Note: The system retrieves the estimation details if the Update Mode selected is “Estimation”. However, the system retrieves the actual details if the Update Mode selected is “Actuals”.
Enter the following in the “Resource Estimates/Actual Details” multiline:
|
Resource # |
The resource for which you need to report the resource information (Alphanumeric, 40). Mandatory. The resource code should be in the “Active” status, defined in the “Work Center” business component and must be unique in the multiline. Help facility available. |
|
Resource Type |
Use the drop-down list box to specify the type of the resource, which could be “Skills”, “Equipment“, “Tools” or “Others”. The system sets the field to “Equipment” by default. Data selection in this field is mandatory. |
Note: If the “Resource Type” is set as “Skills”, ensure that the “Resource #” is defined as active “Skill #” in the “HR Setup” business component.
If the “Resource Type” is other than “Skills”, ensure that the Resource # and the Resource Type are defined as active Facility and Facility Type, in the “Work Center” business component.
|
Facility Object Code |
The number identifying the facility object for a resource for which you wish to record resource information. Help facility available |
|
From Date |
The date starting from which the resource is utilized for the maintenance report (Date Format). |
|
From Time |
The time from which the resource is utilized for the maintenance report (Time Format). |
|
To Date |
The date until which the resource is utilized for the maintenance report (Date Format). Ensure this date is later than the “From Date”. |
|
To Time |
The time until which the resource is utilized for the maintenance report (Time Format). The time entered here must be greater than the “From Time”. |
|
Est. Hours |
The estimated man hours for the resource(Decimal). |
Note: The system retrieves the Estimated Hours irrespective of whether the Update Mode is “Estimated” or “Actuals”
|
Actual Hours |
The time spent on the maintenance report (Decimal). Data entry in this field is mandatory if the “To Time” is not entered. |
|
Used Value |
The value for which the resource has been used. Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive. Note that if you wish to enter a fraction value in this field, it must be set as “Allowed” in the “Unit of Measurement Administration” business component for the given UOM. |
|
Used UOM |
Use the drop-down list box to select the unit of measurement. When the the resource type is selected is other than "skill". The system lists all the “Active” UOM defined in the “Create UOM” activity of the “Unit of Measurement Administration” business component. Data selection in this field is mandatory if a value is specified in the “Used Value” field. Ensure that the value selected in this field has a conversion factor with Stock UOM as defined in the “UDSS” business component if the Resource # provided is a Part #. The system leaves this field blank by default. |
Note: If the Update Mode is “Estimation” and if you have entered values in the “From Date/Time” and “Estimated Hours” fields, the system calculates and displays the “To Date/Time” by adding the “From Date/Time” and “Estimated Hours” fields. Similarly, if you have entered values in the “To Date/Time“ and “Estimated Hours” fields, the system calculates the “From Date/Time” by subtracting the “Estimated Hours” from “To Date/Time”.
If the Update Mode is “Actuals” and if you have entered values in the “From Date/Time” and “Actual Hours” fields, the system calculates and displays the “To Date/Time” by adding the “From Date/Time” and “Actual Hours” fields. Similarly, if you have entered values in the “To Date/Time“ and “Actual Hours” fields, the system calculates the “From Date/Time” by subtracting the “Actual Hours” from “To Date/Time”.
If the Update Mode is “Estimation”, the system computes the “Estimated Hours” as the difference between the "To Date", "To Time" and "From Date”,"From Time". Likewise, if the Update Mode is “Actuals”, the system computes the “Actual Hours” as the difference between the "To Date", "To Time" and "From Date”,"From Time"
The system ensures that the From Date - From Time and To Date- To Time are not overlapping with any other record for the same resource and resource type combination.
The system displays the following:
|
Resource Description |
The textual description for the resource. |
Note: Ensure that at least one resource detail is entered in the multiline.
Enter the following in the “Execution Ref # Details” group box:
|
Remarks |
Details of the facility object tool usage. |
Select the checkbox against the record in the “Resource Estimates/Actual Details” multiline.
Click the "Report Resource Estimates / Actuals” pushbutton at the bottom of the page to update the resource actuals for the maintenance report.
Note: If you selected the “Update Mode” as “Estimation”, the system ignores the “Actual Hours” value. Likewise, if you selected the “Update Mode” as “Actuals”, the system ignores the “Estimated Hours” value.
If the resource dates are earlier/later than the task or document level dates, the system updates the estimated dates and actual dates at task/document level.
Example, if the Estimated dates at Task level is between 01/02/2009 and 10/02/09 and the Estimated dates at Resource level are between 01/01/2009 and 11/02/09, the system updates the estimated dates at task level to the dates between 1/01/2009 and 11/02/09.
The system performs the following:
Converts the value entered in the “Used Value” field by applying the conversion factor for the given UOM and stock UOM as defined in the “UDSS” business component for Resource # which is a Part #for which UOM provided is different form the Stock UOM of the given Part # as defined in the “Part Administration” business component.
Updates the resource information for a Facility as the resource which is either serviceable, new or overhauled only if the following conditions are true:
Due date for the given task is not overdue as in the Facility Master
Due date for all the tasks in the Component Maintenance Program is not overdue if the Facility Object is a Component Part.
Due date is earlier than the date on which the facility is booked against a task.
The system updates the cost center in the Resource Actuals details, if the Accounting Process Parameter ‘Cost Center basis for Resource Adjustment’ is set as 'Base CC'’ in the “Set Options” activity of the “Account Group” business component. The cost center is derived based on the Resource Type.
For Resource type "Skill", Cost Center is derived from the Task # - Work Center - Cost Center mapping.
For Resources type "Tools / Equipment" with Facility Object #, Cost Center is derived from Facility Object # - Cost Center mapping.
For Resources type "Tools / Equipment" with no Facility Object #, Cost Center is derived from the Task # - Work Center - Cost Center mapping.
For Resources type "Tools / Equipment" with Facility Object # having no Cost Center mapped, Cost center is derived from the Task # - Work Center - Cost Center mapping.
For Resource type "Others", Cost Center is derived from the Task # - Work Center - Cost Center mapping.
Note: Task # - Work Center - Cost Center mapping is defined in the “Work Center” business component and Facility Object # - Cost Center mapping defined in the “Facility Object” business component.
The system issues the facility object to the mechanic automatically against the task if the process parameter “Auto Issue of Tools when Resource Actuals are recorded for the Task/Discrepancy?” under the entity type Package Type and the entity Log Cards and User Defined Values in the Define Process Entities activity of Common Master is set as 1/Required under the following conditions:
o Resource Type is ‘Tools’
o Update Mode is ‘Actuals’
o Status of the source task / associated status must be Planned/In Progress/Completed
o The required tool must be available for issue in the tool crib associated to work center meaning serviceable request warehouse for Part Type 'Tools' must be mapped to the work center
“Create Facilities” activity in the “Work Center” business component.
