Codes |
The Codes tab enables you to display and define the default priority ID on work orders as well as information related to fuel and fluid types, such as supported types, FuelFocus settings, and maximum quantity of fuel allowed in a calendar period.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can search on equipment ID, part ID/suffix, PM program class, SLA equipment category, assigned repair location ID, and operator ID/name, among other values. The list of searchable fields on the filter is extensive; use the scroll bar to view them all.
Note: Filtering data based on fuel/fluid type uses the information in the Supported fuel/fluid types screen group on the Codes tab.
The Primary Information screen supports department-level and location level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorizations to make changes or updates.
The field in the top section of this tab defines the data that displays.
Equipment ID
Identifier of the component currently selected in the grid or that you are defining. This field has a list box. The component year, manufacturer, and model display to the right of the ID.
When you insert a component with an asset category that supports automatic numbering and this field is blank, the system generates an equipment ID that follows the format specified in the Custom ID structure field on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Asset Categories screen. If the asset category does not support automatic numbering, the equipment ID is based on either part/location settings or system settings. If you specify an ID and the component’s asset category supports automatic numbering, the ID is not overwritten.
Whether an asset category supports automatic numbering is specified on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Asset Categories screen.
The data in the fields in the bottom section of this tab define the codes. Unless otherwise indicated, these fields are required.
Default priority ID for equipment unit on work orders
Identifier of the default priority to use on work orders opened for the equipment unit. This field has a list box that includes priority IDs assigned to the priority category INTERNAL SHOP PRIORITY on the Data -> Shop Activity -> Setup -> Priority Codes screen. This priority ID is assigned to work orders opened for the equipment unit if the Basic Info tab of the Data -> Shop Activity -> Work Order Center does not specify a priority ID. The priority description displays to the right of the ID.
Supports any fuel or fluid type
If this field has a check, the equipment unit supports any fuel type.
Oil type
Code to designate the type of oil that the unit uses. This field is optional.
Billing code
Code to designate the billing status or category of the unit. This field is optional.
The Supported fuel/fluid types screen group enables you to define new and review the existing fuel types or fluid/product types that are supported, along with their corresponding capacities. Fuel types are validated against this list for capacity checking and posting to the fuel type. The fluid and product types in the list are used in conjunction with FuelFocus.
Note: The data conversion to Release 5.7 automatically entered your supported fuel type and capacity information in the screen group.
Delete
If this field has a check, the entire row is deleted when you click Save.
Fuel/fluid type
Type of fuel or fluid stored in the tank. This field has a list box. You may only enter a particular fuel or fluid/product type once for each equipment unit. This field is optional.
Note: The choice list displays the fluid ID, product type, and description (if available).
Fuel types are defined on the Data -> Fuel/Fluid Tanks -> Setup -> Fuel Types screen. Fluid types are defined on the Data -> Fuel/Fluid Tanks -> Setup -> Fluid/Product Types screen.

Capacity
Capacity of the tank of the equipment unit or component, in gallons or liters. May not be lower than the current quantity on hand. This field is optional.
Maximum quantity within calendar period
Maximum quantity of fuel that may be issued to an equipment unit or asset during a specific time period. Maximum field length is 10 characters. Optional, but must be greater than or equal to zero if specified.
Once the maximum quantity has been issued, FuelFocus denies access.
The following fields support FuelFocus enhancements in Release 6.0. They require the FuelFocus version included in FASuite Web Modules 1.6 or later.
Maximum fuelings per day
Maximum number of fuelings allowed in 1 day. This field is optional.
Meter tries allowed
Meter 1
Number of retries allowed for meter 1. The default is 3. This field is optional.
