TrackAbout Maintenance Module

The Maintenance Module enables the recording, tracking and reporting of maintenance actions and other procedures used in your business to manage your assets..

By enabling the Maintenance module you can:

  • Create a list of maintenance actions that will be displayed on the handhelds and can then be performed on your assets
In this example the "Make Pack", "Handwheel", "Safety", "Shotblast" etc buttons are custom maintenance actions
