Scheduling work order activities (Infor EAM)

Schedule work order activities according to geographic location. To schedule a work order activity, first create the work order activity, and then schedule it. Search for equipment for which there are open work orders, and then schedule labor based on location for convenience.

The Work Order Activities list displays a separate record for every work order, activity, and schedule combination. The system displays work orders without activities in the grid, but each work order must have an activity in order to schedule it.

To schedule work order activities:

Perform a GIS Map Search.
Select the work order to schedule.
Use the Actions menu to select Schedule WOs, and then click Submit.
Specify the From Point and To Point on the linear equipment record for which to display work order activities.

Note: The system only displays From Point and To Point if the equipment record for which you are viewing work orders is a linear equipment record.
Select the work order activity for which to schedule. The system displays the information for the work order activity in the Labor Details section.
Click Add Schedule.
The system automatically populates WO-Activity-Trade with the work order, activity, and trade for the selected work order activity. The system also populates Scheduled Date with the scheduled start date of the work order activity, Act. Est. Hours with the number of hours planned for the work order activity, Act. Sched. Hours with the number of hours scheduled for the work order activity, and Act. Actual Hours with the total hours booked to date for the work order activity.
