  - Analyze a Batch
    You can use the Analysis application to analyze a batch, compare the batch with the other batches, navigate to previous and next batches, and compare how the variables associated with the batch produced trend over the batch duration. The ANSI/ISA–88.01–1995 documentation defines a batch as the material that is being produced or that has been produced by a single execution of a batch process or an entity that represents the production of a material at any point in the process. Batches are produced on a single equipment or a process cell. A golden batch is a batch that is identified to be used as a reference batch for a few specific KPIs such as the best yield, lowest waste, best quality, and higher productivity.
  - Add Tags, Variables, KPIs, Process Orders, and Batches
    You can add Historian tags, Plant Applications variables, KPIs, process orders, batches, and golden batches to the Analysis page to trend required charts and display tables for analyzing information.

Color	Select a color for the trend chart.
Auto Scale	By default, Auto Scale is enabled. You can disable the default settings and provide your own range for the scale by providing Min and Max values.
Use Time	By default, Use Time is enabled, which means that the tag or variable uses the current time. You can disable the time and select the required date and time interval you want to analyze for the corresponding tag or variable.

Optional: Select the Switch Y-Axis option to switch the y-axis for the corresponding tag or variable.
Optional: You can show and hide rejection limits for the Plant Applications variables by using Show Spec Limits and Hide Spec Limits respectively. If the variable exceeds the rejection limits (L Rej, U Rej), the product is rejected.

Note: You can only display specification limits for Plant Applications variables. By default, the variable specifications limits do not appear in the chart.
Select Remove to remove a chart or variable from a trend chart.
