Asset Maintenance
Imagine a Nova Industries packaging machine needs inspection every month and a belt replacement every six months. If the team depends on memory, a missed service could stop production and cost much more than the maintenance itself.
Asset Maintenance turns those recurring jobs into a planned schedule. It records what must be done, how often it should happen, and who is responsible, helping the team service equipment before it fails.
Before you begin#
Enable Maintenance Required on the Asset and create an Asset Maintenance Team.
Create a maintenance plan#
- Select the Asset and Maintenance Team.
- Add a task with its type, start date, periodicity, assignee, and description.
- Mark whether a certificate is required.
- Save the plan. EnigmaERP creates planned Asset Maintenance Logs for the schedule.
Use the pencil icon to open the complete child-row editor when the grid hides task fields.
Follow the work#
Open the generated log, record actions performed, add a certificate when required, and mark the work completed.
Troubleshooting#
No maintenance logs were created#
Check the start date, end date, periodicity, and assignee, then save the maintenance plan again.
The task is overdue#
Complete or cancel the correct log. Do not only change the plan because the historical occurrence still needs a result.
Frequently asked questions#
Is preventive maintenance the same as repair?#
In EnigmaERP, no. Maintenance is planned work. Asset Repair records a failure, downtime, repair cost, and possible capitalization.
Can one Asset have several tasks?#
In EnigmaERP, yes. Add separate rows for checks, calibration, cleaning, or certification.
Does maintenance affect asset value?#
Routine maintenance normally does not. A qualifying repair cost can be capitalized through the repair workflow.
