Exploring the Instruments section of the Work Order Viewer
- For work orders that are scheduled using instruments, it is essential to enter the readings upon completion of the work. This practice helps guarantee accurate work order generation in the future and maintains the integrity of historical reading data.
- Instrument readings can be recorded at any point while the work order remains active. Once the work order is completed, these readings are saved to the database and preserved for historical reference. Additionally, important details, such as the scheduling information of the work order, will be updated with the newly entered readings at the time of completion.
Entering Readings
To input instrument readings, simply click in the Reading column adjacent to the relevant instrument. Be sure to enter the reading at the moment you complete the work order, as this will be the data recorded for historical reference.
Not Required: For work orders that are not scheduled using instruments, the instruments will still be automatically visible in the instruments window. You can enter readings for these instruments upon completion of the work. These readings will be recorded in the Reading History for future reference.
Required: For work orders scheduled using instruments, it is mandatory to enter the readings upon completion. These instruments will be highlighted in bold, with the notation (req) appearing next to their names to indicate that the readings are required.
