Class PM |
The Class PM tab enables you to specify overrides for specific equipment units. These overrides can cause the unit to be considered due for preventive maintenance (PM), regardless of the next PM due date.
The overrides apply to equipment units that have a PM program type of CLASS on the Basic Info tab. If the equipment unit has been assigned to an equipment class for PM program on the Classes tab for which the Class PM Service Pattern tab on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Equipment Class -> Primary Information screen specifies data, that data displays on this tab. That information may be overridden by meter and fuel quantity overrides specified on the Meter Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Equipment Class -> Primary Information screen.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can search on equipment ID, serial number, asset category ID, segment ID, to/from marker ID, assigned repair location ID, and department ID, among other values. The list of searchable fields on the filter is extensive; use the scroll bar to view them all. If you specify a range, any record that crosses any part of that range will be displayed.
Note: Filtering data based on fuel/fluid type uses the information in the Supported fuel/fluid types screen group on the Codes tab.
The Stationary Equipment screen supports location level and department-level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorizations to make changes or updates.
Detail View Header
The field in the top section of this tab defines the data that displays.
Equipment ID
Identifier of the equipment unit currently selected in the grid or that you are defining. This field has a list box. If the ID is already defined, the equipment unit year, manufacturer, and model display to the right of the ID.
When you insert an equipment unit with an asset category that supports automatic numbering and this field is blank, an equipment ID is generated that follows the format specified in the Custom ID structure field on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Asset Categories screen. If you specify an ID and the equipment’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.
Detail View
The data in the fields at the bottom section of this tab define information about equipment units in regard to their class PM program. Unless otherwise indicated, these fields are required.
Next PM service number
Slot number of the next PM service to be performed on the unit.
Note: If there is a check in the Automatically start class PM schedule when equipment unit becomes active field on the General Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Options screen and the PM program type is CLASS, this field is set from 0 to 1, but only if the class PM schedule was not started manually.
Tip: If a work order for the next PM service due has a status of either OPEN or PENDING, the work order ID and status are concatenated and the information displays in the unlabeled field to the right.
PM service
Preventive maintenance (PM) service level (designated by the letters A to Z) or inspection type that corresponds to the value in the Next PM service number field. The service description displays to the right of the field. Display only.
Next PM due date
Date on which the next PM service is due on the equipment unit. Calculated as (last PM start of meter reading 1 and 2) - (previous total of meter reading 1 and 2) + (meter override). The due date for the next PM/inspection service on an equipment unit is computed once the work order is FINISHED.
Note: If there is a check in the Automatically start class PM schedule when equipment unit becomes active field on the General Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Options screen and the PM program type is CLASS, this field defaults to the in-service date plus the class interval, but only if the class PM schedule was not started manually.
Last performed
Last date on which the PM service was performed. This field updates automatically when you use the Update PM schedule fields on the Basic Info and Tasks tab of the Data -> Shop Activity -> Work Order Center screen to update schedules for task IDs that are inspection services. This field is display only.
Service
Identifier or description of the PM service last performed. This field is display only.
Work order ID
Identifier of the work order for which the PM schedule
was last updated. The ID consists of the identifier of the work order’s
assigned shop, the year the work order was opened, and the work order
number. This field has a zoom
button 
to the Data
-> Shop Activity -> Work Order
Center screen.
This field is display only.
Date source
Source of the last update of the PM schedule. The values are UNIT IN, FIRST LABOR, WORK FINISHED, IN SERVICE, or SCHEDULED. This field is display only.
PM overrides
If there are values in these fields when a determination is made whether an equipment unit is due for PM, overrides set for the equipment unit's class for PM program are ignored and the values specified in this field are used. (Overrides are set using the PM fuel quantity override and PM meter override fields on the Meter Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Equipment Class -> Primary Information screen.)
Meter 1 and 2
Number of meter units on the appropriate meter since the last PM service at which the equipment unit becomes due for PM, if that quantity of meter units elapses before the next PM due date or the equipment unit consumes fuel in excess of the fuel quantity. This value is used for the unit's matching meter-type. This field is optional.
Fuel qty
Quantity of fuel used since the last PM service at which the equipment unit becomes due for PM. If the quantity is used before the next PM due date or meter readings that would make the unit due, this value is used. This field is optional.
Life meter last performed
Meter 1 and 2
Life meter 1 and 2 readings on the unit the last time this PM service was performed.
Life meter last PM start
Meter 1 and 2
Life meter reading on the unit's appropriate meter at the time of its last PM. This field is useful when you first implement the system and when you change the PM schedule data for a unit.
Note: If a meter rolled over or was replaced after the work order was opened, the life meter from the work order is used to update the PM schedule.
Next PM due at meter reading
Meter 1 and 2
Reading on the appropriate meter at which time the next PM service is due on the equipment unit.
Note: If there is a check in the Automatically start class PM schedule when equipment unit becomes active field on the General Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Options screen and the PM program type is CLASS, this field defaults to the meter reading at the time of insert, but only if the class PM schedule was not started manually.
Quantity fuel used since last PM
Amount of fuel this unit used since its last PM. This field is useful when you first implement the system and when you change the PM schedule data for a unit. This field is optional.
