Apply Checklists to Assets and Maintenance Strategies

Prev Top Next More

After you have created a checklist and added tasks to it, you can apply the checklist to assets and maintenance strategies so that it can be completed by users in the field. How and where you apply a checklist depends on the type of checklist (order or asset) and the VertiGIS FM product whose assets it is intended to manage. Refer to Checklist Functionality by Product for an overview of how maintenance strategies are applied in various VertiGIS FM products.

In VertiGIS FM Buildings, you can use both order and asset checklists created on the checklist administration page.

Checklist Types

Field

Description

Order checklist

Assigned to maintenance strategy intervals. A user must complete the checklist the checklist before they can close orders generated by the maintenance strategy.

Order checklists are managed in the Order Checklists section on the checklist administration page.

Asset checklist

Assigned directly to an asset. This checklist can only be completed once for each asset to which it is assigned.

Order checklists are managed in the Checklists section on the checklist administration page.

Land transaction checklist

Assigned directly to a land transaction in VertiGIS FM Parcel. This checklist can only be completed once for each land transaction to which it is assigned.

Order checklists are managed in the Land Transaction Checklist section on the checklist administration page.

You can apply an order checklist to any maintenance interval you create for a building asset (for example, a real estate, building, floor, room), or building construction. The checklist will be presented to any users who complete orders generated by these intervals.

You can apply an order checklist to any asset managed in VertiGIS FM Buildings that has an Intervals section on its details page. For building constructions only, order checklists are assigned in the Checklists section on the building construction's details page, or on the checklist administration page.

You can only apply order checklists to one type of asset in VertiGIS FM Buildings. For example, if you apply an order checklist to a building construction, you will be unable to apply to a maintenance interval for a building.

You can apply an asset checklist directly to a building. This type of checklist can only be completed once for each building to which it is assigned.

in the Checklists section on the building construction's details page.

in the Building Constructions section on the checklist's details page in the checklist administration. You can access this section by double-clicking a checklist in the Order Checklists section on the checklist administration page.
