Maintenance

Purge Batch Data from Maintenance Import Interfaces Using a Scheduled Process

Execute a scheduled process to purge the interface tables of imported maintenance data. You can purge the table from the interfaces for an asset, maintenance work order, maintenance work definition, and product genealogy. This helps you manage the growth of product interface tables.

View Asset Work Order Cost by Maintenance Organization

View maintenance work order costs for an asset in a new tab on the Edit Asset page. You can display the costs by period or each corresponding work order, based on the organization in which an asset is maintained. You can then export the cost breakdown for further analysis.

Use the New Maintenance Management and Installed Base Asset OTBI Subject Areas

Use the new OTBI subject areas for real time, self-service reporting directly from Oracle Maintenance Cloud. The new Maintenance Management subject areas include new attributes for dual unit of measure, asset groups, inventory items, work order document references, and work order completion notes. Additionally, the new Installed Base subject areas include new attributes for dual unit of measure, asset groups, and inventory items.

Manage Assets Using Logical Hierarchy Relationships

Create logical hierarchies of assets to help you search for, interact with, and manage your assets over time.  You can create the hierarchies using simple parent and child relationships for assets that operate in the same or even across different inventory organizations. You can use your hierarchies to model a plant, production line, vehicle fleet, customer, or location. Manage your logical hierarchies via both user interface and REST services.

View Product Genealogy and Assets with Country of Origin or Project and Task Information

View country of origin or project and task for lots and serials in product genealogy, including on-hand inventory and transaction history. You can also view project and task for an asset.

Manage Maintenance Work Orders

Schedule maintenance work orders in Oracle Cloud Production Scheduling to align them to shop floor maintenance strategy.
