Maintenance Console: Overview
The Maintenance Console ( ) enables you to manage all aspects of your work requests from submitting the request to closing it, all from one location. With its filter, reporting, and export features, it also operates as a basis for your reports. You can set the data you need, export the data, and print the exported files. ab-bldgops-console.axvw
The Console shows only work that needs your attention, as the console filters requests by your role. For example, if you sign on as a work team supervisor, you will see only work requests assigned to your work team, while logging on as a business manager, you would see only requests requiring your approval.
When Maintenance mobile app users sync their devices, the changes are uploaded to the Archibus database and reflected in the Maintenance Console. Likewise, updates from OnSite are reflected in the Maintenance Console.
You can use the Console to process both your Corrective Maintenance and Preventive Maintenance work. The Maintenance Console processes work based on SLAs that you define using the SLA Console. See Creating Service Level Agreements Using the SLA Console .
If your site supports self-service users requesting work using Archibus Workplace , the Maintenance Console will include corrective work generated from this tool. See Using Archibus Workplace .
