Build and Manage Work Plans

First, you'll create a library of work step templates for individual tasks (1). Organize those step templates into work plan templates. You can create a library of work plan templates, such as a library of asset maintenance procedures (2), and then define rules that select the right plans for work assignments (3).

When you create a work order or work order line item, your rules add a point-in-time copy of plans and their steps based on your rules. Also, you can generate work plans on existing work orders or work order line items (4).

Your workers can then see what to do in the work plans that appear. Front-line workers can view the work plans on-site on their mobile app and back-office workers can view them on their desktops. As they perform steps, they can mark them as completed (5).
