Hello,

First post and I'm new to Elastic so apologies if this is not the place to raise such a query.

Here is my issue:

I have a Logstash bringing data into ElasticSearch.  
My simplified mapping looks something like the following:  
Timestamp / Event GUID / Stage

My logs are being written as checkpoints, each time my event hits each stage from initialisation through to completion. e.g.  
GUID 1 - Stage 1 Initialise  
GUID 1 - Stage 2  
GUID 1 - Stage 3  
GUID 1 - Stage 4 - Complete  
GUID 2 - Stage 1 - Initialise  
GUID 2 - Stage 2  
GUID 2 - Stage 3  
GUID 2 - Stage 4 - Complete

I'm looking to write some dashboards over this data to monitor general health of the application. In particular I'm interested in events where I am missing stages.  
e.g. An event with a GUID which starts but does not have the full 4 records to indicate it has passed each stage.

I haven't been able to find any Kibana dashboards / visuals which are configured like this before?  
Any pointers or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,  
Craig
