The FOG Pump Outs function in the Grease Extractor module enables agencies to track instances in which FOG waste is removed from a Grease Extractor or the equipment is cleaned.
Each Pump Out records a specific activity and the date the activity occurred.
Pump-Out-Related Fields
Last Cleaning Date
States the date that the extractor was most recently pumped-out.
The system automatically updates this field using the Action Date on the Grease Extractor's latest Pump Out record.
Cleaning Freq
Specifies the number of Cleaning Freq Units that should occur between pump-outs.
Cleaning Freq Units
Specifies the type of (date) units that should occur between pump-outs (e.g., days, weeks, months, years).
Next Cleaning Date
Predicts the date of the next pump-out. The system calculates this date using the values in the Last Cleaning Date, Clean Freq, and Cleaning Freq Units fields.
The Next CleaningDate is copied to the Facility record. The date also becomes the Due Date when a user creates a new Pump Out record for the Grease Extractor.
