  2. Select the production batch that you want to add the loss to.

     

  3. Click the Insert New Record () button in the relevant section below the production batches grid.



  4. Complete the following fields for each loss you add:

  5. Click the Save Changes () button to save the loss reason.


Adding Time Loss Reasons to a Log Sheet

Adding time loss reasons to a log sheet enables you to specify the reasons for asset downtime during a specific shift.

To add a time loss reason to a log sheet, you need to do the following:

  1. Open the log sheet edit window and click the Time Losses tab.



  2. Click the Insert New Record () button on the toolbar to add a new loss reason.



  3. Complete the following fields:



    Field

    Description

    Start\End Time

    The date and time the loss started and ended.

    Notes:

    • A log sheet cannot have time losses with overlapping time slots. In other words, one time loss must end before another can start.
    • A time loss' start time cannot be before the log sheet's start time; and the time loss' end time cannot be after the log sheet's end time.

    Tree Path

    Select the asset or component that failed and resulted in the time loss.

    Notes:

    •  The drop-down only lists the log sheet asset, and its immediate child assets and components that have been:

    • enabled for time losses
    • configured with time loss reasons

    Time Loss Reason Code

    The loss that occurred.

    Notes:

    • You must select a Component Code before selecting the Time Loss Reason Code.
    • Only time loss reasons linked to the selected asset will be listed in the lookup window.

    The work order for the repairs required to correct the problem.

    Either , double-click the field to create a new work order, OR click the Lookup () button to browse for, and select an existing work order.

    Note: Time losses can be configured with user defined fields (UDFs). UDFs are displayed as the last columns in the time losses grid.

  4. Click the Save Changes () button to save the loss reason.
