3. If necessary, select the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
configuration for the activity area.
4. In the left pane of the dialog box, under Custom, click Events.
The Performance Parameter events are used by FactoryTalk Metrics
to collect data for performance monitoring.
There are two types of the Performance Parameter events:
system-generated (page 83) and user-defined (page 85).
Both types of the events can be manual events (page 88 ).
To manage events:
• To add a new custom event for the activity area, click New.
For more information, see "Configuring User-defined
Performance Parameter Events (page 90)".
• To edit an event, select it, and then click Edit.
• To remove an event, select it, and then click Delete.
TIP
You cannot delete user-defined events while the performance
parameter configuration is enabled.
• To change the order of the events within the categories, click
Move Up or Move Down.
TIP
The position of the events in the tree will also be the position of
the events on the FactoryTalk Metrics Detail report.
