I would like to get the idle time of a zone resource, or about something inside it. How can i do that?

You can click on a zone and in the Quick Properties click on the chart icon to get statistics of a zone. There are also templates available for charting of zone statistics. However there isn't idle time of a zone, Hope this helps.zone-stats.jpg

Exactly! There isn't idle time of a zone, and there is what i need. But, thank you anyway.

None of the Shared assets have a stat that is similar to the Objects' notion of state; idle vs processing vs whatever. But you can create something similar if you are Ok with the idea of creating an object just for the purpose of gathering state-style data.

In the Attached model, I created an Object called the BasicFR and set it's state to Idle using its OnReset Trigger. Next I use Process Flow activities to set its state to "Busy" whenever something enters the Zone. After something leaves the Zone, I set the state to Idle only if the Zone is empty. Once you have done that, you can use the Dashboard state templates to display the Idle time for the Object.
