Overview of Maintenance Work Execution

Oracle Fusion Cloud Maintenance allows you to execute work orders in the Maintenance Dispatch List or My Maintenance Work pages. In general, work orders can only be executed after they are created, edited, and released for execution. Each page provides different capabilities; therefore, you must analyze your business process before choosing which page you will use for work order reporting and completion.

See the Execute Maintenance Work chapter in this user guide to learn about the capabilities and use of the Maintenance Dispatch List page. The Execute My Maintenance Work chapter focuses on the capabilities, differences, and use of the My Maintenance Work page.

Maintenance Dispatch List

You can execute work orders in Maintenance Dispatch List by each operation step that is designated as a count point. As part of the operation completion, you can also report the following transactions: material issue or return, resource consumption or reversal, as well as meter readings.

You can report these:
  • Material and resource usages automatically or manually. The material and resource transactions can be reported based on the requirements specified in the maintenance work order operation step or manually by the actual usage, depending on the item or resource setup. You can also use the scanning devices for easy reporting.
  • You can report quality results as well as capture asset failure details for future analysis and trending. Quality can be captured at an operation or work order level, while failure capture is performed at any level of a work order before or after release.
  • Maintenance work order exceptions for the problems that arise during maintenance activity, such as material shortage, resource unavailability, and so on. You can also review all the maintenance transactions that are reported on the shop floor. You can run the scheduled process to transfer the maintenance transactions to costing. The maintenance execution transaction details and maintenance work order status updates are transferred to costing for accurate costing of the maintenance work orders.

To summarize, the Maintenance Dispatch List page lets you perform these tasks:

  • Review maintenance work order details for each operation and report execution transactions.
  • Report operation completion, material, and resource transactions.
  • Report exceptions for the maintenance work order operations.
  • Report the latest asset meter readings (if mandatory readings are required for the asset).
  • Transfer the transactions from maintenance to costing (using a scheduled process).
