Understanding Failure Analysis
The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Failure Analysis module is the database that enables you to associate failures, analyses, and resolutions with cases and work orders.
You can manage all of the aspects of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Failure Analysis, including this information:
- Failure Analysis Type
A category that distinguishes among failures, analyses, and resolutions.
- Failure Analysis Code
A user-defined code describing failures, analyses, and resolutions.
- Failure Analysis Tree
A hierarchy of failure analysis codes that are used as a means of selecting codes for a failure, analysis, or resolution.
- Failure
The problem according to the customer. Failures are stored separately from analyses and resolutions, and can be searched for and reused for other issues.
- Analysis
The cause of the failure. Analyses are stored separately from failures and resolutions.
- Resolution
The correction for the failure of an issue. Resolutions are stored separately from analyses and failures and can be searched for and reused for other issues.
- Unit of Failure Analysis
A piece of information that consists of failure analysis codes, descriptions, and media objects.
Three failure analysis types (failures, analyses, and resolutions) are used to distinguish units of failure analysis.
- Pareto Analysis
The method of ranking the analyses and resolutions of a problem to identify those that occur most commonly.
