Is possible to apply the following change:
During an inspection, the job interval (or next due date) is settled by the job interval defined at the equipment, not by the control category of the job as it is now.
If an equipment has to be inspected sooner than what is stablished at the control category, we have to manually change each job interval of each job. We can not do it in bulk. Even if we define the inspection period at the equipment, this is not taken into accound.
To better understand your needs, which type of job are you performing? Is it on a single equipment, or are you performing the job on multiple equipments at once?
The job interval always follows the equipment owner’s regime, but inspectors can adjust the settings for that regime, which will be applied as the default for all jobs. This means you can modify the job interval in your settings, and it will become the default for all jobs performed on equipment within that regime.
This is exactly what I described. The control category defines the job interval of the equipment.
However, we have the same type of equipment that in certain companies has to be inspected every year, while in other companies it needs to be inspected every 6 months, and even every 3 months in steel mills. The checklist (and of course the control category) is the same for all.
If the job interval defined for each equipment is respected when we proceed with a job, it will help a lot. Otherwise, we now need to manually change each job of each equipment that requires a different job interval than what is defined in the control category. And it happens to us a lot, an uncountable number of jobs, probably more than 1,000 every 3 months.
