Best Placement for Entering Failure Codes on MP2ACCESS2000 Work Orders

Question:

Our system does not have failure codes set up, as they were tracked differently. Where would be the optimal location to enter failure codes on the work order in MP2ACCESS2000?

Hey Jim, have you activated the failure analysis feature in MP2? To confirm, click on Tools/Setup/Workorders and look for the option labeled "enable failure analysis". Make sure you are logged in as the system admin to view it. Once this is set up, you will be able to input the "reason for outage" in the work order. I hope I addressed your query correctly. On a separate note, I find it frustrating how MP2 mandates defining a RFO for each equipment item.

Thank you, that was precisely the information I needed. This answer perfectly aligns with my search query and provides the exact details I was seeking.

In my opinion, the optimal location to enter failure codes would be in the 'Details' or 'Description' section of the work order entry in MP2Access2000. This way, anyone viewing the work order, regardless of their role, could easily see and understand the nature of the failure. That said, it would be important to maintain a standardized format or nomenclature for these codes, to ensure clarity and consistency across all entries.

In MP2ACCESS2000, the most optimal place to enter failure codes would probably be under the "Failures" tab in the "Work Order" section. This is specifically designed to record and track equipment and machinery failures. It's logically organized and can be easily accessed by all the necessary departments. However, it might be a good idea to consult your user manual or technical support before implementing this, to make sure you are following best practices.

In MP2 Access 2000, an optimal location to enter failure codes would be in the Notes section of the work order. This way, when the work order is being viewed or reviewed, the failure codes can be seen in context with the rest of the work details. Just remember, while entering codes here makes them easily visible, it may have limitations if you plan to run detailed failure analysis reports. You might have to consider a more structured approach for that, like using user-defined fields or another dedicated field for this purpose.

It sounds like incorporating failure codes directly on the work order in MP2ACCESS2000 can really streamline your tracking process. A good spot might be to add them in a dedicated field within the work order details section; this way, they can be easily referenced and analyzed alongside the work performed. Alternatively, consider a notes section where users can input specific codes and any additional context about the failure—this could help enhance communication among team members and provide valuable insights for future maintenance and analysis.
