Work Order Software
Training with Work Order Software
Work order software represents the basic functionality of any CMMS system. Typically Work orders represent one primary job but may be combined to create a project too. Required fields are Equipment and Task.
Prerequisite(s):
- Basic configuration and navigation.
- Equipment configuration.
- Task configuration.
- Personnel configuration.
This module covers several of the basics of work order and repair ticket creation, editing, printing, exporting and duplication. There is a great deal on information that is not covered, including many other shortcuts, tricks and methods for creating work orders. This CMMS software has seven (7) different way to create a work order.
Automatic Work Order Creation
Create work orders automatically or semi-automatically to respond to equipment breakdowns or to an equipment metric that is out of range. Additionally, create a work order from a similar work order by using a one-click duplication method. Best of all work order are created automatically based upon a schedule (example: Every Monday at 8:00AM) that you define. This schedule continues to generate work orders automatically, as expected. Furthermore, these work order are automatically emailed to the recipient of the job, or simply added to the work list.
In like fashion, work is triggered by meters (example: every 100 cycles or 100 hours) or other triggering events. Meters are defined by the maintenance manager and are any unit or value required. Accordingly, this adds great flexibility as well as automation to the work flow process. Use work order software for managing preventative maintenance, projects, repairs or any other type of equipment maintenance tasks.
