Automatic updating of operational tables

Abstract

One or more processors receive operational data. The operational data includes two or more fields that contain an identical type of data as two or more fields within a master table. One or more processors generate a plurality of first unique identifiers from the two or more fields within the operational data and the master table. One or more processors determine a match between a pair of the plurality of first unique identifiers. The match is between a first unique identifier included in a operational data record and a first unique identifier included in a master table record. One or more processors determine a second unique identifier from the master table record. One or more processors generate an operational table record that includes the second unique identifier and at least a portion of the operational data.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method comprising:
 receiving, by one or more processors, operational data, wherein the operational data includes
 a.) two or more performance parameters from: i) one or more industrial machines and ii) one or more industrial processes; 
 b.) two or more fields that contain an identical type of data as two or more fields within a master table, wherein the two or more fields include: i) a local identity of a machine and ii) a location of a machine; 
 c.) solar energy data, thermal energy data, power grid data, and wind farm data; and 
 d.) captured industrial plant management information for: i) production status, ii) performance monitoring, iii) quality assurance, iv) tracking and genealogy, and v) product delivery; 
   generating, by the one or more processors, a plurality of first unique identifiers from the two or more fields within the operational data and the master table by combining the two or more fields within the operational data and the master table;   determining, by the one or more processors, a match between a pair of the plurality of first unique identifiers, wherein the match is between a first unique identifier included in a operational data record and a first unique identifier included in a master table record;   determining, by the one or more processors, a second unique identifier from the master table record; and   generating, by the one or more processors, an operational table record that includes the second unique identifier and at least a portion of the operational data.
