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!
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,

The 7 and a 1/2 minute video below shows you what's inside and how to use the TATEMS Fleet Maintenance software report called:
All Work Orders Parts Totals By Equipment Number
This report can be found in TATEMS under:
Reports->More Reports->Report Type: Work Orders
You will discover how to use the various criteria like:
Date Completed Range (so you can see parts costs over a specific period)
Equipment Number
Part Description and how to use wild cards so you can show costs for specific items like tires or brakes.
Part Number.
Work Order Number
The report gives you the total parts costs for each equipment and a grand total of parts costs of all the equipment included in the report
Enjoy!
The video below shows you the new features added to TATEMS version 4.6.26.011 released Mar 22, 2019
This includes a huge time saver, that allows you to edit a work order from the Parts Inventory Screen instead of the old way of having to:
1. Note the Equipment Number Note
2. Note the Work Order Number
3. Close the Parts Inventory Screen
4. Go find the equipment
5. Find the work order
6. Then open the work order for editing.
Now… instead of doing all that, you can just double click on the Work Order in “Where This Part Installed List” on the Parts Inventory Screen
You can get always the latest update here:
