Video Discover Work Order Totals For Each Equipment

This short TATEMS Fleet Maintenance Software Video shows you how to discover your total work order/repair order costs for any piece of equipment for any date range.

You can fins this report by going to

 

Reports->More Reports->Report Type: Work Orders

Then choose

Work Order Totals Costs By Equipment Number

You can leave the criteria blank if you want to see lifetime costs for your entire fleet or you can choose a date range and a specific piece of equipment.

[Video] Parts For This Equipment Tab

In this video, you'll discover the history of the Parts For This Equip tab, how it was originally used and how it can be used now.

I did not mention it in the video but you can also hide this tab and any other unused tabs by going to

Tools->Simplify TATEMS

And then un-checking the tabs you want to hide.

You can also see the Parts For This Equip related reports by going to

Reports->More Reports->Report Type: Parts Installed

There is also the quick report for this tab for the currently selected piece of equipment under

Reports->Current Equipment Reports->Parts Report

Information from this tab is also included in the Unit Information Reports With All Equipment Data under

Current Equipment Reports

and

All Equipment Reports

It is also one of the choices for totals to be included in the Cost Per Mile/Km / Hour Report under

Reports->All Equipment Reports

And you will also find some custom spreadsheets that will pull data from the Parts For This Equip tab here

TATEMS Fleet Maintenance Software Custom Spreadsheets

When you get to that page you can press F3 on your keyboard to search the keyword “PartsForThis” without the quotes but all run together just like that.

At the time of this post, the following spreadsheets have Parts For This Equip Tab data that you can pull from your live TATEMS database.

42. TATEMSPartsForThisEquipTotalForEachYear

44. TATEMSPartsForThisEquipNumberOfTimesPartNumberUsedAndCost

132. TATEMS-PartsForThisEquipWithAllColumns

I hope this has been helpful to you!

 

 

How To Remove Extra Backups From Special Backup Folder

This video shows you how to find and remove the extra backups that are created in the special backup folder.

WARNING: Make sure you are in the correct folder called “tatems2005beBackup” before you delete anything! 

When you create backups in TATEMS you can choose where to save the backup.

In addition to the location that you choose, TATEMS also creates an extra backup that it saves it to a special folder called “tatems2005beBackup” .

Once that special folder called “tatems2005beBackup”  has 30 backups saved to it, you will start seeing a message telling you that you may want to clean out some of the older backups.

I hope this video has been helpful to you!

Thanks Again,
