RO-D Enter Machines
Purpose of Program
Use this program to set up machines in a database file. You may establish the number of machine hours that should occur between scheduled maintenance. The system can automatically log machine hours through the Work Orders module, and free form notes may be maintained to record service, etc.
General Program Operation
Enter a machine number. This is a four character, alphanumeric field. If you are editing an existing machine, you may type in the machine number or you may select a machine by clicking on the Lookup icon (or press F2). The machine description will automatically be displayed.
If entering a new machine, give it a 30 character description. Next, specify the work center this machine is located in. The work center and the machine can be the same thing in some cases.
If you plan to use this file for scheduled maintenance, enter the number of hours planned between servicing. If you know it, enter the date for the last time this machine was serviced. The number of hours used to date should be left blank, unless you know the figure. This field will automatically be updated by the system as machine hours are reported through WO-F Enter Labor or WO-M Batch Labor Entry or Data Collection. Finally, enter any notes for any purpose you may have.
To save the record from any point on the screen, click on the Save button.
