  1. We need the ability to change the equipment number on equipment with an active malfunction.

    The customers consistently submit work orders using the incorrect asset id and if they submit it in a down status you can not change the asset id without clearing the malfunction. If you clear the malfunction to change the id and then input the malfunction again it will track as scheduled downtime which skews your metrics. This forces us to cancel the work order and create it again as a new work order backdating the malfunction start time to the original work order time so our metrics are correct.

    Either let us modify the asset IDs even in a down…

    This ability is already present in the EFP.  Create a new malfunction as an unscheduled by changing the downtime on the task to the date earlier than task created date. Along with that we are also providing the users to delete the malfunctions, change the asset and create a malfunction if required and users can change it to unscheduled by changing the time.

  3. Closing PM on the Compliance Finish date requires Variance?

    When closing a PM on the final Compliance date eFactory is asking for a variance? This is new, never required one before on last date.

  4. We need a way to edit compliance start/ finish dates. My site is M-F and PMs open and close on weekends which leads to a bottle neck

    We need a way to edit compliance start/ finish dates. My site is M-F and PMs open and close on weekends which leads to a bottle neck on some weeks.

  5. We need a way to edit compliance finish dates.

    We need a way to edit PMs that come due on the weekends. Or at least edit the compliance dates to match the work schedule of the plant.

  6. Batch Review Reconciliation on Completed Task

    Batch Review Reconciliation on reviewed WO/TASK that are completed. KMS process staff can review the completed and cancelled jobs. Do a mass select all and one click for later batch processing. This would save time versus doing it one by one and then waiting for system to process the data.

  7. Equipment readings (Meters) that accept free form Data entry

    There are only three types of readings available; "Hit Count," "Hours operated," and "Units Produced." These meter types require that each reading increments from the previous reading. However, when trying to record fluctuating readings such as Level or Temperature it is possible to have readings that are lower than the previous reading. Would like to see a reading type that allows free form data entry so a fluctuating reading can be tracked over time.

  9. Create a booked labor report so each technician can verify their total booked labor on a daily basis

    Tech utilization is critical to the new SLR metrics. Need a dashboard where techs can go check their total booked labor by day/shift to ensure they closed all of their work orders prior to leaving.

    This should be the My Work screen of the Work Module. Daily Schedules should be built using the Planner/Scheduler Module within eFactoryPro. Filling our crews and technicians to capacity will give our techs the list of work you are looking for.


    Please visit the FMSOS Critical Element for Work Execution Management > Daily Scheduling for more information.

  10. All breakdowns need priority 1 or 2 to be able to assign

    Can you please change the system so that all breakdowns become priority 1 or 2 so that Supervisors and Managers can assign these tasks in their portal?

    Thanks for the feedback! It is greatly appreciated and keep them coming!


    Not all breakdowns should be listed as P1 or P2. These break-ins that break the weekly schedule should be based upon asset criticality, part availability, and customer need. We need to prioritize these jobs among all the other work, including the scheduled maintenance such as PMs, PdMs, and FMs from the weekly schedule. This is our Validation and Approval step of Work Execution Management and a core element to building a reliability program.


    This is how we break the cycle of reactive maintenance.


    Thanks again,

  11. Issues recording time.

    Always having to repetitively put the same labor time and notes and update malfunction time and it will not record. Sometimes the WO selected will jump to another WO and record labor and notes on different WO than selected.

  12. Attachment option for customer

    The customer was once able to use/attach in the Attachment tab. It is view only for the customer now. This needs to be restored, as the customers enjoy the option, and it is extremely helpful to the planner and techs.

    Our customer portal isn't very secure if you think about it. Any past employee can technically get into the customer portal if you think about it since we give the password out to everyone at the site. If they so choose, they have the ability to create work orders. If we allow them to make changes or add attachments, those people can add some bad items directly into our database which is a big risk to ATS.

  16. Job visibility in my work

    When a technician puts time on a job, is it possible for the job to stay visible in their page (my work)?

    Thanks for the submission! As for the My Work screen, we want this to be only the list of work you want the technician to do that day/week. If the technician is assigned that task, they still have visibility of it throughout the week. Once the week is over, if the task is not completed, it returns to the queue to be rescheduled.

  17. Why?

    Why can't we schedule out further than the 16th?
    I'm the planner scheduler and the lead senior tech at this site I must be able to schedule out more than 2 weeks in advance. Otherwise I stand no chance of keeping up

  18. Allow customers to add attachments when submitting a work order.

    As a customer, it would be very beneficial to be able to add attachments to work orders I am submitting. I want to use attachment for pictures or prints describing the work needing completed.

    The system does have the capability to assign back to the planner. By returning the task to Planning, it returns it back to the Planner's queue. As for a Parts Only work order, the job does not require steps to be added to the job but since it is still a task, the steps are required to be checked off.
