Today’s requirement of a modern Work Order management is not limited to it’s handling of the Status and Priority, it is just the bare minimum.
With adding capabilities such as Group Numbering, Archiving, Backup Automation and Security enhancements, we implemented features which lift it’s management to the next level, the new normal, so to speak.
That means It has to include also aspects of how data is organized to be quickly found and supervised, without loosing speed and security in mind.
In order to achieve this, as already broadly outlined above, we have implemented the following features to bring Work Order management to the next level:
- Each work Order has a number and a group number. The group number serializes the Work Orders per Group whereas it’s general Number is based on its date of creation
- Work Orders are organized by Status in order to show it’s state within the Work Order process, such as if they are open or already completed.
- You can query Work Orders by Assets, Labor, Shop and the like, depending on the information you have. Any kind of filter is possible.
- The “Query” button gives you full control over the Work Orders by combining filter criteria in the most sophisticated way, to retrieve only the data you want to see.
- You can also archive Work Orders by Year, making it possible to work with current data only, whereas historic Work Orders are switched out and excluded from further modifications by the normal user. Neverthelees this process can be reversed with ease in case of need (switch back)
- The advantage of archiving, or partitioning Work Orders brings further benefits in speed of access and improvement of security,
- With available partitioning of Work Orders, the backup of data is further enhanced and can be automated without intervention by the users.
Summary
- Work Orders are serialized by Date or Group.
- The Work Order Status shows it’s stage in the Work order process until it is completed
- Work Order filters can be applied using “Auto Complete” or “Drop-down”, or by using a Query filter
- Archive Work Orders by Year.
- Archiving Work Orders further
- enhances backup of current data
- Increases Security and speed of access
- Enables automated backup procedure without user intervention.
