  • Hi Chan,
    We had to do some data mining to streamline our processes couple of months ago. We used PI BatchView Excel Add-in to fetch last 10 years of data. The nice thing about it is that you can filter all the way to the phase level if you know your filter parameters i.e BatchID, Recipe Name etc...We were able to pin point the issues in our process by modeling the data we received from PI Historian and we used PI Datalink for our process history to create charts side by side. So, PI Batchview is the Add-in you should use you have to configure it obviously to use your PI Historian database. Hope this helps!
