Work Orders
Work Orders are the backbone of the SMMS system: they provide the vehicle for work scheduled, performed, recorded and reported.
Work orders are created through a variety of means. Preventive maintenance orders are created automatically through the scheduling function. Emergency, corrective and non-scheduled maintenance orders are entered manually as required; then printed immediately from the work order maintenance screen. You can also create a work order based on a "work request" received from another department.
Work Orders drive almost every transaction in the SMMS system, so we’ve concentrated on issues such as ease of use, rapid system navigation and quality system auditability as the major goals of our work order system.
This screen - view screenshot - illustrates the work order list from the main SMMS screen. When you select a work order from the list, and press the right mouse button, a pop-up menu displays all of the options available for work order management. The pop-up menu appearance differs based on user security authorizations; the window shown in Figure 1 reflects a fully authorized user.
