FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix Groups and Security Setup Chapter 5

Creating Domains and Groups

The first step in configuring an FactoryTalk EnergyMetrix software project is to set up domains and groups based on your

plant’s departments, production areas, or energy types.

• Group - A named collection of devices and meters that represent a subdivision of your enterprise such as a

department or process.

• Domain - A group that is assigned roles and users. Users assigned to a domain may only access objects assigned to

that domain. This allows an administrator to restrict user access to specific parts of the system.

A typical setup is to organize meters into domain groups by energy type, substation, boiler room, or other function. A

second domain is then set up to organize meters into energy accounting groups.

This quick start uses the Efficient Industries Plant 1

example on page 108 to set up groups and domains in the FactoryTalk

EnergyMetrix software. It organizes the plant’s energy data from the Energy Data Worksheet into two functional

subdomains and groups.

• Engineering - includes all of the energy data points and is subdivided into energy types for load profiling,

consumption reporting, and power quality monitoring needs.

• Accounting - organized into production, and shipping/receiving departments for cost allocation analysis. This

group also includes a utilities su/jointfilesconvert/1608250/bgroup for nonproduction cost allocation analysis and utility shadow billing.
