AREA Equipment - Details Page

To open an AREA Equipment Details Page, click on the desired Equipment ID hyperlink in the Equipment Main Screen (or any other screen). See IMS Details Page.

The Equipment Details Page can be divided into sections:

Header

The header of the detail page shows the name of the Equipment / Equipment ID and several navigation options.

For more information on the icons see IMS Details Page.

Details

Most of the fields listed in this section are described in Creating new AREA Equipment. In addition, the following data may also show here:

• FLOC Level - the level of the parent FLOC read from interfaced CMMS, when applicable. This field is not editable but calculated. If the value for the FLOC Level is not available, this field is hidden.

• SAP Equipment ID – an interfaced field with SAP.

• SAP Interface Status – “IMS” - Source is IMS, or “SAP” - Source is SAP (confirmed), or “SAP Synthetic” - Synthetic equipment created for a FLOC with no equipment, or “SAP Synthetic Review” - Synthetic equipment but in need of review.

• Inspection Reason – inherited from the AREA-FLOC. This is an API or other classification.

• Longitude, Latitude and Altitude – can be specified.

• Visible in & Owner - should show FMA.

Deleting Equipment

To delete an Equipment:

• Go to the Equipment Details Page.

• In the Details section, click Edit.

• Uncheck the Active checkbox to make the Equipment inactive.

• Click Save.

• You will be asked to if the (AREA-)FLOC should also be inactive. You can click Yes or No. In both cased the Equipment can be deleted.

• Now the Delete button will also show in the Details section.

• Click Delete.

• A pop-up will ask you to confirm. Review the details and click OK (or Cancel). Note: You may need to first remove an Explicit object.

A pop-up message will appear stating that the deletion of the Equipment was successful.

Schedules

All Schedules created in the area will show here. Thus Schedules assigned to this AREA Equipment will show, but also those assigned to the other Equipment under the AREA-FLOC. You can also create a new Schedule from here. The table below explains the grid information.

Note: When a default Schedule is displayed here, you should create an inspection Schedule. Once that Schedule is Approved, the default Schedule will disappear. If there is no need for a Schedule, set the Inspection Reason of the FLOC to "CLASS 4".

Schedule grid:

Card View

You can change from grid view to card view. To do this, click the display button  in the top right corner. Each Schedule will then be displayed as a Card.

Settings

You can also click the settings button manage which columns are shown / hidden.

Filter

You can use the filters to see specific Schedules. By default, it filters for the uncredited Schedules. For more information on filters see IMS Main Screen (Grid List).

Creating Schedules

Schedules can be created in 3 ways.

• DEFAULT Schedules are automatically created when a new piece of Equipment is added. These auto-created Schedules act as a “safety net” for which the minimal time interval should be set (12 months) for the DEFAULT Schedule.*

• CAIR, and INSPECTION Schedules are created via the Schedule menu or in the Equipment Condition History (ECH) detail views.

• For a recurring Schedule when it is credited via an ECH, a new recurring Schedule is created which is populated with the details/attributes/scope copied from the credited Schedule.

* When you create and approve an Inspection Schedule the Default Schedule will be deleted (because there is a valid Inspection Schedule for the Equipment). If all Inspection Schedules for the Equipment are credited (not applicable to recurring), made inactive or deleted, the Default Schedule would come back. For Equipment belonging to an AREA-FLOC with a “Class 4” Inspection Reason, no default Schedules will be generated.

Equipment NID Date

A piece of Equipment can have multiple Schedules of different types (e.g. Inspection Schedules and Circuit Corrosion Schedules). The Next Inspection Date (NID) for the Equipment is based on the earliest NID for the active Schedules.

For more information on Schedules see FMA Schedules.

Condition History

The Condition History section shows all inspections that were performed for the Equipment.

The ECH is used to document historical information on pieces of Equipment obtained during the FMA work. Significant events in the Equipment lifecycle should be recorded with an ECH.

Once the ECH is approved, it will be a permanent record that can be retrieved from either its active location or from a Record Archive or Salvage location.

There are different types of Condition Histories. Some will have only Narratives (when no inspection was performed but significant events should be registered), others both credit a Schedule or multiple Schedules and describe the (FMA) work and findings associated with the Schedule(s) using Checklists.

The table below explains this data grid.

Equipment Condition history grid:

Note: You can change from grid view to card view. To do this, click the display button  in the top right corner. Each ECH will then be displayed as a Card.

To create a new ECH from here:

• Click the + button.

 For more information on ECHs see FM ECHs.

Hierarchy

The Hierarchy grid shows the AREA Equipment together with its General Component. 

Equipment Strategy 

The Equipment strategy allows you to capture more information related to the FMA work. In edit mode the section is shown as a Rich Text Field (RTF) with several features.

Rich Text Default

IMS offers the possibility to define rich text defaults for several sections in IMS. for more information see IMS Details Page.

Specs

Equipment Specifications stores the asset integrity data for the specific Equipment group. For AREA Equipment there are no specific Specs. For more information on the Specs section and on inheriting Specs see IMS Details Page.

Drawings and Documents

Use this section to search for and link drawings to the Equipment.

Attachments

In this section pictures, drawings, reports, and other data can be uploaded and saved to be part of the Equipment file. For more information on using the Attachment section see IMS Details Page.

Description

Additional Equipment data, that was not captured in the Detail and the Specs sections of the Equipment, can be entered in the Description section. Like the Equipment Strategy section, this is also a Rich Text Field (RTF) (see IMS Details Page).

Recommendation

During the RBI workshop and Corrosion Loop review, valuable recommendations are often suggested by the team. These, and other, can be capture in the Recommendations section. This is also a Rich Text Field (RTF) (see IMS Details Page).
