Updating Asset Attributes in SC Provider

When you come onsite to service a faulty asset and you see that asset information captured by your client is not up to date or something critical is missing, you can make the required changes to asset data from SC Provider.

Note

Your client should authorize updates to asset attributes. Otherwise, asset data cannot be edited on work orders.

Creating New Assets in SC Provider

The assets for which your client created service requests may not always be the ones that stand behind the operations halt. You are responsible for identifying what piece of equipment needs to be repaired or replaced. Having the power to add new assets to your client’s asset catalog might be crucial. It helps to ensure that work orders are associated with the correct assets.

titleClick to view use cases for this feature:
  • For example, the work order that has been submitted to you tells you about a problem with some equipment but is not linked to any asset. It also turns out that the required asset does not exist in your client’s catalog. That is when the ability to create assets comes into play.
  • The asset associated with the work order is not the only asset that needs to be repaired as part of the requested maintenance service. In this case, you can create and link several more assets to a maintenance work order.
  • An incorrect asset is added to a work order. You want to remove the original asset and link the WO to the corresponding asset.


Note

Your client should grant you two permissions to create new assets in SC Provider:

  • Ability to change assets on work orders
  • Ability to create assets on work orders

Contact your client for more details.
