How You Search for Work Order Operations by Resource Instance and Work Order Description in the Maintenance Dispatch List

In maintenance work execution, maintenance technicians use the Review Maintenance Dispatch List page to review work order operations and report transactions, such as operation completion, material issue or, return, and resource consumption or reversal. To access their assigned work at the Review Maintenance Dispatch List, maintenance technicians manually search for their assigned work using search attributes such as asset, work order, status, start date, work area, work center, resource, and completion date.

As maintenance technicians, you might also want to find the assigned work by resource instance, and work order description, which prior to this update were not available as search options. Therefore, the Maintenance Dispatch List user interface has been enhanced to make it possible to search by these two new attributes:

  • Resource Instance
  • Work Order Description

You can add these two additional filter attributes to the search via the Add tab at the bottom of the search page. These two new search attributes are designed with a free-text design pattern which allows the user to perform partial keyword searches.

In addition to searching by work description, you can also see the work description as a column in the search results table view. Resource instance isn’t available to be displayed in the search results table view.
