Define Workshop

Explanation

This activity is used to define the workshops at which maintenance will be performed. Workshops are also used when forecasting the workload on personnel and material.

A workshop is connected to a specific site. The workshops defined in Fleet and Asset Management Workshops page are created automatically as maintenance organizations in IFS/Basic Data for Maintenance. These maintenance organizations can be viewed in the Maintenance Organizations page.

When defining workshops, it is possible to select a certain workshop as your preferred workshop and to connect valid locations to a workshop. When locations are connected, and when you are working on a work order (in IFS/Work Order Management) leading to a serial structure change, values for Workshop and Location will appear automatically. It is not allowed to block the preferred workshop.

To connect valid locations to the workshop, you can use Location Code per Workshop page.

Prerequisites

• To define a workshop, the site must be connected to the current user's ID.
• To connect a location(s) to a workshop, the workshop code and location code must be defined. The workshop must not be blocked.

System Effects

• The workshop is automatically created as a maintenance organization.
• The workshop can be connected to modifications and tasks.
• A valid location code is connected to a workshop. When performing a structure change on a work order, the location code and workshop will receive their values by default.
