Shutdown of an asset is sometimes necessary to perform a maintenance activity. You can create new shutdown information associated with an asset, or view existing shutdown history information already recorded to an asset. Shutdown information consists of start and end dates, work order numbers requiring maintenance on the asset, and specific operation sequences. While completing a work order to its operations, you can view asset shutdown information in the Asset Status window.

All shutdown information entered within the Asset Status window is for information purposes only.

   To view and define shutdown information for an asset:

1. Navigate to the Asset Status window.

2. Select an Asset Number, and click the Find button.

   All shutdown information for the current asset appears in the Shutdown Details region.

3. Select a Start date to add new shutdown information for the current asset.

4. Select an End Date.

5. Optionally associate the shutdown information to a specific work order requiring maintenance on the current asset.

   Only work orders created for the current asset are available.

6. Optionally associate shutdown information to the operation level of a work order by choosing a specific operation sequence.

7. Optionally enter a shutdown description.

8. Save your work.
