Data elements is a configuration object that along with data collection element allows you to define the data that you want to consider while calculating the granular OEE KPIs like scheduled downtime, quality loss, performance loss, and so on. (See Transfer of Data Element Types)

Transaction data reported from the shop floor is collected through data collection elements. Data elements are assigned to data collection elements. Data elements enable you to determine whether the data collection element is for reporting data for production or loss. You can further categorize loss type of data into subtypes such as speed loss, quality loss, scheduled down, or unscheduled down. This categorization of data collection elements facilitates aggregation of specific types of data elements for calculation of granular KPIs.

For example, scheduled downtime KPI is calculated by aggregating all those transaction data that have data element type as loss and data element subtype as scheduled downtime.
