Active Preventive Maintenance Work Orders

Once the system generates work orders, you will want to examine them and optionally print them. If you have established work order generation rules to automatically generate work orders, load the View Active PM Work Orders task to see the work orders that the system generated.

The filter is pre-set to show active work orders; that is, those whose status is "Assigned or Issued." This status ensures that the report includes work orders that are automatically issued when they are created (as defined by the governing SLA) as well as work orders that are not immediately issued (that is, work orders whose work requests have a status of "Assigned to Work Order").

Use the filter to display just the work orders you require; this is particularly necessary if you are printing the work orders.

Suppose you want to see the work orders that were just generated with the "Generate PM Work Orders" task; you need to set the report's filter to match the filter under which you generated work orders. For example, if you generated work orders according to a date range, location, and primary trade, you can complete the filter fields to show only work orders of the date range, location, and primary trade that you specified when generating the work orders.

Printing

You can print the work orders by choosing the Paginated Report button. Printing the work orders is handy for distributing to craftspersons for execution. At the site, craftspersons often like to have a hard copy of the instructions for the task at hand.

Note: When printing work orders, note that if all PM Work Requests listed in this view have only one step, the system uses a consolidated format that groups work requests by procedure and problem description (derived from the step instructions) and then lists in a table work requests that pertain to that problem description.
