1. A computerized method for evaluating and reporting events in a building management system, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a processing circuit, an event indication for building equipment of the building management system, wherein the event indication is associated with an event;
classifying the event as at least one of a cause event and a symptom event;
suppressing the event indication in response to classifying the event as a symptom event; and
displaying the event indication in response to classifying the event as a cause event.

Abstract
Systems and methods for evaluating and reporting events in a building management system are provided. An event indication for building equipment of the building management system is received at a processing circuit. The event indication is associated with an event. The processing circuit classifies the event as at least one of a cause event and a symptom event. The processing circuit suppresses the event indication in response to classifying the event as a symptom event and displays the event indication in response to classifying the event as a cause event.
