Redwood: Use Repair Suggestions in the Maintenance Technician Workbench
With this update, you can use AI Assist to generate a repair suggestion in the maintenance technician workbench, using the work order description as a problem statement. AI Assist looks for information from past work orders on similar assets of the same associated item and suggests repair strategies for you to get started.
You can review the sources of the repair suggestion, as the referenced work order numbers are included in the suggestion. The repair suggestion typically includes a summary of the work performed, including the failures, causes, resolutions, parts, and operations. If you like a suggestion, you can review it and save it as a note. If not, you can always update the problem statement to generate a new repair suggestion. You can also edit the current suggestion and save it as a note.
