Overview

This ADempiere business process supports both Preventive and Corrective Maintenance. It was developed with integration of current ADempiere objects in mind. Equipment maintenance is required for mobile equipment (e.g. buses, trucks, etc.) and fixed plant equipment (e.g. conveyor belts, crushers, etc.). Mobile equipment maintenance is a much more complex business process than fixed plant maintenance due to the rather randomly operational environment where maintenance occurs, fixed plant maintenance requirements is mostly considered a subset of mobile equipment maintenance requirements. This development was designed to cover mobile equipment maintenance and, hence, supports most fixed plant maintenance requirements.

Assets Groups

Meters

Meters are used to measure equipment life. This life and the average of daily usage are used for the set up of the different maintenance plans. Meters are entered in the Meters window. Given that a meter can be changed at some point of the equipment life, the meter is automatically prefixed with the asset(equipment) number where the meter is installed and the identification is completed with a serial number entered by the user.

When completing the creation of a meter, the user has to select a meter type (kilometers, tons, hours) and the maximum allowable reading per day, this value helps filtering out data entry errors in equipment usage.

Meter Readings

There are 2 windows where daily readings can be entered for an asset.

The first method is via the ADempiere asset window, the reading can be entered by selecting the "Readings" tab and then entering the meter type, the day of the reading and the reading value. The reading value is the accumulated life value as shown by the physical meter. If the value is lower than a previous reading or the value is higher than the daily usage entered when creating the meter, a warning prompt will be displayed.

The second method for entering a reading is using a new "Readings window" as shown below. This window is the preferred method when entering a set of daily readings for all the equipments in the company so you can skip a step of selecting an asset in order to enter the reading.

Standard Jobs

A standard job is the entity where the planner can design and define all the company maintenance plans.
