Audit Locations Assets using RFID
Body
When using RFID to audit assets at a location can be done using Maximo Mobile 7.5.1. How can this be done? Can I see who did the audit and when?
The first thing you need to do is associate the RFID Tag to the assets. This is done using the attribute MOBRFIDTAG attribute on the asset object.
1) Go To Application Designer
2) Open the Asset application
3) Add a new Text box to the screen
4) In the Text Box Properties add MOBRFIDTAG to the Attribute field
While we are here in the application designer, There are a few more fields we can add.
First lest add the Last Audit Date, This will allow us to see when was the last time this asset was audited,
1) Add a new Text box to the screen
2) In the Text Box Properties add MOBLASTAUDUTDATE to the Attribute field
Then while we are at it lest add the Last Audit By field so we can see who did the audit.
1) Add a new Text box to the screen
2) In the Text Box Properties add MOBLASTAUDUTBY to the Attribute field
Now we can save and exit the application designer,
Once you have setup your queries in Mobile Data Manager to download your locations and assets, you can go to a location, view its assets and then audit the locations assets. Once this is done and you perform a refresh you can see the date the asset was audited and who performed the audit.
You can see here Wilson has been hard at work and performed an audit at 12:00 AM.
