Use this activity to connect each tool and facility to a site, maintenance organization, and/or sales part. This connection allows you to define valid tool and facilities for each site and maintenance organization, and then to validate tool and facility usage during planning of the work order. You can also connect a sales part to each tool or facility on a site so that the use of a tool or facility can be invoiced to a customer. The amount of tools are also registered for each site, which enables you to evaluate whether all planned work orders that are dependant of tools can be performed on time.
If the amount of tools is greater than one (1) and if the tool or facility is not serialized or separate individuals, you will not be able to register the connection with equipment objects.
Tools and facilities will be defined for use on operations in IFS/Vehicle Information Management (IFS/VIM) on work orders, PM actions and standard jobs in IFS/Maintenance.
