1. Introduction
Before use, please review the module Set Up details.
Repair & Maintenance (R&M) module provides:
•Service scheduling by time and/or utilisation
•Programmed service jobs (i.e. time only schedule) e.g. condition/safety checks
•Recording of jobs completed by external suppliers
•Maintenance Analysis using standard classifications to assist RCM programs
•Internal workshop control including:
•Personnel timesheets
•Downtime reporting
•Job cards via mobile App or printed
•Actual vs flat rates completion times
•Job cards (electronic and hard copy)
•Workshop Planning Calendar
•Automatic allocation of parts and requirements to service jobs
•Invoicing direct from the module
The Service Matrix tab in the Fleet module provides a record of services completed (or missed) and future schedule.
It cannot be changed manually but is updated automatically as jobs are activated/closed and edited and as odometers are entered or regimes updated.
Additional Options Available:
Checklists
|
An optional module for drivers/operators to complete pre-start or periodic compliance/safety/condition checklists using the AusFleet mobile app, to assist with NHVAS.
|
Job Import
|
An optional module to import external jobs details using csv files to reduce manual data entry.
|
Service Requests
|
Optional module to let drivers submit service requests from the AusFleet App to be received in R&M module for assessment and easy job creation
|
My Job Mobile App
|
Included with R&M module, it provides electronic job cards for internal jobs
|
For accurate service scheduling it is vital that jobs are closed when complete and that accurate odometers are recorded.
Closing a job triggers update of the service schedule.
2. Current and Historical Job Views
To ensure system performance for large fleets with many jobs created over many years, AusFleet provides two views of the jobs list.
View Current or Historical Jobs
Current Jobs View
The default view is Pending, Active and Carried Forward jobs from the last six months and those created for the next six months.
The default can be changed by using the status and date range menus on the tool bar.
Historical Jobs View
To access all jobs, use the "Historical Jobs" tab, which includes all jobs recorded in AusFleet.
When opening, it shows only closed and invoiced jobs but this can be changed using the Status menu.
Status and Date Range Menus
3. Change Which Columns Are Displayed
Use the "Settings" option on the menu to choose which columns to display.
Settings are per user and are retained for future sessions.
Up to around 12 columns are recommended for best display and performance.
4. Job Status
Pending
|
The job has been scheduled with a "booked in" date but has not yet been activated.
If the job date on an active job is changed to a future date the status is updated to Pending.
Jobs are scheduled when creating jobs from Services Due, Service Requests, Checklists or Add Job
|
Active
|
The job has been activated to commence using the "Pending>>Active" button in the job
|
Carried Forward
|
When a job is closed with incomplete requirements or parts not fitted, a carried forward job for outstanding work/parts will be created automatically if parameter 660 is ticked. This ensures incomplete work is not forgotten.
The c/fwd job is dated for today by default and the Job Class/Type defaults based on Parameters>>Default Settings>>550/560.
Important: Do not create a Carried Forward job as a Service. Doing so may duplicate services and affect scheduling.
|
Closed
|
The job is complete and has been closed using the "Close Job" button the job.
If the job is a service, the service forecast is updated automatically when the job is closed
|
Invoiced
|
The job has been closed and subsequently invoiced.
|
