Learn from the Past with PMXpert's Asset History

How do you know if one of your Assets is a lemon? Does it cost too much to keep it maintained or cause more trouble than it is worth? With PMXpert’s Asset History screen, it is easy to check whether you should keep an asset going or put it out to pasture.

In the Assets screen, click on the History tab. Below, you can view detailed records about the asset’s history:
  • Meter: An Asset's meter readings are updated automatically when a Work Order Service is completed or when a Cost record is entered, but you may also manually enter new readings. All of these readings are recorded in the Asset’s Meter History.
  • Services: This tab keeps a record of all Services performed on the Asset.
  • Costs: Costs are further sub-categorized into All, Parts, Labor, Fluid and Other. Click on the tab to view the related costs, and check the Totals along the bottom of the grid.
  • Procedures: This tab displays all Procedures completed for Services performed on the Asset.
  • Locations: This tab records all the Locations in which the Asset has been stored.
  • Purchase Orders: Any Purchase Orders containing items purchased for the Asset will be listed under this tab.
If you want to review all the costs for all of the Assets you operate, go to PMXpert's main History screen and click on the sub-tabs to filter the view for each category: All, Parts, Labor, Fluid and Other.
