  1. Introduction to MainSaver and the Maintenance Process Part 1: Maintenance Process Part 2: MainSaver Intro Last Modified: February 19, 2003 Creator: Phillip D. Hicks

  2. Materials Covered • The Maintenance Process. We’ll follow the process from detecting a problem until the broken part is repaired. • Introduction to MainSaver. • How do I submit a WO (Work Order)? • Can I edit a WO after submitting it? • Helpful tips. • Contacts when you have problems.

  3. Our Maintenance Process • Something breaks. • Someone documents the problem by submitting a work order (WO). • The submitted work order has a status of AWA (AWaiting Approval) • The form submitter never changes the WO status. AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO

  4. Our Maintenance Process The Maintenance Coordinator (MC) processes the submitted form: • The MC inspects the work order (WO) for clarity. • The MC verifies the WO for correctness. • The MC checks to see the WO is complete. • When form is “blessed” by MC, then he changes the WO status: • WO status AWA -> OP - OPen not affecting data. • WO status AWA -> OPD - OPen affecting Data. • The WO status change puts the problem on various lists used by Techs, Staff, Ops, etc. AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO

  5. Our Maintenance Process • Now the problem in the field is fixed! • A new module is in place. The bad module goes to a lab. • The problem is "fixed" as far as Users and Operators are concerned. • However, we still have a broken module needing repair. So... AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO

  6. Our Maintenance Process • A Tech changes the WO status to AWR (AWaiting Repair). • The OP/OPD AWR WO status change removes problem from most lists. • Techs can do a search on status AWR to find broken modules. • !!!SOME GROUPS CHOOSE TO SKIP THIS ENTIRE STEP!!! AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO

  7. Our Maintenance Process • Tech fixes broken part. Tech changes the WO status AWR/OP/OPD CMP. • The WO form is closed by MC. He changes the WO status CMP CLO. AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO AWA OP/OPD AWR CMP CLO Next, submitting form(s)…

  15. MAINSAVER TRAINING SYSTEM We will work on a problem involving “Antenna Curley!” Also, for example, we’ll open the hierarchies“Spares”, and “To Be Repaired”. Click on the “+” symbol to open a hierarchy.

  16. The Maintenance Process The fundament “units” of the MainSaver database hierarchy are. . . • SLOT:A short description of the location of the asset. • Slots with assets attached have a mailbox like icon. • Slots with no asset have a folder icon. • ASSET:The module or object you want tracked. • NOTE:The Slot and Asset are separated by a “/”in the hierarchy. The slot resides on the left and the asset on the right hand side. • SLOT: THINGOFABOB1 • ASSET: VLA-GIZMO-NUMBER-1

  17. The Maintenance Process Assume VLA-GIZMO-NUMBER-1 breaks. We need to document what died and where it is located. Click here! • The documentation process: • Select (Click) on Asset “VLA-GIZMO-NUMBER-1” in Slot “THINGOFABOB1.”

  18. The Maintenance Process Assume VLA-GIZMO-NUMBER-1 breaks. We need to document what died and where it is located. The documentation process: • Click on Asset “VLA-GIZMO-NUMBER-1” in Slot “THINGOFABOB1.” • After the Asset has been selected click on the “Add Work Order” button at the bottom of the window to bring up the work order (WO) template.
