Equipment Class Property

The Equipment Class Property (tab) defines the specific equipment items included in the class and determines what will be displayed for selection when adding a service to a site. To add equipment class property, first select an equipment class from the upper grid. Then, add equipment using the toggle buttons.

Assign the Equipment Class to an Equipment Type

Pathway: Setup > Services > Equipment Type

Once the Equipment Class has been created, it must be assigned to an Equipment Type. This allows the equipment properties assigned to the class to be available for selection when adding a service to a site.


Connecting Equipment to Active Services

Pathway: Open the Site > Add Active Service

When adding an active service that involves equipment with property options, a green gear icon displays above the 'Requested By' field. By clicking on the icon, you can specify the properties for the particular piece of equipment used by the service. Once properties are added, they will be displayed with the active service and on the work order.
