Attributes (Fleet Equipment)


The Attributes tab enables you to display information about subsystems and parts associated with equipment units.

The Fleet 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. The year, manufacturer, and model of the equipment unit are displayed 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, 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 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.

New equipment unit

Press the New equipment unit button to activate the New Equipment Wizard, which steps you through entering the basic data elements associated with a new equipment unit.

The fields in the bottom section of this tab provide information about subsystems and attribute data from test results.

Equipment Defined Attributes

If there is a check in the Display on equipment primary field on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Attributes screen, this screen group displays subsystems and parts information for the specific asset.

 

This screen group is editable. Records can be added, edited, or removed directly which will then create, modify, or remove associated records on the Attributes screen.

·         Delete: If this field has a check, the entire row is deleted when you click Save.

·         Subsystem: Name of the subsystem to use with the equipment ID. Subsystems are defined on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Equipment Subsystems screen.

·         Property: Attribute assigned to the subsystem. Properties are defined on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Subsystem Properties screen.

·         Active: The active checkbox indicates that the value will show on the asset record; this is not an editable field as this entry is on the asset’s primary record. Additionally, it will show as inactive if the Subsystem’s property is set as inactive on the Attributes screen.

·         Part suffix: Number associated with the part ID.

Maintenance class and Equipment type defined attributes

If there is a check in the Display on equipment primary field on the Data -> Equipment Units -> Attributes screen, the data in this group displays subsystems and parts information for the maintenance class or equipment type. All fields are display only. The sequence of the display order is specified in the Sequence field on the Equipment Attributes screen.

·         Defined by: Data that defines the subsystem.

o    EQUIPMENT TYPE: The equipment unit’s equipment type (on the Basic Info tab) determines the subsystem and part information in this row.

o    MAINTENANCE CLASS: The equipment unit’s Equipment class for: Maintenance (on the Classes tab) determines the subsystem and part information in this row.
