Batch status on DeltaV parameter

Dear Emerson Exchange community,

Is there any parameter/method/tag to check for the current status of a batch running on a specific unit? 

I mean if it would be possible to read the ABORTED/STOPPED/HELD/RUNNING status which is also visible in BOI from a parameter.

Thank you,

  Each individual Phase has a BSTATUS parameter that will provide this indication because each Phase could have a different batch status running on a Unit.
  
  The unit only has BATCH_ID, PROCEDURE, UNITPROCEDURE, OPERATION (Note: This will only show a single operation name that I think is the last operation that loaded and doesn't show all possible operations running) and NUMPHASES. This gives you an indication of what is loaded on a Unit but doesn't give you any statuses as the recipe info would be in the Batch Executive.
  
  When Batch Analytics came out there were three parameters added to Units (BA_HOLD, BA_PRODUCT and BA_STAGE) that needed to to be programmed to be set that you might be able to use (if not using Batch Analytics) to do your own programming to give you what you are looking for maybe. Caution in doing this that if you ever decide to use Batch Analytics you will need to remove this 'special' configuration.
