I need to write a high-level monitoring concept and I was hoping that I would not have to re-discover electricity by writing it all from scratch. Therefore, I was hoping there might be something already online. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything.

Hi All!
We have an automation system that manages several hundred jobs each day. We need to record the start and end time for each job. Up to now this was done with an Excel sheet and we manually input the time. That wastes a lot of time each day, so we want to automate the work.
