Attributes Tab

The Attributes tab details about the breakage and information regarding the repair. Some fields are used to record the general location of the pipe break and its specific depth. Other fields document the physical attributes of the pipe and surrounding soil conditions, as well as the type of break and its cause.

Pipe Attribute fields

If the Update Main Break with Pipe Inventory Record Info option is turned on in the Water Options module, pipe attributes (Surface Type, Pipe Depth, Diameter, and Material) are carried over from the Pipe Inventory module when the user selects a Pipe Number in the header.

Work Order #

Enables the user to indicate the Work Order Number associated with the repair. To enter a Work Order Number, either:

  • Press F5 to enter the first Work Order Number listed in the WO grid on the WO/Req tab; or
  • Type any existing number from the Work Orders module.

While the WOs tab displays Work Orders generated directly from this Main Break record, the Work Order Number field allows users to associate any other existing work order. The Relationship button displays both types of associated work orders.

In the example below, there is a listing for "Work Orders - Tab 1," which refers to the Work Order # listed in this field. The listings for "Related WO - Standard" and "Related WO - Lite" refer to the work orders found on the WOs tab.
