Techs login and can search on equipment id, specific tasks, view a list of all the open tasks or scan a barcode to begin work.
Clicking on an active task starts the labor tracking for that task. They can stop work and start again as needed. They may want to clock out for lunch, etc.
Techs can enter notes or corrective actions on the task per your processing requirements, the can also add additional notes for items they found that we not in the original task. In the aviation industry we call those Routine and Non-Routine.
Parts can already be assigned to these active tasks, but techs can still request parts if there is an outage, and even request new parts you do not have in your database. This is routed to your Purchasing department for further actions. Purchasing is done and can be specific to that particular work order. AOG can be noted too so purchasing knows the priority.
