Asset Codes for Rotable Assets
An asset code is created to uniquely identify assets for asset management requirements where maintenance activities may or may not be required.
The asset code table is hierarchically structured such that nomination of a parent asset enables establishment of parent/child relationships between assets. Thus the organisational chart may be defined in maintenance terms consisting of major asset groupings such as production/process lines through items of plant and down to assemblies and components.
1. Navigate to your Asset to create a rotable child
2. Hover the mouse over the asset, click the right mouse button, followed by New, then Asset (circled in red)
This option will launch the Asset form safs090 as per the image on the next page
3. Click the mouse in the blank Asset Code field
4. Enter your rotable Prefix identifier (R) (circled in red)
5. Press the Tab key to advance to the Description field or click the mouse in this field
6. Enter a valid Description (Pump)
7. Click in the Serial Number field and enter a valid unique number (max 24-charcters alpha/numeric)
When a serial number is entered against the Rotable asset, the parent asset will automatically adopt the same serial number
8. Set the Asset Status (Active)
9. Set the Asset Level (Rotable)
10. Set the Tracking (Trackable Child)
11. Set the Warranty Id (Expired)
12. Set the Asset Type (if applicable)
13. Set the Default Meter (if applicable)
14. SAVE your information
- When the Rotable asset is saved, the next Rotable sequential number (circled in red below) will be allocated.
Rotable Asset Meter Readings
As the serial number rotable is a unique asset, it must contain its specific meter readings to maintain its maintenance regime for subsequent scheduling.
By adopting this approach each rotable keeps its own identity, optionally using an auto allocated “R” number (set in control form) for life. This includes all of the usual associated asset data such as reference data, apl’s, readings, remarks and standard activity links.
Rotable Asset Reference Data
As the serial number rotable is a unique asset, it must contain its specific attributes for interrogation and reporting.
By adopting this approach each rotable keeps its own identity, optionally using an auto allocated “R” number (set in control form) for life. This includes all of the usual associated asset data such as reference data, apl’s, readings, remarks and standard activity links.
Rotable Asset Standard Activities (asset standards)
As the serial number rotable is a unique asset, it must have its specific maintenance schedules setup in accordance with its correct triggering intervals and next due values.
By adopting this approach each rotable keeps its own identity, optionally using an auto allocated “R” number (set in control form) for life. This includes all of the usual associated asset data such as reference data, apl’s, readings, remarks and standard activity links.
Trigger dates are required for periodic based standard activities but are optional for interval based as the trigger dates are calculated using the assets all-time, averages and latest reading date.
Rotable Asset Link Memberships
If a rotable asset position has a maintenance regime with link memberships, a matching link membership must be setup accordingly.
For interval based meter readings link memberships, the trigger dates will be calculated using the rotable asset all-time, averages and latest reading date.
