Understanding Managing Equipment

You can inquire on many different programs to find all of the information that is required to efficiently manage the equipment. The Managing Equipment entry point enables you to link to a variety of equipment information from a single form. This feature reduces the amount of time spent searching for equipment information by equipment operators, technicians, planners, managers, and so on.

The Manage Equipment shortcut is a link to the Equipment Search program (P1701E). From this workspace, you can:

• Search for equipment.

• View equipment information detail.

• View equipment status history.

• Create and update equipment messages.

• View the PM backlog.

• View equipment specification data.

• View and update meter readings.

The View Equipment Information form appears when you access Manage Equipment.
