Fault Reports Module Overview

The Fault Reports Module is designed to document faults that occur with machinery, ensuring that detailed records are kept for both initial issues and investigations. This module helps track faults and provides the necessary documentation for analysis, investigation, and maintenance follow-up.

Reporting Faults

When a fault occurs, the initial reporting stage must be completed. After that, an administrator can fill out the fault report form, which captures detailed information about the fault. These forms are essential for further investigation and analysis of the fault.

  1. Initial Fault Report Forms: Used during the first stage of reporting.
  2. Investigation Fault Report Forms: Used to capture detailed insights during the follow-up investigation.

Fault report forms can be digitised using the Form Builder functionality, making it easier to complete and store fault reports.

Fault Report Statuses & Approval Process

The fault report goes through a review process to ensure its accuracy and completeness. Managers or administrators are responsible for approving or rejecting the fault report.

Approval Workflow:

When a manager reviews a fault report, they have the option to assign the reactive maintenance task to the appropriate user, ensuring timely action on the reported fault.

Fault Report Statuses:

  1. Awaiting Approval: The fault report is awaiting review and approval by an administrator.
  2. Approved: The fault report has been reviewed and approved, indicating that the report is complete and valid.
  3. Rejected: The fault report has been rejected, usually due to incomplete or inaccurate information.

Fault Report Types & Forms

The system allows for configuration of various fault report types and forms to ensure that the reports capture all relevant details. Fault report types can be set up and edited by administrators.

Fault Report Types: These categorise the faults and help define the scope of the report. Specific forms (initial and investigation) can be linked to each fault type.

Fault Report Record Types: These additional record types can be added to fault reports to provide extra details, such as photos, videos and documents. These records allow for visual and supplementary information to be attached to the fault report, helping with better fault analysis.

Fault Report Classifications

Classifications help categorise faults based on the cause or type of issue. This provides insight into why the fault occurred and can assist in preventative measures. Specific forms can also be linked to classifications, ensuring that all necessary information is included when the classification is selected. Fault report classifications can be set up and edited by administrators.

The Fault Reports Module streamlines the process of documenting and investigating machinery faults, ensuring that all necessary details are captured and that the appropriate actions are taken. By linking fault types, record types, and classifications, the module offers flexibility in categorising and analysing faults. The approval process ensures that fault reports are accurate and complete before maintenance actions are triggered, allowing for efficient and effective resolution of machinery issues.
