Description
OEE Downtime
Indeterminate shortstop detected for Equipment (<Equipment/Path>). Please adjust analysis end date forward by <Time Amount>.
This occurs when the analysis end date slices a downtime event so that it is ambiguous if it is a short stop or not.
Although the full downtime event in reality may be very long, slicing it early with an analysis end-date could cause the system to see it as a short stop.
This is because analysis can only take temporal "snapshots" of the data, and does not see data that occurs after the end-date timestamp.

If this occurs, and Analysis is not able to tell if the downtime event is a True Shortstop or not, the system will send this message back to the user, suggesting an amount of time to adjust the end-date timestamp in order to know for sure if the downtime event is a short stop or not.

The amount of time is calculated by taking the difference between the downtime event's shortstop threshold and how long analysis sees that its been running.
