Mainsaver Customizing

The following is a very small sample of the EAM Expert Mainsaver Customization projects.  More detail (such as screen prints and implementation) on any of these changes will be furnished upon request.  As you read through this list, ask yourself, have you ever wished you could see a value (such as Work Order information) on a screen when creating a record (such as a Purchase Order) so that you can make a quick and informed decision?  If so, you’re not alone!  That’s how most of these customization were born.  The software should work for you and not the other way around.  You’re success with Mainsaver hinges on usability and minimizing keystrokes.

 

GENERAL

  • If a master record is deactivated (PM, Asset, Part, Supplier, or Employee) based on a status change, the record will be shaded grey in the table view.

SHOP FLOOR

  • When a Craft is “completed” (using the Finish Work feature and unchecking the “Close WO as well”), that Craft Line for the Work Order will stop appearing in Shop Floor. Usefull for multi-craft Work Orders.

ASSET MODULE

  • On the Asset Financial Tab, added a new field showing a new value called TOTAL-ASSET-COST which adds the Life-To-Date Cost with the Asset Cost.
  • On the Asset Financial Tab, added a new Tax Rate pull-down field. The value chosen carries to the Purchase Order Detail Grid for reference purposes.
  • On the Asset Main Tab, added various user defined fields (renamed as VIN, Motor Size, Brand, In Service Date, Plate Expiration Date, and Condition). The new VIN field is visible on the PO Detail Costing Tab

WORK ORDER MODULE

  • On the Work Order Tab, when the Asset Critical factor is “F” turn the Asset field red AND shows the words “Needs Supervisor Approval”. When the Asset critical factor is either “D” or “E” the Asset field turns yellow and the words “Limited Use Asset” are shown.
  • On the WO Extended Print, added estimates and ACTUALS for labor, material, and contract dollars.
  • On the Work Order Detail Tab, added a new Ship To pulldown field. This Ship To value carries to the Purchase Request which then carries to the Purchase Order (both for reference purpose only).
