Basic Info |
The Basic Info tab enables you to define condition ratings, with ranking, for equipment units and service requests. You may assign these ratings to equipment units on the Status tab of any equipment screen (e.g., fleet, rail, stationary, linear, component). You also may assign these ratings on a service request to track trends in condition changes. A condition rating entered on a service request will update the condition rating on the equipment unit.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on condition rating and ranking.
