Be you an external provider or an in-house technician, you can update asset statuses on work orders — on condition that your clients activate this preference for you in their settings.

Available Statuses

In ServiceChannel Provider, two statuses become available to you:

  • In Use: By default, all assets are in the In Use status that means they are operating.
  • Out For Repair: You move an asset to this status when you take the asset out of the location to make repairs.

titleCheck the example of a situation when you may need to change the asset status.

Let’s say you arrived at a location and stand before a broken asset you were requested to service. You find it impossible to fix the asset while on-site and decide to take the piece of equipment out for repair. To capture the movement of the faulty asset out of the location, you need to set the asset status to Out For Repair. You may also be required to temporarily install a different asset to avoid bringing the location’s operations to a standstill.
