Grouping data on OEE charts

The Group data for OEE chart by dialog lets you group data by a specific time period or traceability item you select for OEE charts. You can also select second-level grouping to display data grouped by both as bar plots on a single chart. The Group data for OEE chart by dialog used to select these options, opens from the Group data for OEE chart by settings.
