Machine maintenance and downtime

Live status of every machine

The machine board shows each machine as running, free or broken, with the current job, the person on it, the next job and how many jobs are queued.

Planned maintenance blocks time

Add planned maintenance with a start and an end. It appears in the schedule as a hatched block, and a job planned over it gets a warning. Admins are reminded before the service starts.

Breakdowns stay open until fixed

A breakdown without an end time blocks the machine until someone marks it as fixed. Workers whose jobs on that machine may be delayed get a notification.

• Types: planned maintenance, breakdown, repair
• Status: planned, in progress, completed
• Notes and costs for each record

Service by run hours

Set a service interval in run hours, in days, or both, for example every 500 hours or every 90 days. Run hours come from the time recorded on the machine's jobs, so nobody has to read a counter. When the service is due, admins get a notification and the machine shows it on the board.

History for every machine

Each machine’s page lists its maintenance and repair records next to its queue and recently completed jobs. The reports show downtime hours for any period.
