`timestamp`	`timestamptz`	Entry timestamp	0
`asset_id`	`serial`	Asset id (see assetTable)	1
`valueName`	`text`	Name of the process value	toner-level
`value`	`double`	Value of the process value	100

Relations

DDL

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS processValueTable
(
    timestamp               TIMESTAMPTZ                         NOT NULL,
    asset_id                SERIAL                              REFERENCES assetTable (id),
    valueName               TEXT                                NOT NULL,
    value                   DOUBLE PRECISION                    NULL,
    UNIQUE(timestamp, asset_id, valueName)
);
