Defining inspection route inspection points

Associate inspection routes with a particular sequence of inspection points. The options shown depend on whether you are defining an inspection route for equipment or a route template.

To define inspection route inspection points:

  1. Open the Routes form.
  2. Select the inspection route for which to define inspection points, and then click the Inspection Points tab. The system automatically populates Sequence Number with the next available integer based on the setting of the installation parameter INCRLINO.
  3. Click Add Point.
  4. Equipment or Category—Enter the equipment or category that is first in the inspection route sequence. The system automatically populates the equipment or category description, Equipment Type, and Equipment Org.
    Note: For regular inspection routes, you associate equipment inspection points. For route templates, you associate category inspection points.
  5. Point Type—Enter the point type.
  6. Level—Enter a level value when associating category inspection points. This value tells the system where the inspection point is found in the equipment structure. The equipment specified on the work order is a level 1. Any child equipment items (of the same type) are a level 2 or higher. If you leave this field blank, the system automatically searches the existing equipment hierarchy (as defined on the Equipment form). The system associates inspection points for all child equipment that match the specified class and category, independent of the level.
  7. Point—Enter the point that is first in the inspection route sequence. The system automatically populates the point description.
  8. Sequence Number—Enter the sequence number of the inspection point.
  9. Click Submit.
