No next service?

Do you see a red exclamation point next to Service item in the Menu? The exclamation mark informs that there are service objects that should have a next service date but do not.

Figure 1: A red exclamation point on Service items indicates that there are items without the next service

This may be because you chose not to automatically generate a next service when you added a service object with a service interval set. If you have chosen to let the system generate a next service, i.e. answered Yes to the question you see in figure 2, this will otherwise happen automatically.

Figure 2: When you add a service object with a service interval, you are asked if a service should be generated automatically. If you answer yes, a first service order is created here and when you have performed it, a next service is generated automatically. If you answer no, no service orders will be created automatically.

How to find service objects without next service

To find objects where service has not been generated do the following:

  1. Click on the search button
  2. Select a filter with these settings:
  • Without a next service
  • With service interval

If you want to generate the next service for several objects at the same time, click on the collection function, mark which objects are to be updated and click on Update service. You find it under + Collection functions.

Old service objects in the list or objects that should not have new service?

If you have objects where service is not to be generated, you can set, on the object, the number in the field NUMBER OF SERVICE ORDER TO BE AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED to 0 (by default set to 1 as in figure 5) or set the object as Inactive (Inactivate in figure 4).
