Overview

Overview

ID565 is for clients whose business practice is to perform scheduled PMs (Preventative Maintenance), and you have taken the time to set up PM intervals in e-automate and want to ensure those PM service calls are completed. This alert will email when an equipment's PM date is coming due and/or past due, reminding you that a service call needs to be assigned to a technician. 

Click this link for eAutomate configuration instructions on setting up PM schedules in equipment & model records. The link also has instructions on creating the eAgent task to auto-create PM calls in the dispatch console, and how to bulk update equipment records with a PM schedule

This alert will only work if your company is diligent about maintaining the PM Cycle information on your equipment/models and doing PM calls in e-automate so that the next PM due date is updated properly. Equipment with no PM date will be ignored.

 

Run Schedule:  Weekdays at 4 pm

Alert Functionality

Alert Functionality

This alert will trigger on equipment that is active and falls under one of the following scenarios; the updated message column of the email will correspond to these scenarios.

1. PM Due by Date - The option for preventative maintenance based on due date (1) is checked on the equipment record, and the Date due (2) is within the next number of days specified in Variable W. This is the only scenario that checks the Based on due dates option on the equipment record.

All the following scenarios are based on the number of clicks between PM calls as set for each model/meter type.

**Note that the option for Based on meters is determined by the meter attached to the equipment record. If the meter type does not have the option checked, you will not be able to check it on the equipment record.**

2. PM Due Default due at - The option for preventative maintenance based on meters is checked on the equipment record, and the most recent default meter reading exceeds the PM due meter.
