Reporting Standards

OpenWells® Software Features

The Reporting Standard is the 24-hour period that defines a "reporting day". This standard outlines the start time and end time of the "reporting day", as well as the calendar date used to identify that day.

Two reporting standards are available.  The start time for the day is entered in the Reporting Time field. This allows for different districts within a company to use different times which will account for time zone changes.

• Reporting Option 1: The Reporting Day occurs over the 24 hour period of Calendar Day 1, hh:mm - Calendar Day 2, hh:mm and uses Day 1 as the Report Date
  
  For example, The 24 hour reporting period that starts on May 9 at 6:00 am and ends on May 10 at  5:59 am uses the Report Date May 9 in the application.

• Reporting Option 2 (Default): The Reporting Day occurs over the 24 hour period of Calendar Day 1, hh:mm - Calendar Day 2, hh:mm and uses Day 2 as the Report Date  
  
  For example,  The 24 hour reporting period that starts on May 9 at 6:00 am and ends on May 10 at  5:59 am uses the Report Date May 10 in the application.

As shown in the following two pictures, the ONLY difference between these two standards is the "Report Date" (May 9 or May 10) used to identify the 24 hour period.

Note: If the Reporting Standard has not been set, by default OpenWells software uses Reporting Option 2 with the time 06:00 hours.
