compare Attributes dialog box will be opened where required settings should be determined.

4. Set comparison parameters of time series values. Use the Changes Type parameter group:

1. • Determine how observation values changed:

   • • Value is changed.

     • Value is increased.

     • Value is decreased.

     • Add value.

     • Remove value.

     • Value is not changed.

   • Determine parameters of comparison.Use operator and operands for comparison. The number of available operands depends on the selected operator. Available operators:

   • • Greater.

     • Less.

     • All values in the range.

     • All values out of the range.

     • Greater or equal.

     • Less or equal.

     • Equal.

     • Not equal.

   • Set scale for operands in comparison condition:

   • • Number. Absolute scale.

     • Percent. Percent scale.
