Fire A Scheduled Task
You now have the capability to select a Scheduled Task and "Fire It" (send it to your task list) whenever you want. That's right, just select any of your Preventive Maintenance tasks, click on the Trigger button, and bang, it's now a task in your list.
Why is this so awesome?
Well, it's quite simple really. Let's say it's Thursday afternoon, and you have completed all of this week's preventive maintenance tasks, plus all of your work requests have also been handily dealt with...what else are you to do? Why not get ahead of yourself and fire off a few of your PMs from next week? Ya, that's right, get some stuff done now so you can free yourself up from unexpected things that might come up next week. So next time you are bored with nothing to do...just Fire It!
Attach A Link or Document
As part of our ongoing efforts to bring you access to everything Maintenance within our interface, we now allow you to link, within a PM, to a hosted document or url. For documents, we first recommend that you set up a free Dropbox account and learn how to upload all of your documents to their Public Folder which allows you to create individual document links. Once that has been done, simply copy and paste that link within the External URL field in the Scheduled Task Details. Next time your PM is sent to your Task List, click on Notes to view the document link.
Attaching documents to a PM could be used for example for MSDS or documentation that needs to be printed and signed by a contractor. It's really up to you, but now you don't have to go looking for anything outside of Maintenance Care, it will be there for you when you need it.
