Create Fault Report
Explanation
Use this activity to create a fault report from a stop
event. A fault report is created when;
- the event is to be taken care of by maintenance
personnel.
- OR, if any maintenance action has been performed
for the event and should be stored as historical data in IFS/Maintenance.
Mandatory data, such as the site and object ID are
retrieved automatically from the selected stop event record. This serves as an
aid for simplifying the process of creating a fault report. Note:
automatically retrieved data can be changed if necessary. Apart from this, you
need to enter other mandatory data, such as a directive and maintenance
organization before the fault report can be successfully created. Once the fault
report is created it can be accessed via the Work Order link in the
Stop
Event window.
Prerequisites
Information for the selected stop event record must be
saved before you can proceed with the creation of a fault report.
System Effects
A fault report with a unique work order number is
created, and can be viewed by clicking on the
available link in the Stop Event window.
