Campaign progress and the Plant status block

On the Campaigns page, each plant tile shows the running campaign’s progress: one figure (“126 / 200 t · 63%”), one bar and the expected end. The same appears in the Plant status block on the home page. There is no new data entry: the figure comes from the shift diary.

Before you start

• The Campaign add-in is switched on, the plant is a campaign plant, and the campaign has started (Startup or a later phase).
• A quantity field is selected for the plant (Campaign settings page → Campaign plants → the plant’s row): an integer or decimal diary field in which the shift records the quantity produced.
• Permission: campaign:view.

Where the actual quantity comes from

• The sum of the selected field over the campaign’s closed shift logs (the value of a shift that is still open is not a fact and is not included). If the field has several rows (a table), every row is added.
• A shift log belongs to the campaign that was running at the end of the shift — the same rule as the phase indicator in the diary header. Logs before the campaign started (the first step out of Planned) and after it was closed / withdrawn are not counted.
• The figure also shows how many closed shift logs contributed.

When it says “No data” (and not 0)

Label	Reason
Not started yet	the campaign is in the Planned phase
No quantity field selected	no field is set for the plant
Field archived or not numeric	the selected field was archived meanwhile, or is no longer numeric
No quantity recorded	the field is empty in the campaign’s closed shift logs

A real 0 (someone entered 0) is shown as 0.

The expected end

The system estimates from the pace so far, in a straight line: pace = actual ÷ (end of the last contributing shift − the campaign start); expected end = the last data point + (plan − actual) ÷ pace. Interruptions and a slow startup are part of the pace.

There is no estimate (the label says why) when:

• the campaign is closed — the figure is final;
• the planned quantity is reached;
• there is no planned quantity;
• the product and the diary field have different units (e.g. “t” and “kg”) — the two figures are then shown with their units side by side, without a percentage;
• the pace is zero (nothing produced yet);
• the estimated end would be more than a year away;
• the estimated end is already in the past but the plan is not met — the latest shifts are still open or recorded no quantity, so a date computed from old data would mislead.

The Plant status block on the home page

• Lists the campaign plants of the active site: the running campaign’s phase (colour + symbol + label), number, product, progress and planned end; if no campaign is running on the plant, “Idle” and the next approved campaign. Each row opens the campaign.
• Appears only with the Campaign add-in switched on, the campaign:view permission and at least one campaign plant; otherwise the block is not shown. In the home page editor (the Home page tab of the management area) it can be moved and switched off; by default it sits below My to-dos.

What it does NOT show

No chart (burn-up), no plan-vs-actual variance table and no comparison of campaigns — this view does not show them.
