CAM Features

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Capital Asset Management consists of these modules, depending on the licensed products you have purchased:

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Fixed Assets.
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Plant and Equipment Management.

This includes sub-modules, such as Equipment Information, Equipment Time Billing, Plant and Equipment Maintenance, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Foundation - Work Order, Failure Analysis, Case Management, Maintenance Planning, and Plant and Equipment Management Setup.
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Condition-Based Maintenance.
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Equipment Cost Analysis.

The maintenance features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne CAM are designed to meet equipment maintenance needs in a variety of ways. For example, you can use the system to:

Enter and search for equipment information.
Track equipment movement and status, and assign equipment to multiple locations.
Track the maintenance history of each piece of equipment and target potential problem machines to minimize equipment downtime.
Coordinate maintenance activities based on preventive and corrective maintenance schedules.
Coordinate maintenance activities with materials and labor resources.
Assign resources to work orders.
Maintain detailed cost accounting records for equipment.
Produce reports on a wide range of equipment-related topics.
Record and track cases.
Maintain a failure analysis database. Associate failures (issues), analyses, and resolutions with cases and work orders.

Equipment Information and Search

This table describes some of the types of information you can use to locate, organize, and track the availability and repair status of equipment:

Information Type	Description
Parent and component relationships	A parent piece of equipment consists of other parts or components. It can also be a component of another piece of equipment. A parent can also be a virtual or logical piece of equipment with component relationships to other logical equipment. For example, a manufacturing line could be a parent, and the associated manufacturing machinery would be components of the manufacturing line. Use parent and component relationships to group components in the system. You can track the history of a piece of equipment's immediate parent or any of its components. The system accommodates up to 25 levels of components. This record is useful if you use complex or interchangeable equipment assemblies.
Equipment numbers	You can identify equipment by: Equipment number Unit number Serial number
Location	You can search for and track equipment, based on its historical, current, or planned location. This tracking ability is helpful if you need to review equipment that is used at a particular job site or reroute equipment between job sites.
Category codes	You can define up to 33 category codes to classify equipment for reporting and data selection purposes. For example, you can perform online searches for equipment based on category codes that represent major accounting class, major equipment class, manufacturer, model year, and so on.
Other user-defined codes (UDCs)	You can assign three additional UDCs: Finance methods Equipment status codes Equipment message types For example, you can set up equipment status codes to apply to each piece of equipment, such as: Down Standby Working Available
Licenses and certifications	You can record and track license and permit information for each piece of equipment. This record is helpful if you dispatch equipment to job sites that are located in different licensing authorities.
Online message logs	You can use online message logs to enter messages about a piece of equipment. Standard message types include: Planned maintenance Actual maintenance Problem reports You can also enter additional remarks about any piece of equipment.

Equipment Location Tracking

You can locate and report on the availability and working status of equipment. You can also:

Revise location tracking information.
Transfer one or more pieces of equipment.
Consolidate equipment from multiple locations.

Reporting

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne CAM provides you with a wide variety of reports that offer you a comprehensive view of the equipment needs and processes. You can configure any report to fit the company's reporting needs and simplify the fulfillment of various governmental reporting requirements. These examples are a partial listing of the predefined reports available:

Work Order Cost Summary
Work Order Cost Detail
Maintenance Schedule
Equipment Parts List
Specification Data
Location Tracking
Equipment Variance

In addition to standard reports, you can create custom reports using virtually any data within the system.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Case Management

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Case Management enables an organization to create a central point-of-contact for all customer service processes. You can capture and manage cases, as well as create work orders to fulfill cases. On the case entry or work order entry screens, you can use menu exits to quickly retrieve information about the customer, product, or issue.

See Setting Up Case Management Fundamentals.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Condition-Based Maintenance

In contrast with frequency-based preventive maintenance, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) looks at upper and lower limits, tolerances, and other conditions that might cause an equipment or system warning or alarm. Once the alarm has been initiated, the alert can be passed into the CBM module and initiates an email notification, investigation email, updates the preventive maintenance schedule, or creates a work order to resolve the reason for the alert.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Equipment Cost Analysis

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Equipment Cost Analysis (ECA) module provides you with the ability to perform detailed cost analysis on the equipment that you own and maintain. ECA benefits companies that use a variety of equipment and that need to identify current problem areas or track increasing operational costs. For example, you could compare the maintenance costs for a group of related equipment over a number of financial years, or compare the maintenance costs for a type of equipment operating under a number of different operating environments or across different sites.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Resource Assignments

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Resource Assignment module supports two primary processes:

Creating a crew schedule.
Assigning resources to the schedule.

When creating the crew schedule, the total capacity of the crew by lead craft is used during the crew assignment process. Once the schedule is in place you can then assign individual resources to the crew schedule while checking the current availability and assignment of the resources. The assignment process can also be carried out directly to the work order details when a crew schedule a crew schedule is not being created.
