Techniques for assessing and presenting differences between the current commissioning data of a set of process control devices within a process plant and the respective baseline or defined commissioning parameters of the set of process control devices. According to embodiments, systems and methods may obtain the current commissioning data from the set of process control devices and access baseline parameters corresponding to the commissioning data. The systems and methods may compare the current commissioning data to the baseline parameters to determine a set of differences, and present, via a user interface, the set of differences for review by an administrator. In reviewing the set of differences, the administrator may facilitate different functionalities including rebaselining or reconfiguring process control devices.

Technology for assessing and presenting field device commissioning information associated with a process plant

A computer-implemented method for configuring a plurality of field devices is provided. The method includes defining a configuration template and mapping the configuration template to a plurality of field devices. The defined configuration template is automatically applied to the plurality of field devices. A method of verifying field device configuration information is also provided.

Bulk field device operations

A system and a methodology creates a mapping of a set of import parameters specifying a device in a first set of import data to a set of output parameters specifying the device in a first database. Such a mapping includes receiving the set of import parameters from an import file containing the first set of import data in a plurality of import records, each import record containing a plurality of import values, each import value corresponding to an import parameter from the set of import parameters; receiving the set of output parameters from the first database; and creating the mapping of the set of import parameters to the set of output parameters. The system and methodology described in here allows users to import data about various types of devices into a device database on a systematic and efficient method. Such a system and methodology also allows a user to maintain a complete database including all devices used within a process plant.
