Once you have chosen the correct asset Import method, please ensure to format and prepare data according to the template structure. Most importantly please follow the instructions detailed on the Excel template which will assist you with the import method
Step 6
(if you are not using Asset Management, skip this step, go to Step 7)
Once your assets are imported, the final stage is to put the assets on a PPM Schedule for servicing
We advise scheduling assets by the client or by client and client Location
It is not advisable to just select all assets in the 'PPM Scheduler' and apply the same schedule immediately. We tell you this so if you make a mistake, you don't have lots of schedules to delete for many assets
Please read the following article on the 'PPM Scheduler' to further understand how to set up schedules for client assets
Step 7
Now you're ready to create a job, choose a client, and assign it to your team in seconds. Double click on an available date and time slot on your schedule to get started!
