WO/PM/Req Tab

The Work Orders and Preventative Maintenance and Requests tab allows user to view and edit work orders and PM templates where the vehicle is listed as an asset. The tab provides several special function fields and 3 grids. Each grid shows the related records from the corresponding module.

Note: If an agency does not own the Work program, this tab will be unavailable.

Special Function Field

Default WO Cat	This field allows users to setup a default category for a fleet asset. Multiple categories are available in the pick list. To view the categories, press F9 or click on the Default WO Cat button. The category in this field will be automatically defaulted to the work order or PM that is created from this module.
No WO/PM/Req	Check this box to stop this asset from being used in Work Orders, PM's and Requests.

To create a work order, click on the module toolbar and the Work Order module will open
To create a new PM template, click on the module toolbar and the PM/Work Template module will open.
To view or edit a work order or PM, right click on the listing and select View Record.

Once the new Work Order and/or PM Template is created, the inventory item will be automatically entered in the Asset field of the WO tab as well as in the Assets grid. The category associated with that item of inventory will appear in the module header.

Note for PM/Templates: After you select a main task for the template, you can use the F5 key to enter the unique combination of task and asset into the PM/Template header field. The vehicle name as it appears in the Fleet Inventory module will be listed. If a template already exists for that task/vehicle combination, you will be prompted to change the name.

Note: If the operating status is greater than 950 (considered out-of-service), the system will not generate a work order based on this PM until the inventory item is considered to be back in service. For further information on the PM template, please reference the help guide.

The PM grid also contains a function that allows you to quickly generate a work order from a PM. To access this function, right-click on a PM listing and select "Generate WO from PM".

This function cannot be used if:

The asset's status code is greater than 949,
The PMs status code equals "2 - WO Generated",
The Grouped PMs status code equals "2 - WO Generated", or
The PM flag is False (in the Linked PM record).
Note: A tutorial movie describing this function is available. Click on the link for more information.

In addition, many WO/PMs tabs throughout the system contain two important fields:

Default WO Category field - This field allows you to set up a default category for your asset. Multiple categories are available in the pick list. To view the categories, press F9 or click on the Default WO Cat button. When a work order is created, the default category and related asset information will be imported into the new work order record.
No WO/PM/Req - When this checkbox is marked, users will be prevented from creating Requests, Work Orders, or PMs for the current asset inventory record. This will disable the Create Request, Create WO, and Create PM buttons. Additionally, the asset will no longer be displayed in the selection dialogs for the WO/PM/Request modules. This may be used for assets that are in the system but have been abandoned or are no longer used.
