1! INTRODUCTION The MP2 Quick Start Guide leads you through key MP2 procedures so you can immediately begin to take advantage of the power of MP2. First, enter equipment records for the pieces of equipment on which to perform maintenance and enter inventory records for any necessary parts. Then, for your scheduled jobs, enter task records. Next, automatically generate work orders for the preventive maintenance (scheduled) tasks or manually create work orders for emergency work, and then print the work orders. Once the maintenance personnel completes the work, update the work order information, and then close the work orders to history. IN THIS GUIDE! Equipment! Inventory! Tasks! Work Orders 1

2! EQUIPMENT In MP2, the term equipment refers to any object on which you track maintenance. Equipment may be production related (presses, injection molders, etc.) or non-production related (air-handling units, vehicles, etc.). Equipment may also be any of the subassemblies, or components, of larger equipment. You may create an equipment record for a boiler system, and you may create another equipment record for the pump on that boiler system. You can even create an equipment record for the motor on that boiler system pump. This hierarchy helps better organize your MP2 equipment records by keeping a separate history and by tracking costs for each component. Follow these steps when creating equipment records. 1 Choose Activities Equipment Equipment from the menu bar. MP2 displays the Equipment form. 2 Click the Record View tab. MP2 displays the Record View page. 3

Tip: 3 Click at the top of the form to insert a new record. MP2 creates an equipment record and populates Site with your home site. 4 Enter a unique code identifying the equipment in the Equipment No. field, and then enter a description of the equipment in the adjacent field. Equipment No. is a required field. Datastream recommends entering only letters, numbers, and hyphens in required fields. 4 2! EQUIPMENT

3! INVENTORY Create inventory records for all of the facility s maintenance parts. MP2 tracks inventory items, including usage, quantities in multiple locations and sites, substitute items, vendors, and reorder points. Follow these steps when creating inventory records. 1 Choose Activities Inventory Inventory from the menu bar. MP2 displays the Inventory form. 2 Click the Record View tab. MP2 displays the Record View page. 3 Click at the top of the form to insert a new record. MP2 creates an inventory item record. 4 Enter a unique code identifying the item in the Item No. field, and then enter a description of the item in the adjacent field. 5

Tip: Item No. is a required field. Datastream recommends entering only letters, numbers, and hyphens in required fields. 5 Click the Stock tab in the lower half of the page. MP2 displays the Stock sub-page. 6 Enter the code identifying the warehouse storing the item in the Warehouse field. 7 Enter the code identifying the stock location in the Location field. 8 Enter the number of items at this location in the Qty on Hand field. MP2 displays the Inventory Item Cost dialog box. 9 Enter the cost in the Adjusted Unit Cost field, and then click OK. If you entered a new stock location, MP2 displays a message asking if you want to add this location. Click Yes. MP2 returns to the inventory item record. 6 3! INVENTORY

4! TASKS Task records provide information on the facility s repetitive maintenance tasks, including the frequency with which you should repeat each task. Schedule repetitive tasks by meter reading, date, or both. When the equipment reaches the scheduled meter reading and/or the current date equals the due date for the task, MP2 generates a work order. Follow these steps when creating task records. 1 Choose Activities Tasks Tasks from the menu bar. MP2 displays the Tasks form. 2 Click the Schedule tab. MP2 displays the Schedule page. 3 Click at the top of the form to insert a new record. MP2 creates a task record and populates Site with your home site. 4 Enter a unique code identifying the task in the Task No. field, and then enter a description of the task in the adjacent field. 7

Tip: Task No. is a required field. Datastream recommends entering only letters, numbers, and hyphens in required fields. 5 Choose one of these options.! Equipment-based task Click in the Equipment No. field. MP2 displays the equipment lookup table. Select the appropriate equipment record, and then click. MP2 copies the information to the bottom of the lookup table. Click OK. MP2 returns the equipment to the task record.! Location-based task Click in the Location, Sub-location 1, Sub-location 2, or Sub-location 3 field. MP2 displays the locations lookup table. Select the appropriate location or sub-location, and then click OK. MP2 returns the location or sub-location to the task record. 6 Schedule the task by selecting the equipment or location to schedule, and then by choosing one of these options. Option Date Meter Meter and Date Procedure Click the Scheduling by Date tab, and then enter the task frequency in Perform Every. Select the Schedule Type. Refer to the table below for descriptions. Enter the next date to generate a work order for the task in Next Due Date. Click the Scheduling by Meter tab, enter the code identifying the meter by which to schedule in Meter Name, and then enter the meter frequency for the task in Perform Every. Enter the current meter reading in Last Performed At. Click the Scheduling by Date tab, and then enter the task frequency in Perform Every. Select Floating for the Schedule Type. Enter the next date to generate a work order for the task in Next Due Date. Click the Scheduling by Meter tab, enter the code identifying the meter by which to schedule in Meter Name, and then enter the meter frequency for the task in Perform Every. Enter the current meter reading in Last Performed At. 8 4! TASKS

Schedule Type Floating Fixed Duplicates Description MP2 generates work orders according to the specified frequency and schedules the Next Due Date when you close the work order. When you close the work order, MP2 adds the day to the close date and then schedules the Next Due Date for that date. If you schedule the task by meter, MP2 adds the meter frequency to the meter reading on the closed work order and then schedules the next work order when the equipment reaches the designated meter reading. MP2 does not generate a floating task if you do not close the previous work order by the Next Due Date or meter reading. MP2 generates work orders and schedules the Next Due Date according to the specified frequency. For example, suppose a task s frequency is every month and MP2 generates a work order for the task on March 1 st. If you close the work order on March 20 th, MP2 generates the next work order on April 1 st. MP2 does not generate a work order if you do not close the previous work order by the Next Due Date. MP2 generates a work order each time it reaches the Next Due Date, even if an open work order for the task exists. Thus, with duplicate scheduling, you can have two open work orders for the same task on the same equipment. 4! TASKS 9

5! WORK ORDERS Generate work orders for scheduled maintenance work or manually create work orders for emergency maintenance or repair, and then print work orders for reference when performing the work. After completing the work, update labor hours, parts, and comments, and then close the work order. MP2 transfers the information to work order history and updates all relevant equipment and task records. IN THIS CHAPTER! Generating Work Orders! Creating Work Order Records! Printing Work Orders! Updating Information Before Closing! Closing Work Orders 11

Generating Work Orders Generate work orders for scheduled tasks and for equipment with readings outside statistical predictive maintenance (SPM) limits. In addition to printing generated work orders, you can also print Ready or Hold work orders, which includes approved on-site requests. When generating work orders for scheduled tasks, generate with the same frequency as the minimum frequency task. For example, if the shortest frequency task is 7 days, generate work orders at 7-day intervals. If the shortest frequency task is 7 days and you generate work orders only every 30 days, MP2 generates only one of the 7-day frequency work orders for the 30-day interval. Refer to Chapter 4: Tasks for more information on task scheduling. MP2 does not generate work orders for tasks that require more parts or labor resources than are available. MP2 displays the shortages for you to view or print. Make the corrections as necessary, and then regenerate. However, if you select to preview work orders before releasing them, you can generate work orders with parts or labor shortages. MP2 releases all selected work orders, despite parts or labor shortages. Follow these steps when generating work orders. 1 Choose Activities Work Orders Generate Work Orders from the menu bar. MP2 displays the Generate Work Orders dialog box. 2 Enter the date through which to generate work orders in the Generate Through field. 3 Select one or more work order creation options under Create Work Orders For. 4 Select Print Work Orders after Generating Them to print work orders immediately after generation. 5 Click Generate. MP2 displays a message indicating that the generation process may take several minutes. 12 5! WORK ORDERS

6 Click Yes. MP2 generates the work orders and displays a confirmation. 7 Click OK. MP2 displays the Print Generated Work Orders dialog box. 8 Select the print option, and then click OK. MP2 displays the print dialog box. 9 Click OK. MP2 prints the work order(s). Creating Work Order Records Manually create work orders for emergency or on-the-fly work on equipment or work at a certain location. Enter only basic information about the work when initially creating the work order.
