Automatic Notification Of Late Inspections and Repairs (top)
Overview:
To ensure your important orders get prompt attention, you can specify 2 different Risks and 2 different Priorities, with their
corresponding "lapse" time (the amount of time within which you expect the work to be completed).
Note: All time lapses are in hours: common usage 48 hours or 720 hours (30 days)
This feature is User defined which allows you to turn it on or off for each individual user.
The data will appear upon a new login, on the user's 1st screen.
Miscellaneous:
In the user file you can also define:
Show your work orders past estimated completion date on login
Show All WO's past 5+ estimated completion date on Login
Process Flow:
- To define Automatic Late Notification parameters:
- Path: Look Up Tables > Setup >
- On the Setup 1 Tab - Enter values in the Risk and/or Priority fields along with the Time Lapse values.
Examples:
The following would define - If a work order has the Risk of A, notify me after 1 hour on my log in screen
The following would define - If a work order has the Priority of 1, notify me after 2 hours on my log in screen
Priority 1 |
1 |
Time Lapse #1 |

Blank Records In Data File (top)
Overview:
To allow equipment or areas with no assigned Contract, Employee, Part, or Vendor to appear on reports, One "blank" record is necessary in each of the following data files:
- Contracts
- Employees
- Equipment
- Parts
- Service Code
- Vendor
In addition, other files may need a blank record
- Facility (Note: not all sites need a blank record in the facility file)

Revised: 11/19/2010
Blanket Work Orders (top)
Path:
- New WO in the quick links section
- Or use a work order that has been previously created
Overview:
When the 'Blanket Order' field (in the work order) is defined as '1', the work order is designated as a 'Blanket Work Order'.
A blanket work order is one that stays "open" indefinitely; you clear the monthly time and costs associated with the order
monthly. This saves you the time of re-opening a new work order each month, and allows you to track items with one easy to remember work
order number. Blanket orders can be used both for repairs and inspections.
If the completion of a repair will extend over several months and you wish to bill for the work completed each month, enter a 1 in this field. An example would be blanket repairs or rounds. You may also wish to add a project and assign that project number to this repair order to keep track of the total cost of this work.
At the end of the month, you will run "Monthly work report" and completed work from this repair will show up. Then run selection "Clear monthly billings" on the Utility menu, to zero out the service time and dollar fields. Then when the new month starts, the service time and dollar amounts will not be double billed.
A blanket order is really about billing. If you don't care about billing, then you don't need to be concerned with this. You can just keep the work order open indefinitely until the job is complete.
Menu Options Available:
- "Clear monthly billings" on the Utility menu
Miscellaneous:
- See "Clear Monthly Billings" in this manual.
Process Flow:
- Create a new work order --or-- use a current work order that has been designated to be used as a Blanket Work Order.
- Via 'Repair' quick link at the top of the screen, enter the order number > Click Find > Click the Plus Edit > In the Repair/Inspection orders screen define the "Blanket Order" field as 1.

Browse / Locate (top)
*This section is being revised for changes made to the software.*
Browse/Locate
Choosing the Find button brings forward the Browse/Locate window which allows you to browse and locate records in the database that meet specific criteria. The results will be displayed in a table mode (rows and columns).
Find
To view all records, simply click the Find button. To specify criteria for viewing see "Specify criteria", below.
Count
To find out how many records are in the database, the number will appear at the top of the screen once Find is clicked.
Quit
To exit a function - Click Black Menu in the Quick links section.
To close a window - Click the Red X in the upper right hand corner of the screen
To exit the program - Click Logout in the Quick links section.
Ordered By
To specify the order you would like the records displayed in the Select window, choose a field from the Ordered By drop-down
Specify report criteria
This option allows you to specify criteria for record viewing / selection.
i.e., view only records with the TRADE = BIOMED, or EMPLOYEE = JOHN.
Constructing criteria:
1. Choose a field from the lists shown.
If there are no fields shown and only keyword, you may leave the box empty and click find to view all records or put in a key word to get only those records containing the characters you entered.
Otherwise, in the specified fields ,to narrow the search, input a starting range and ending range.
2. Certain ranges contain drop-down lists with the records from that specific table and others have a starting and ending range box for
you to fill in. Both ranges must be filled in if you want to narrow the search for that field.
Example:
(you want to get all records in the engineering department ("ENG")
Set the starting range for Department to "ENG(Engineering)" and ending range to "ENG(Engineering "
Example:
(you want the records with Risk 5 and down (skipping records with Risk 1 - 4))
set (actually type in) the starting range for Risk to "5" and the ending range to "___".
Note: by putting underscores in the ending range, it will go to the last record of the end of the table.
3. For date criteria, use MM/DD/YY format.
Example:
December 15, 1995 would be entered as 12/15/95.
4. Some searches have a 2nd page that contains more fields but are less
frequently used.
Browse Selected Fields
If desired to view a list of certain fields from a table, See Display Data in the help manual or once you have set your criteria and clicked find, up at the top is a link to the excel file. This file contains a list of more fields than shown on the browse screen. You may find what you are looking for by playing around with the excel file.
Deleting Expressions
To delete or reset the ranges, choose the Reset button.
Create New Search Criteria
Press Reset to reset the expression list and start anew.
Choose Menu or click Back to exit the page.
Example and notes:
If you select criteria, choose the Record# selection in the Order by list. Your search will be much faster.
Say you have 20,000 equipment records and you want to see all the class='DEFI' for manufacturer='PHYCON'. Under the criteria, search fields for: class='DEFI' and manufacturer='PHYCON' for both starting and ending range
The fastest way to see the data (about 40 seconds roughly) is to specify both criteria and have the order set to record #. This however will not display your data in any particular order but since there is only one class and one manufacturer this should be fine.
The next fastest way is to specify the manufacturer only, and order by class (which also does control#). Before the data finally comes up, there
will be 2 pauses. After the first pause you will see a blank table and a message like 1000 records in 48 seconds. The second pause will take 2-10 times longer before the table is filled. Now page down to the class you want.
The slowest way is to specify both criteria and order by class.

Path:
Look up Tables > Classification
*18 or *C
Overview:
ANTECEDENTS AND CONSEQUENT
Before adding a new area, Area Classification must be entered.
Trades and fixtures must be entered before area classes.
WHAT ARE AREA CLASSES?
Area classes are types of areas inside or outside the hospital.
Examples of area classes are:
INSIDE
Hallways
Nurses stations
Intensive care units
Patient rooms
Floor
Building
OUTSIDE
Parking lots
Lawns
Patios
Patient rooms could be broken into several more descriptive area classes such as "Patient room, private", "Patient room, semi-private", "Patient room, ward", "Patient room, isolation", etc.. (Each specific room would be an area.)
WHEN AN AREA CLASS SHOULD BE ADDED
- To keep a separate record of work completed for that class or if you want areas grouped or inspected similarly.
- If the inspection or preventive maintenance checks are different. An inspection for a break room is probably different than an inspection for a patient room.
- The main determinant is that the class should accurately describe the area.
SETTING UP WITH NON-SPECIFIC AREAS
Areas do not have to be more specific than area classes. To set up non-specific areas, enter the same key for both the area class and area.
Miscellaneous
- All systems will have a class with the name of 'DEPARTMENT' or 'A', with the Type definition of 2=area. Please do not delete this file since it is necessary to make Areas appear.
- A trade 'MUST' be entered for an inspection to be created!
- See "Inspection Procedures" for more information on procedures and inspection intervals.
- See "Scheduling Overview" for more information on scheduling work.
- See Inactivate (Delete)/Activate (Recall) a record for details on inactivation / deletion of a class.
Field Descriptions:
AREA CLASS - At least the first three letters must be the same as the general class description.
Three letters of the general description followed by three letters to separate this class from similar classes is the suggested method. (i.e. "ROOPAT" = ROOM, PATIENT). It is necessary for sorting and searching to use a 12 letter key. For one word names drop the extra letters (e.g. "HALLWA").
Later, when someone does not know the key, they may enter the first two or three letters and a list of choices beginning with those letters will display on the screen. (i.e. Entering 'RO' may display a list including 'ROOPAT' (Room, Patient), 'ROOPRI' (Room, Private), etc.)
Use one common system for ALL key entries.
See 'Classifications/Types - Equipment' section below for balance of Field Definitions.

Classifications - Equipment (top)
Path:
Look up Tables > Classification
*18 or *C
Overview:
The CLASS is the definition and specifications for one type of equipment or area. (For areas classes, see "Classifications - Areas".)
Equipment classes might be air conditioners, beds, beds - type 2, exhaust fan, monitor, IV Pump, etc. With an accurate class file, it will be easy to add pieces of Equipment by entering their class, location, and the specifics of their purchase. It will also be easy when using the system to work with one class of equipment or area at a time.
USES OF CLASSES
Classes are used to group similar types of equipment, fixtures or areas for reporting and scheduling purposes. To include only the parking lot
lights in a system, a separate fixture class (i.e. "LIGLOT") would be required. This class could have the same attributes as the regular light class.
To include all the parking lots into a system, a separate area class (i.e. "PARLOT") would be required.
WHEN A SEPARATE CLASS SHOULD BE ADDED
- To keep a record for any division of items as a group. Only a record of how much work is done on beds in general may be required, or more
specific records on specific types of beds.
Two types of beds may be from different manufacturers and require separate records to compare performance.
- If the inspection or preventive checks are different. Perhaps two types of beds require different checks.
- The main determinant is that the class should accurately describe the equipment, or area in that class.
Flags And/Or Security Settings:
F101 - update risk, maint#, class_type, med.eqp_type, high risk, utility system in work order & service history if changed in Class file
Miscellaneous:
- A trade 'MUST' be entered for an inspection to be created!

Field Descriptions:
---------------------------------------- Page 1 ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
CLASS KEY - A key code of 1 to 12 letters to represent this type of class
Use a standard method for all keys. A maximum of 6 characters is recommended.
We suggest using the first three letters of the equipment type with the first three letters of a further description (i.e. FANEXH = Fan, Exhaust; SWILIG = Switch, Light). Items with similar names will be more difficult. Use three last letters that best define the difference between this and similar equipment. (i.e. MOTELE = Motor, Electric; MOTGAS = Motor, Gas). Whatever format you decide to use, be consistent.
ECRI#- 12 characters. (Emergency Care Research Institute) If unknown skip.
DESCRIPTION - Enter the description of the equipment, fixture or area class. Forty (40) characters are available.
If you entered the Key as equipment type, then further definition you want to match the description by entering the same way.
Example Descriptions: 'MOTOR, ELECTRIC', 'MOTOR, GAS'
MODELS - Enter Equipment Models separated by commas. A model file may be used as well.
SYSTEM - Select the appropriate system from the drop down menu. The type of system this equipment class belongs to.
Most equipment classes will not belong to a system. However, individual equipment may be assigned to a system as it is entered. The system must already exist in the system file.

Overview:
The closing and post option is used for editing and posting only.
When using this option the Post push-button will display for users with the Closing Access level of 5 (post all orders) or 6 (post your orders).
See Phone Closings and Post for Phone specific information.
What is the difference between closing and posting?
The closing programs allow for more than one person to add & close work orders at the same time. When you close, the information entered on this screen is stored in a file. When you post, the data is stored to the database.
Why is closing separate from posting?
Closing is done separate from posting to give management the ability to review data prior to being posted to the database. This ensures data integrity. Once a record is posted the data cannot be corrected. You must use the unclose option.
When should I Post?
At the end of the day (or any time), this data must be "posted" to the database. This should be done about once a day. "Posting" is a disk intensive operation and we recommend that no additional closings should be done while posting.
How do I verify a close order is posted?
Go to the 'Closing And Post' option; Select the Posted radio button; Click Find; View the status field, “P” means posted.
Flags and Security Settings:
In the setup file there is the setup flag F028 - Post when saving record. When active, the system will automatically post all closings.
When the Auto Post - F028 setup flag is unchecked (off), Users with the following privileges defined in the User File are allowed to:
- Access 5: The system will automatically post the users closings, in addition user has the ability to posts other users
closings by displaying the 'Post' push-button in the 'Closing And Post' option. Wherever the post push-button appears,
the system will post all records. User cannot post individual closings.

Contract (top)
Path:
a. Look up Tables > Contract
b. New Record > Contract
Overview:
Service contracts are entered only AFTER THE EQUIPMENT HAS BEEN ENTERED.
When you enter a repair and the equipment is under contract, the contract information and notes appear on the Alert Screen.
SPECIAL INFORMATION ABOUT CONTRACTS:
- TWO CONTRACTS ON THE SAME PIECE OF EQUIPMENT - If there are two contracts on the same piece of equipment, enter the control # on the contract of most significance. Enter information about the other contract in notes.
- CLOSING WORK ORDERS FOR EQUIPMENT UNDER CONTRACT - Use the regular closing programs. Costs can be distributed in various ways. In general however, the contract type and order type play an important role.
- DISTRIBUTING/BILLING THE COSTS OF CONTRACTS - It is assumed that the contract cost has been distributed to the appropriate cost center and equipment. In the future see Utilities for a program to do this. (UPCNTEQP.PRG)
YTD=year to date
- CONTRACT file - The contract file is ALWAYS updated. This means that all work done by the contract vendor updates the vendor figures. Work done by other vendors and employees updates the employee figures.
Travel time is updated when using service code 2008 for closing work orders. It is assumed that only the vendor with the contract will charge
travel time. The labor $ of the work order is the time put on the closing screen multiplied by the travel rate from the contract.
All material charges (inspection & repair) are grouped together.
- VENDOR, SYSTEM, TRADE files - The vendor & system files YTD figures will ALWAYS be updated. These files have labor, material & time.
Determining factors for COST CENTER & EQUIPMENT files.
Order type (1&2 inspections; all others repairs)
Contract type (1=service & insp., 2=service, 3=inspt)
- COST CENTER file - The cost center YTD figures are not usually updated.
Example#1
The contract vendor does repair work, the contract covers repairs, so YTD figures are not adjusted.
Example#2
The contract vendor does repair work, the contract covers inspections only (type 3). YTD is
updated.
Example#3
A vendor (not contract vendor) does any type of work. YTD is updated.
- EQUIPMENT file - The equipment file has more YTD and lifetime figures as well as no charge figures.
Some field is ALWAYS updated.
If the repair or inspection is covered under contract, the charges go to the NO CHARGE figures. It is assumed that you distributed contract costs using the UPCNTEQP.PRG utility program which update VENDOR figures.
- CONTRACT EQUIPMENT VALUE - Equipment value (or the total of all equipment cost numbers) is updated by the re-total units program/utilities pull down. This value is not updated when entering new equipment. The contract cost distribution program (UPCNTEQP.PRG) also updates this.
Miscellaneous:
- The number of calls and units are updated by mPro3.
Process Flow:
- To add a new Contract: New Record > Select Contract from the Drop Down menu and click Continue > Enter the required fields > Click Save.
- To modify a Current Contract: Look up Tables > Contract > Enter Key and click Find > Click +/edit next to the appropriate entry > Make any modifications necessary > Click Save.
- To add Equipment to a Contract via Equipment:
- Go to the Equipment 'Quick Link' enter the control number > Click Find > Click +/edit >
- Select the Contract from the Contact Drop down (Located in the Specifications section of the Equipment file >
- Enter the Contract Cost field - Portion of the service contract cost for this piece of equipment.
Note: See Equipment section of this manual for further field definitions
- To add Equipment to a Contract via Contracts Screen:
- See the 'Add Equipment' or 'Add or Remove Equipment with Monthly History' in Field Description' sections below.
- Contract 'A' has expired, Contract 'B' has changed, the site wants to track the totals of each contract.
- A new contract would be best. This keeps the totals for the expired contract intact.
- However, you may copy the contract $ and # of calls into the notes and then clear them out.
This way you don't have to add a new contract and update all the equipment.
- Charges Example:
- Create a contract using the Contract Type of 'Service and Inspection'
- Close a work order for that Contract with that Vendor - Enter time labor and material
--------------------------------
- Work Order: Labor and Material will appear in the 'No Charge' row. Time is currently not recorded.
- Service History: Time, Labor and Material will appear.
- Contract: Charges section of screen will be updated

Cycle Weeks And Monthly PM's (top)
Overview:
Cycle weeks are important since they determine when the interval (cycle) is to begin.
Example:
If an inspection is to occur once a year cycling in January (Week 3), the inspection will occur in Jan 2009, 2010, 2011 etc.
---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
Please avoid using cycle week 1 for monthly PM's as the system may generate the 'Monthly PM' twice in one month.
Week and month guidelines are provided on the Equipment and Area screen, scheduling section.
Example:
In the year 2004 week 22 starts on may 30th, but you should date the pm's June 1st
Week 35 starts august 29th but you should date the pm's Sept 1st.
Note:
In 2004 week 1 started Sunday Jan 4th. 2005 is easier Jan 2nd starts week 1.
----------------------------------------
Another Example:
In the year 2009 January 1st occurred on a Thursday
Some clients wanted week 1 to be December 28, 2008 through January 3, 2009. Other clients wanted week 1 to be January 4, 2009 through January 10, 2009.
It is the clients call on what they want to be considered week 1. Whatever you decide make sure to document this on a calendar to aid when creating PM's.
---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
For reporting purposes mPro3 calculates on a 4,4,5 week base to make a quarter.

Downtime/Total Open Time (top)
Downtime is computed for equipment repair work orders only by the closing programs.
Downtime is calculated based on the following:
1. There must be a model # on the repair work order. This is to cut down on generic equipment work orders.
2. The service code must be a repair service code (less than 1100 or greater than 2100 or 481=loaner) as the first service code.
3. The work order must be completed
The downtime is kept in hours and is on the second window of Repair/Inspection orders listed as Total open time.
You may also see the field TOTAL HOURS OPEN in the WORKORD database. The downtime appears on the Repair Quality Assurance Report under the Accountability pull down.
The closing programs update TOTAL HOURS OPEN only if TOTAL HOURS OPEN=0 and only for code 489 and complete order.

This report includes a wealth of information. When you close a work order, the first service code used determines which category the work order falls into. However project orders are counted as often as they are closed and only fall into the project line regardless of service codes.
"CHARGED TIME" - includes service time for all closing statements. Therefore it is possible to have a "0" in the "TOTAL WO'S" column and have a number in the "CHARGED TIME" column.
"% OF TIME" - will not add up to exactly 100% due to rounding of individual figures.
"STANDARD TIME" - For inspections, the standard time is from the Inspection procedure file.
For repairs, the time comes from the projected time. If none exists, the service time is used.
"S/A" - standard time divided by actual (charged) time.
All average columns are based on the number of months of data, inclusive of the current month.
QA Categories and generally service code ranges the QA code corresponds to.

QA 9 - No Problem Found 1200-1249
QA 10 - Non-Productive Time 1427, 1490-1499 (This report looks at QA category 10 to determine if the time is Non-Productive)
QA 11 - Use Error 1100's
QA 12 - Projects wo type=4
QA 13 - Staff / Clinical Support 1300's
QA 14 - Technical Support 1500-1599
QA 15 - Training / Education 1405, 1451-1469
QA 16 - Vendor Related Service 2000-2099
Hours per inspection or hours per repair may not be exact. If two people have done work on the inspection or repair, only one of them will get credit for having completed a repair or inspection. Both people will get their correct time charged. If we counted the inspection twice because 2 people did work on it, then the number of inspections would be inflated.
Inspections completed is a percentage based on the number completed plus the number failed.
There is no relationship to inspections that were not closed. That analysis is done by the monthly report.
ACCOUNTABILITY DOES ANALYSIS ON CLOSED REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS ONLY.
If you have changed an employee's trade, there will be one report for each trade.
Spreadsheets are always created.
The first has all QA categories. The 2nd combines into the equipment repair category
QA 1=Admin, Technical Support, Clinical Support, Use Error, No Problem Found, Vendor Related
Service and Hazard Orders.
Miscellaneous:
If you see asterisks in the summary sections this may be because:
We only keep track of monthly hours worked and paid. This is why some #'s may have *** in them. We don't have the data to calculate.
We only do averages for a month so if you run less than a month we don't try to average that out.

Employee Statistics (top)
Path:
Special Reports > Employee Statistics
Overview:
The Employee Statistics Report provides Charged Hours, Work Hours and Work Order statistics for a given month. This report is usually used to see where an employee has spent their time in a given month.
In addition a "Create 30 Day Excel' report is available.
This can be used to verify if technicians are charging enough time on a daily basis
The Excel Report is formatted with 5 lines per employee with a total of 31 columns (1 column for each day).
The lines are:
- PM hours
- Repair hours
- Total hours
- Standard hours (7.5 hours per day)
- Percent (%) (Total Hours divided by Standard Hours = Percent )
Miscellaneous:
If the first row, Employee column, Employee is blank - this line refers to Vendor Orders.
The report will not show an employee UNTIL at least 1 work order is closed and service history is created.
- Inspection QA categories: 4=failed, 6=inspections, 7=incomplete, 8=incoming
- Repairs are ALL other QA categories.
- This report WILL NOT match other reports.
- If a order is opened up in a previous month and closed this month, it's counted as opened this month.
- Employee Statistics looks at the current month COMPLETED and FIRST employee closed on the work order.
- Report data comes from the service history, work order, and employee hours files.
Revised: 09/22/2014
Employee Training History (top)
1) In the class file, add a classification called TRAIN. It doesn't need any other parameters filled in.
2) In the equipment file, add each employee as a control number. You can use the employees social security number or their employee number or employee key for the control number (Pick one method and use it consistently). Set the class as TRAIN. It doesn't need any other parameters filled in.
Using the ADD & CLOSE feature, add a work order for each item for which the employee is trained/qualified, using the control number you entered in step 2 for the control # field. Fill in whatever other fields you think you need.
When closing, use the qa category 15 (Training/Education) and the appropriate training service code(s). Use the "notes" box to specify exactly what training course was taken. If you want, you can even assign specific service codes* for specific training classes.
Reporting
Use the service history list to see all training courses for your employees. To get a report for a specific employee, use "specify
report criteria"; in the "field names" section, choose CLASS; for the operator, use "="; in the "value"
section, enter the employees key.
If you have any suggestions or improvements on these procedures, please call.
*To get a list of which employees have taken which course, this is a requirement. Then you can use the service history report and just ask
for that specific service code.
Revised: 01/01/1996
Entering Ranges (top)
A starting Key of "A" will process all items beginning with "A" and continue until the ending Key.
An ending key of "D" would only process the items up to "D", but WOULD NOT INCLUDE "DA...." because that is after "D" alphabetically. Use an ending Key of "DZZZZZ" to include all items that have a Key beginning with "D".
To process only the items for a single Key, enter the Key as starting and ending. (If you enter "EMERGE" in starting and ending
key for cost center, and press Enter, ALL work orders for the "EMERGE" cost center will be processed.)
For numeric entries use the lowest number desired, or "1" (or blank) to print everything, for the beginning key.
For the ending numeric key use the highest number desired or at least as many nines as your highest key would have digits. (i.e. "999999" if your highest numbers have six digits.)
Numbers with decimal (356.32), numbers with dashes (42-98476), and numbers combined with letters are all treated as alphanumeric entry. Be careful to specify the correct range.
LOWER CASE LETTERS should not appear in your Keys as they will not alphabetize with upper case letters, however, mPro3 will correct the casing and will not make searches and listings inaccurate. The ordering of upper and lower casing is an effect of ASCII, the accepted order of characters.
All key fields are automatically set to uppercase regardless of what you enter.

Equipment (top)
Path:
a. Equip on the Quick Link, header menu (*28)
b. Equipment > Equipment (*28)
c. Equipment > Add Equipment (*251)
d. New Record > Equipment (Used to create a new record)
Overview:
Prior to entering equipment, the following files must be entered: Classifications, Vendor/Manufacturers, Cost Centers, and Areas.
Equipment is entered before contracts and work orders.
Systems and Facilities can be entered before the equipment, but are not required. (Usually, systems are set up after
the program has been running for awhile.)
WHY CREATE AN EQUIPMENT RECORD?
Any piece of equipment that requires an individual record and service history should be entered into the equipment file.
ENTERING EQUIPMENT AS IT COMES DUE
If an engineering department is under pressure to bring the system up quickly, equipment due for inspection or service may be entered
first. This would only require the previous entry of Classifications, Vendors, Cost Centers, and Areas.
SEARCHING THE EQUIPMENT FILE
When traversing the equipment file, the user may switch the order the records are displayed in.
When you first enter the equipment window, select the order by drop-down list to change the order if desired.
The data records will display within the search criteria by control #.
Example: You would like to see the records by manufacturer. Let's say that AA Plumbing is the first manufacturer.
The control#'s will be in order until the next manufacturer is displayed.
You may select what fields to display by clicking the 'Field List' dropdown. These fields will be set as a default for further searches. The 'Find' key must be pressed for system to set new default list.
Fields such as serial number or control number can be used to find one piece of equipment. The other fields can be used
to look at all the equipment with the same vendor or in the same cost center, etc.. The matching item with the lowest control number will
display first.
Tabs
The tabs located at the top of the screen allow you to jump to specific data locations - sets.
GROUP EQUIPMENT RECORDS FOR EASY ENTRY
Equipment records should be sorted by class before being entered into the computer. (It may also help to sort them secondarily by cost center.)
THE FREE INDEX AND REFERENCE FIELDS
The free and reference fields have no assigned purpose. Their use can be decided by the user, but it is important to use a standard
form of entry in all records.
It is not necessary to use the free index or reference until a need becomes apparent. In fact, users who use these fields immediately are
often wanting to change their use after a period of time. It is suggested to wait.
The Free Index is an 12 character indexed field. It is included in listing and searching routines, so it is best to use it for
information that will need to be searched. Examples of using this index: Hospital asset numbers, condition (i.e. NEW = Check Warranty,
DEAD = Ready to replace, etc.), or shop.

Equipment Inspection Load (top)
Path:
Inspections > Scheduling & Load Reports > Equipment Inspection Load
Overview:
This report option allows the user to create three types of reports. These reports provide data to assist in scheduling employees, balancing work load, inspection check data and parts requirements.
Report types:
- Hours:
This report can be run for a future week to aid in scheduling employees. It also could be run for the entire year (monthly) as a tool for rescheduling (balance the work load over the year).
Note: If time is Not defined in the checks file, when running the 'Hours' - Report Type, the class/equipment does Not appear in the report.
- Missing Checks:
This report lists equipment that is scheduled but is missing inspection checks.
- Parts Requirements:
Lists parts requirements for future inspections. See 'Inspection Parts' section in this manual.
Note: Only Quarters 1 - 4 are allowed in Parts Requirement Report
For year
If other than the current year - enter the year.
Period:
The Period flag is necessary for "Hours" or "Parts Requirements" reports. It is not used with the Missing Checks report.
For Hours - Select 12 months or Quarter.
For Parts Requirement - Select appropriate Quarter.
- 12 months (January through December)
- Qtr 1 (January through March)
- Qtr 2 (April through June)
- Qtr 3 (July through September)
- Qtr 4 (October through December)
Miscellaneous:
- The 'Time' field in the checks file must be defined for the equipment to appear on this report, hence the title of the report 'Equipment Inspection Load'.
- If equipment is not scheduled, there is no load, OR it may be scheduled but if there is no time on the inspection check, it would not show up here, but would show up on the Equipment Inspection Interval report.
- For sites that want to track this and have several classes with nn pieces of equipment, we suggest that you put in at least 30 minutes on those procedures
---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
- The records found (when a report is created), are the number of Equipment that are scheduled - not all equipment is scheduled.
- This number will count equipment twice if it has multiple trades on it. In this way you can say Biomed inspects x # of equipment and Radiology inspects y # of equipment.
---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
- In the details of the report 'Total #' nnn Units - Some units are twice a year etc.
- This is the number of inspections, not units
---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
- On the line 'Grand total units nnnn' - Again, this is not units but # of Inspections.
---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
- Multi-year inspections are included on the report - verify 'Year Start' is defined in the equipment file.
Process Flow:
- Enter the class range.
- Enter the report type:
- Report type Hours - You can do by Quarter or by 12 months
- Report type Missing checks - produces the missing checks report
- Report type Parts Requirements - you can do by Quarter only
- For year - If other than the current year, enter year.
- Enter the period. (period is only necessary for "Hours" or "Parts Requirements" reports).
- Select from the 'Ordered by' drop down menu your desired sort.
- Determine and mark appropriately the 'With Page Breaks' and/or 'With Detail' check boxes.
- If desired, Select other data fields toward bottom of the screen
- Click the Create Report push-button.
Push-button/Check Box/Links:
WITH PAGE BREAKS - Check box - Creates the report with appropriate page breaks
WITH DETAIL - Check box - Provides detail to the control number level.
INCLUDE 5 YEARS (FOR 12 MONTH REPORT ONLY) IN EXCEL - Check box - Include 5 years of data.
SEND ME AN EMAIL WHEN REPORT COMPLETE - Check box - See below
- Used when the processing of retrieved data exceeds the servers time out settings.

Path:
Inspections > Reports > Equipment To Be Archived
*139
Overview:
'Archive' (or 'Delete' or 'Inactivate'). This report is generally run 3 months back.
If today is November, run the report for August.
The report shows items you have been trying to inspect i.e. closed with QA category 7 (incomplete inspection) and ANY service code, EXCEPT the following:
1701 (Equipment Not Available/In Use),
1706 (No Staff Available),
1708 (Out For Repair),
1709 (Not Located-No Archive)
Note:
To reverse this process ask MCS to run setarcback.
See Equipment To Be Archived (Inactivated) - Automatic Process for details on using service codes 1429(Repairs) 1649 (PMs).
Flags And/Or Security Settings:
- F034 if close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing
- In the closing show screen, there is a check box 'Have system set QA category based on Action Service code. If you use a service code of 1700 and the check box is checked, the system will automatically make the QA Category 7. To override this feature uncheck the check box.
Miscellaneous:
- The system will Not archive equipment under a current contract.
- When a piece of equipment is recalled (un-deleted) and an inspection is performed most users use Service codes, 1652-54 out-of cycle pm completed. Prior to running the 'Inspections Reactivated' option, Enter "REACT" in the free index and update the cycle weeks manually in the equipment file.
Process Flow:
- Close an “Inspection” with QA category 7 and use the Service code of '1700 (Equipment not Located)
- Run the Equipment to Be Archived report. The Control with associated Work Order number will appear on the report.
- When/If you're ready to Archive -- Check the 'Archive Now' check box to inactivate (delete/archive) the equipment. Click the Create Report push-button.
You have to do this a couple of times for the report to go back to zero.
The equipment on the report will be:
- de-scheduled (cycle week changed to zero)
- The cost center and department will remain the same.
- mPro3 will make an entry in the service history
- The system inactivates the record.

Equipment To Be Archived (Inactivated) - Automatic Process (top)
Path:
Close order with code 1429 - Repairs (Removed From Inventory/QA=1) or 1649 - PMs (Archive/QA=6), with setup flag F095 active.
Overview:
Archive was a term used in mPro3 for windows, we use the term inactivate (deleted) in mPro3 online.
With the setup flag F095 checked, by closing an order with code 1429 - Repairs (Removed From Inventory/QA=1) or 1649 - PMs (Archive/QA=6) the system will automatically update the equipment file and do the following:
- delete/inactivate the equipment
- change department to ARC (leaves cost center alone)
Note: Some systems are setup to where the department is not modified. Ask your system admin. or call Mayer Computer Services.
- set cycle weeks to 0
- set next inspection to blank
- set updated to today's date
- This process does NOT close/inactivate any open work orders.
Flags and Security Settings:
F095 - auto archive eqp when closing with code 1429 (Removed From Inventory)/1649 (Archive)
Miscellaneous:
- Be aware of the associated QA category when using these service codes.
For Repairs use Code 1429 (Removed From Inventory/QA=1)
For PM's use Code 1649 (Archive/QA=6)
The code must be in the first place 'Action' box on the closing screen.
- One site follows this process:
Use 1649 for a PM when the technician removes the item from inventory instead of doing the PM.
If the technician were to use a 1428 (Admin Code/QA=1), the system will not count the work order as a completed PM on the Safety Report.
In this scenario the code 1649 can changed to read 'Removed from inventory during PM' so it clearer to the user. We can assist with changing service code wording.
- Refer to your own internal operating procedures:
Process Flow:
setup flag F095 needs to be checked (active)
Close or inactivate any open work orders attached to the control number or area (for area work orders).
Example 1:
- Close a work order as usual and use the Service code of 1429 (Removed From Inventory/QA=1) or 1649 (Archive/QA=6)
- Updates to the equipment file will automatically occur.
Example 2:
- Do an Add & Close with the code 1429. On the 'Show Screen', toward the bottom there are boxes for multiple Equipment control numbers or Area keys. > Click save (to save the 1st record) then click process to save the multiple records.
- Updates to the equipment file will automatically occur.

Equipment With Clinical Alarms (top)
Here are a few options for identifying equipment with clinical alarms.
In the class file:
-----------transfers to -----------------
Field to use equipment work order service history indexed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
system Y Y N Y
class type (clstype) Y Y Y Y
M1, M2 or any M field Y N N N
The system field translates. For example, define the key CL in the system file for Contains Clinical Alarm. That verbiage would appear on some reports.
Even though the system field is not in the service history it does relate back to the work order file so you can always report on it.
The class type field does not translate and may be incorrectly entered, though this is doubtful. On the plus side it's in all the files and indexed.
The M1, M2 fields let you can define the prompt "Clinical Alarm" in the class and then that's it. It will appear on the work orders. The downside is it's not indexed but you can still run reports and queries though they would be slower.

Excel (top)
Overview:
Most reports and files automatically send data to an excel file.
When saving an Excel over 16k rows, wait a minute to ensure data has loaded to the buffer.
For those reports that do not have an excel link (such as Department Summary), you may be allowed to highlight the columns and paste them
into a spreadsheet from the displayed report. Excel should be able to put them in separate columns automatically, allowing you to do any
type of graphs or projects that you need.

Overview:
ANTECEDENTS AND CONSEQUENT
Facility records are not necessary to use the system, but they are easy to add and have no complex relation to the system. If the Facility file is
used, it can be set up at any time prior to entering equipment, areas, or projects. No previous entries are required to enter Facilities.
WHY USE THE Facility FILE?
"Facility" is a reference field in the equipment, area, work order, and project files.
For hospitals with multiple facilities.
You will be able to run reports based on this as well as keep work orders and equipment separated.
No costs or totals are maintained in the Facility file but any number of reports may be run.
COLLECTING Facility DATA
The following information will be needed to enter Facilities:
1. Facility key ______________
2. Facility name ____________________________
Field Descriptions:
Facility KEY - 12 characters available; The common name or number for this Facility is the best entry. Do not use punctuation.
NAME - 30 characters are available to describe the Facility. The key entry could be repeated here or the location or purpose could be described.
TEAM - 12 Character, Free Form field. A group of individuals that work together.
Address information may be entered.

Glossary (top)
ALPHANUMERIC - An order which puts items in order by ASCII code. This is basically numbers first and then characters. These items are in alphanumeric order: {1, 3, 662, 1075, 1233D, 4SS, AARD, BAD, etc.} Notice that numbers with letters are treated as characters, where the first character read determines the order. Alphanumeric entries are left justified.
ANTECEDENT - A process that comes before another process.
AREA CLASS FILE - General types of areas.
AREA FILE - Specific rooms and locations.
AUTOPROMPT - When you enter data or a work order, you will need to enter the information such as Vendor or Trade by using the key for the desired entry. Auto prompt is a means of finding the key if you don't remember it. It is explained in the data entry section.
BILLING BY MONTH - The work order file has an option to bill the accumulated costs on a work order each month. Otherwise, the total cost is billed when the work order is complete or as it is closed.
BUILDING FILE - Physical description of hospital
CHARGE RATES - In the trade and employee files, up to 3 rates can be entered to be charged against cost centers or as an account of expenditures. Options for this field are listed in the trade file chapter.
CHECK - A specific step involved on an inspection of a particular class of equipment or area.
CHECK LIST - A page provided for each data file which lists all the information required for entry of a record. The lists contains a blank space to write down the entries. These can be copied to make data collection easier.
CLASS - A name that describes a group or type of equipment or area with the same Inspection procedures and other information. Each piece of equipment (or area) entered into the system is entered as a class rather than a description. The operator selects the key for the correct class.
CLASSIFICATION - see CLASS.
CLEARING YEAR-TO-DATE TOTALS - Many of the data files maintain year-to-date costs of materials and labor. These figures need to be cleared (reset to zero) at the end of the fiscal year, after all work has been closed and the final monthly report run.
CLEARING WORK ORDERS - Purging the work order file of all work orders that have been closed 60 days.
CONSEQUENT - A process that comes after another process.
CONTRACTS - Service performed by outside vendors under contract is treated differently by the system.
CONTROL# - Equipment or Area tag#.
COST CENTER FILE - Records of departments and cost centers.
COST CENTER REPORT - The cost center report is a summary of all work orders closed in the reported month. It should be run at the end of the month after closings have been completed or within the first few days of the following month before new closings are made.
CLOSING WORK ORDERS - Entering information about a completed or partially completed work order. Closing a Work Order adds the information to the equipment history, and updates totals in all files related to that item. The work order will remain in the work order file for 60 days after the last closing. Work Orders closed more than 60 days will be deleted when you run "28. Clear Order file". This allows a reasonable amount of time to close more work to the work order. If it is going to be open longer, mark the work order for billing by month.
CONTRACT FILE - Specific outside arrangements.
CTRL+ALT+DEL - A method of rebooting (booting) by simultaneously pressing the combination of keys, Ctrl + Alt + Del.
CURSOR - The little light on your screen that indicates the prompt you are entering. See also PROMPT.
DATA FILE - A database or file that contains records, for example the equipment file contains records that hold information about various equipment.
DEFAULT - When answering any prompt, the answer that is used when you only press Enter. Usually the default answer will be displayed on the screen after Enter is pressed. In the equipment and area, This is often used to repeat the same answer as the previous item.
DELETE MODE - Used in the data and work order files to delete records. It is important to verify that a record is not in use before deleting it. For example, an equipment record should not be deleted if there are any work orders for the item in the work order file.
DISK DRIVE - A device on which the programs and data are stored.
DRAWING REFERENCE NUMBER - If schematics or diagrams are kept for an area or piece of equipment, the location of those materials can be stored in this field.
EQUIPMENT AND FIXTURE CLASS FILE - Types of equipment and fixtures. See also CLASS.
EMPLOYEE FILE - Personnel record.
ENTER - written this way it means to press the "Enter" key. This will be a "Return" key on PC/XT style keyboards. Sometimes "Enter" and "Return" are used interchangeably in this manual.
ESC - The escape key. Depending on the application, the key may be pressed at any time to get out of any function.
ESTIMATED LIFE - The number of months an item is expected to be useful. This field is in the equipment class file.
EXERCISING THE DATAWAND BATTERY - It is necessary to run a rechargeable battery all the way down and then recharge it. This does not need to be done every time, but should be done a few times each month to extend the batteries life and ability to store a charge.
EXTENSION - Used to refer to a telephone extension.
FIELDS - In a file, records are organized in rows and columns. A field is a synonym for a column that contains a value for a record, or a single item of information in a row. Example: In the Equipment file, some fields are: control#, model#, serial #.
FILE - A group of records. The information may be the same as would be stored in a physical file, yet the information in a computer file is not necessarily kept in order. Indexes are used to find the information by record numbers.
FIRE CLASS - The hospital's standard fire codes. This field occurs in a few files.
FLOORS - Standard names should be given to each floor so that they may be used by the program.
FREE INDEX - An indexed field to be used for any purpose you like. The index will allow an alphabetical or numeric sort on this field.
INDEX - A file containing the SORTED version of a file. It is sorted on one field and indicates the alphanumeric order of records containing that field. See also ORDER DATA BY.
Indexing a field allows the system to search the files very rapidly.
An index does not actually put all the records in order. It creates an ordered list of the indexed field with a note of which record is represented. This permits the system to keep only one copy of each file, even if the file is indexed on ten different fields.
INQUIRE MODE - Used in the data and work order files to view records. If the inquire mode is chosen, the cursor will stop at the first field, prompting for the desired record. Some files will let you Inquire on other fields. For example, in the Equipment file records can be located by any of nine fields.
ITEM - Used for areas and/or equipment. This definition is necessary for clarity within this manual. Many functions and statements apply to both.
JUSTIFIED - See RIGHT JUSTIFIED and LEFT JUSTIFIED.
KEY - A six (sometimes longer) character symbol or abbreviation that represents a record. Examples are "SURGER" to represent surgery or "HENDRI" to represent the employee record for James Hendrix. Using the key system, only this key can be used for this employee. Because there is one standard entry per employee, cost center, piece of equipment, etc., many potential errors and problems are avoided and entry time is saved.
It is important to use a standard method when creating Keys. Methods are suggested in the chapter for each data file.
In the equipment file, key also means control#. In the Repair/Inspection file, key also means order#.
LABOR RATES - The hourly labor rates to be used when calculating labor charges. Three levels are entered in the employee file and in the Trade file.
LEFT JUSTIFIED - Field variables that are stored in the left of a field. This usually applies to all non-numeric fields. Justification is significant when fields are compared or sorted. These entries are left justified:
1

Graphing (top)
Use
To use Excel to graph data do the following:
Example:
Let's say you just ran the monthly report. One of the last pages prints a list of all the cost centers/departments with various totals.
The monthly report creates a database table with these numbers.
Let's graph the repair labor and material.
Click on the excel link once the report has been completed. This will open up Microsoft Excel with all the records from the report.
Delete unnecessary columns: Click on the letter of the column, then Edit, Delete, Entire column. For our example, delete the MNUMKEY, MRT column, and all the columns to the right of MRM.
Create your graph: Click on Insert, Chart, and follow the Chart Wizard prompts. (Note: Step 4 of the chart wizard asks where to place the chart -you may want to choose "As new sheet". This will put the chart on a separate page and make formatting & printing easier.)
You then select the field you desire and what type of graph, etc.

Inactivate (Delete)/Activate (Recall) a record (top)
Path:
All major files in the show screen
Overview:
Archive was a term used in mPro3 for windows, we use the term inactivate (delete) in mPro3 online. mPro3 Online does not delete a record from the database it's inactivated.
Various types of files can be inactivated/activated i.e. Equipment, Class, Vendor, Work order etc.
This process is done in the record 'Show Screen' using the Delete or Recall push-button.
There are 3 ways to inactivate 'Equipment' record(s).
- In the show screen of the Equipment record - click the delete push-button.
- Equipment to be Archived (deleted) report - See section in this manual for details.
- Equipment To Be Archived - Automatic Process - using service codes - See section in this manual for details.
There are 2 ways to inactivate a work order record(s).
- In the show screen of the Repair file - click the delete push-button.
- Use the 'Remove or Assign Work Orders' option located under utilities - This menu allows inactivation of work orders by work order number range with QA category
There is one way to inactivate other records.
- In the show screen of the file - delete push-button.
Flags And/Or Security Settings:
User must have the privilege setting of 4 or above on the associated file to inactivate/reactivate a record. Modify these privileges in the User file.
Miscellaneous:
- CLASS FILE:
- If you delete a class, the system deletes all inspection checks associated with that class.
- If you un-delete the class, the system automatically un-deletes all checks associated with that class
- DELETE / INACTIVATE A CHECK:
- DO NOT DELETE ANY CHECKS! Deleting a check/procedure will cause problems when printing historical information.
- Be aware if you inactivate (delete) a check and need to print a past PM, the check portion will not print.
- When deleting a check verify it is not scheduled for areas or equipment that are attached to the checks class.
Example:
If you have 2 procedures a yearly and semi-annual for 1 trade and then decide you don't want the semi-annual anymore.

In addition if you add a Word/Excel or PDF attachment, you have the option to print.
PRINTING:
You can print checks (procedures) via these paths:
- Lists > Class Book > Create Report
- Lists > Inspection Checks Listing
BACKGROUND:
CLASS:
- A Class is required to link the Checks file to the Equipment / Area files where they are scheduled with a cycle week.
- An Inspection Procedure must be entered for each trade entered in the Classification file. This is for equipment and area
inspections.
TRADE:
- The trades entered into the CLASS file (displayed in the lower right corner of the screen) link to a corresponding check in the checks file.
- The first trade entered in the CLASS file will come up when adding a check.
DELETE / INACTIVATE A CHECK:
- DO NOT DELETE ANY CHECKS! Deleting a check/procedure will cause problems when printing historical information.
- Be aware if you inactivate (delete) a check and need to print a past PM, the check portion will not print.
- When deleting a check verify it is not scheduled for areas or equipment that are attached to the checks class.
Example:
If you have 2 procedures a yearly and semi-annual for 1 trade and then decide you don't want the semi-annual anymore.
Zero out the cycle week first for all applicable areas or equipment and then inactivate the check.
Miscellaneous:
NUMBER OF CHECKS WITH ASSOCIATED TRADES - CLASS/CHECKS FILES:
The system allows for 6 trades with 7 checks for each class.
The equipment screen displays 4 because of space limitations and the area file shows 3.

Inspection Reports (Worksheet) (top)
Path:
a. Inspections > Inspection Reports (*229 or *IR)
b. Inspections > Create Area Inspections > Inspection Reports Push-button
Overview:
There are two main purposes for this program:
First, it provides an aging sheet for inspections. This will let you find the oldest inspections in the system and find out why they were not closed. The job may have been shelved, it may be awaiting parts, or maybe it's complete, but the paperwork hasn't been closed. In any case the appropriate action needs to be taken. Closing statements can be used to record the progress in the status field of the work order.
The second purpose of this report is to provide a work sheet for tracking completed inspections or to do the inspections directly from the worksheet without printing individual inspection forms.
Note: The 'Trade' that appears on the PM Form/Reports is the Trade of the Employee assigned to the work order.
Process Flow:
Fill in the appropriate parameters in the fields provided.
- WITH PAGE BREAKS - Select when you wish the printed report to have page breaks.
- PRINT INSPECTION PROCEDURES AFTER REPORT - Select when you wish to have Inspection procedures printed after the report.
- USE INSPECTION TRADE INSTEAD OF EMPLOYEE TRADE - 1. On page 2 the Trade field will show Inspection Trade rather than Employee Trade. 2.
The report will display Inspection Trade.
- LIFE SUPPORT ONLY - Report only life support items. The function field has to have '10' that signifies Life Support.
- PRINT PARAMETERS - Print a page listing the parameter used to create report. (Helpful when you print or send a report so you know what
parameters were used to create it.
- MARK AS PRINTED - The system will mark the work order as printed
- PRINT COVER LETTER ON INSPECTIONS CLOSED REPORT (CLOSED OPTION ONLY; FOR 1 DEPARTMENT OR COST CENTER; AND MAKES A COPY)
- PRINT BAR CODE (ON INSPECTION WORKSHEET EQUIPMENT)(PARAMETER WILL NOT SAVE IN TEMPLATE)
- CREATE AND EMAIL REPORT FOR EACH DEPARTMENT OR COST CENTER; OPTIONAL GLOBAL COPY (INSPECTIONS CLOSED REPORT ONLY) - The system will automatically email in the background.
- WITH MODEL NOTES (INSPECTION WORKSHEET EQUIPMENT ONLY)- Model notes will appear on output.
- CREATE AND EMAIL REPORT FOR EACH EMPLOYEE (INSPECTION WORKSHEET EQUIPMENT REPORT ONLY)(REPORT TITLE USED FOR EMAIL SUBJECT) - The system will automatically email in the background.
Reports:
There are five report formats available:
1. Inspection Worksheet - This worksheet provides a list so user may do the inspections directly from the worksheet without printing individual inspection forms. This worksheet includes both areas and equipment.
2. Inspection Worksheet Equipment - This worksheet should only be used for equipment. This is a multi-line report providing more information.
3. Inspection Worksheet Landscape - This worksheet should only be used for equipment. This worksheet provides a list of equipment that has to be inspected. Make sure page setup is Landscape.
4. Inspection Report Landscape - This is a one-line report. Make sure page setup is Landscape.
5. Inspections Closed - This is a multi-line report that shows Service History (if any) for Closed inspections.
Items not included on Report:
Changing cost center, department, vendor, manufacturer, and/or classification keys on a piece of equipment will not change repair/inspection orders or service history.
Changing inspection intervals or trades in the classification file or changing the cycle week in the equipment file will cause the old inspection forms to omit inspection procedures if they are reprinted.
Note: Use Inspection
Worksheet to view all inspections including missing inspections from Inspection Worksheet Equipment or Inspection Worksheet Landscape.

Inspections (General Information) (top)
Overview:
Inspections can be created for equipment or areas and are usually created for a range of weeks that covers one month.
Inspections are created based on:
1. Inspection procedures - See the Inspection Procedures section of this document.
2. Week of greatest inspection in equipment or area file.
Inspections are created regardless if there is an open inspection out there for that same piece of equipment.
Warranty inspections are generated based on the date range selected. You can get multiple warranty inspections if you generate weekly inspections and request
warranties every week. Only request warranties the first week of the month if you generate weekly inspections.
Warnings:
- If you create inspections and get an error, do not create inspections again. This will cause system problems.
Contact Mayer Computer Services for assistance.
- When creating multiple batches of PMs, please wait for the batch to complete printing before clicking the 'Create Forms' push-button for the next batch.

Inspections Attempted (top)
Path:

Overview:
Generally run for a month, 3 months back.
Example: it is now May 1st. Run report for February.
All QA category 7 inspections appear on report.
If you have the flag F034 if close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing; On (Active) - in the setup file, the following happens:
- When there is an inspection that was never closed because the unit was unavailable, Close the inspection with QA category 7 and the appropriate service code. Do not put any time.
- The Inspections Attempted Report keys in on the QA Category 7 for the record to appear on the report.
- When the equipment is found, close the old inspection as 'Completed' using the appropriate Service Code and QA Category 6.
- Service history will show 2 entries showing the inspection was completed.
- When the final closing is complete (QA Category 6), the entry will no longer appear on the report.
Or ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you have the flag F034 if close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing; Off (Inactive) - in the setup file, the following happens:
- When you run into an inspection that was never closed and it was probably because the unit was unavailable, close the old inspection with QA category 7 and the appropriate service code with the last day of the month that the inspection was generated for.
- Then close out that old inspection as completed using whatever code you are using to close out the inspection you are currently doing (do not put in any time). Use today's date or whatever date you actually did the inspection on. This way the old inspection gets closed out and old reports will run properly. The service history will show 2 entries for different order numbers but the same date showing the inspection was completed. That's ok. All reporting will be correct.
Flags And/Or Security Settings:

Overview:
mPro3 is essentially compatible with any Windows, Android, or iOS device.
Achieving 100% cross-browser compatible Web applications is practically impossible and sometimes adjustments are required when a fresh new browser version appears. mPro3 is designed to be compatible with multiple browsers and platforms, despite their technological differences.
To ensure compatibility, we test our application on various browser versions and platform combinations.
Developers make every effort to resolve all issues. We document in our online manual and give solutions to issues that cannot be resolved within a particular browser/platform.
Notes: 04/05/2017
- Safari works best on the iPhones
- IE 10+ works best on windows phones
- iPad mini 2 with iOS 8, run the Mercury browser instead of Safari or Chrome
- IE should be 9 or greater; lower versions will work with 95% of capabilities (some dashboards and assisted search functions do not work)
- Firefox and IE10 ,11 seem to work well on all computers/notebooks/laptops
- There are many browsers for Android phones all seem to work

When you click on an Excel link in Internet Explorer and its opens, this file not really in Excel but an Internet Explorer version of the file.
If you email it, the recipient will see that it is improperly spaced.
- When you click on an Excel file in IE and want to email it,
- Save it in a folder.
- Then go to that folder
- Right click, Send to, Mail Recipient
- This is not true with HTML reports.
- You can force Internet Explorer to open the documents with the original application by changing the file type association in Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer).
- XP:
From the XP Windows Explorer menu (Not Internet Explorer) select Tools > Folder Options > File Types tab > Select XLS from the list > Click Advanced > Uncheck "Browse in same window".

- IE 7 - Passwords settings:
(top)
- To turn off prompt to save passwords in Internet Explorer 7.0:
- In Internet Explorer, Select "Tools"
- Select "Internet Options"
- Open the "Content" tab
- In the AutoComplete section click the Settings push-button
- Uncheck 'User name and passwords on forms' and 'Prompt me to save password'
- To delete AutoComplete History and Clear Out Passwords for sites previously visited in Internet Explorer 7.0 perform the following two processes:
- Delete Form Data using the Delete forms push-button
- Delete Passwords using the Delete passwords push-button
- In Internet Explorer, Select 'Tools'
- Select 'Internet Options'.
- Click on the 'General' tab.
- In the 'Browsing history' area click the "Delete..." button, the 'Delete Browsing History' window will now appear.
- In the Forms Data section - click 'Delete forms' push-button and then click 'Yes'
- In the Passwords section - Click 'Delete passwords...' push-button and then click 'Yes'
- Close the Internet Explorer 7.0 window and re-open.
Note 1:
The AutoComplete feature in Internet Explorer can save Web addresses, form data, and access credentials such as usernames and passwords. This information will then be automatically entered every time you visit the site again.
The issue is that the credentials will also be automatically entered for anyone else who sits down at your computer and access those same sites. It defeats the purpose of having usernames and passwords if they are already automatically entered by your computer.
Note 2:
You can select or de-select different types of information to store in AutoComplete:
- Web addresses stores URL's that you type and automatically tries to complete them the next time so you don't have to type the whole thing each time.
- Forms stores data such as your address and phone number to try to help populate form fields so you don't have to re-type the same information every time
- User names and passwords on forms stores the usernames and passwords for sites you visit and automatically enters them when you visit the site again. There is a sub-option to check so that Internet Explorer will prompt you each time rather than automatically saving passwords. You can use this if you want to use the feature, but not save passwords for more sensitive sites such as your bank account.
- You can turn off AutoComplete entirely by de-selecting each box
Note 3:
Even if you turn off AutoComplete, or just the option to save user names and passwords in AutoComplete, the passwords that have already been stored will remain. Go to the General tab and click the Delete button in the Browser History section to get rid of stored passwords.
Note 4:
If an Administrator account is used to reset the Windows password for a user account, all stored information such as passwords will be erased. This is to prevent an Administrator from being able to gain access to your information by changing your password.
The AutoComplete feature seems like a nice idea. It is helpful to use the AutoComplete of Web addresses so that you only have to type in long URL's once and then Internet Explorer will remember them the next time. But, storing passwords in AutoComplete is a bad idea unless you have some other way of ensuring that nobody but you will ever have access to your computer. If remembering usernames and passwords is a problem, We recommend disabling the AutoComplete feature.

Interval Overrides (top)
Path:
Option located in the Equipment File.
Overview:
When equipment (within a class) requires a different inspection frequency, an interval override may be
used. The override is related to the Inspection Interval and Trade.
Valid Overrides are:
1 Weekly 13 Quarterly 208 Every Four Years
2 Every Two Weeks 17 Every Four Months 260 Every Five Years
3 Every Three weeks 26 Every Six Months 312 Every Six Years
4 Monthly 52 Yearly 364 Every Seven Years
5 Every Five Weeks 78 Every 1.5 Years 416 Every Eight Years
6 Every Six Weeks 104 Every Two Years 468 Every Nine Years
8 Every Two Months 130 Every 2.5 Years 520 Every Ten Years
10 Every Ten Months(area only) 156 Every Three Years 624 Every Twelve Years
Example Scenario:
- Beds in the ER need to be inspected more often than beds in regular patient rooms. (ER Beds 2x per year, Regular beds 1x per year)
- Using the same Class and PM procedures we can Override the frequency of the inspection interval with the associated trade for a specific piece of equipment.
- Example: the Inspection Interval in the top box is 52, meaning annual. Enter 26 in the interval override. That piece of equipment will now be inspected twice a year.
- The system looks at the Trade/Inspection Intervals in the upper section, then checks to see if there is an Override in the lower section.
If an override is defined, the system processes the lower section (override section) and ignores the upper section.
Miscellaneous:
- When the check file has **INPUT**, the Input function will not work if you have interval overrides.
- Overrides cannot be used for more than 3 procedures.
- When clearing out an Interval override enter a zero, the number 0 then click save. The system does not recognize the back space or delete keys. It is looking for a value- so it interprets a back space or delete as an invalid entry and keeps the previous entry.
Revised: 09/15/2020
Keys - General & Changing (top)
Overview:
See section below for changing keys details.
The system uses "keys" to represent files.
All files are accessed via keys.
This makes data entry much faster than typing in a full name.
You get to make up the keys. In most files, keys can be 1 to 12 characters in length.
When creating keys, we suggest you use a minimum of 3 characters, and try to keep to a maximum of 6 characters.
- If one word, use first 3-6 letters to create a unique key
Examples:
ENG represents the cost center ENGINEERING
15246 represents the control#/asset# of a piece of equipment
- If two words, use first 3 letters of each word
Examples:
BOBJOH represents the employee BOB JOHNSON
MOTELE represents the equipment classification MOTOR, ELECTRIC
- If more than two words, use first 3 letters from the first word, and then 2 letters from each subsequent word.
Example:
ROOPAAC represents the area classification ROOM, PATIENT, ACUTE CARE
Miscellaneous:
PROMPTING & KEYS
You do not need to know the exact key when entering data. Enter the first few letters of the item you are looking for and the system will give you a list of keys and corresponding names for you to choose from.
Special Characters
Please do not use the following special characters in mPro3.
[ ]
| Open or Close Bracket
|
{ }
| Open or Close Parenthesis
|
"
| Double Quote
|
'
| Single Quote
|
&
| Ampersand
|
º
| Degree symbol
|
- All other characters are ok.
Changing Keys:
- Whenever a key is changed mPro3 updates all supporting files. The process will be slow if there is a lot of data to be changed.
We suggest you do this during off hours.
- Employee key - Change when the user is NOT logged in.
- Class key - When changed, the associated check key(s) are updated with the new key. The work order, service history etc. files are also updated.
- Area key - Updates past and current work orders.
- Project - all associated files will be updated.
- User keys cannot be changed. Inactivate and recreate the record with the new key.
- Work Order numbers cannot be changed.
- Linked files: Key changes will not be made to the Material, Service Code, Parts, and Request 'linked files' - It is assumed that these keys will not be changed once they are used.

Materials (top)
Overview:
WHAT ARE MATERIALS?
Materials are any substance other than parts used during service work or inspections. The material file keeps a record of materials used in the engineering department so that projections of material costs can be made. Materials are used on the 2nd window of the area file.
ANTECEDENTS AND CONSEQUENT
Materials records are not necessary to use the system. Usually, this file will be used only after the program has been in use for a long time. If
the material file is used, they can be entered before the area class during the original set-up. Vendors must be entered before
materials.
NEW MATERIAL WORKSHEET
The following information will be needed to enter materials:
1. Material key ____________
2. Material name ______________________________
3. Manufacturer (key) ______________________________
4. Catalog number ______________________________
5. Color ______________
6. Pattern _______________________
7. Vendor #1 ______________________________
8. catalog number _______________________
9. Vendor #2 ______________________________
10. Catalog number ______________________
11. Fire class _________
12. Cost per square foot _________
13. Labor per square foot_________
14. Life in months _________
Field Descriptions:
MATERIAL KEY - At least the first three letters must be the same as the general description of the material. Three letters of the general
description followed by three letters to separate this material from similar materials is the suggested method. (i.e. "PANMAH" =
PANeling, MAHogany). It is necessary for sorting and searching to use a six letter key. For one word names drop the extra letters (i.e.
"enter Corkboard as "CORKBO"").
If there are too many variations of this material to describe with the last three letters, a numeric system may be a solution. Paints could be
coded "PAIB12", "PAIG04", "PAIW28", etc.
Later, when someone does not know the key, they may enter the first two or three letters and a list of choices beginning with those letters will display on the screen. (i.e. Entering "PA" may display a list including "PAIWHI - Paint, White",
"PANMAP - Paneling, Maple", etc.).
Use one common system for ALL key entries.
NAME - 30 characters are available to enter the material name.
MANUFACTURER - The key from the manufacturer (vendor) file.
CATALOGUE NUMBERS - The product code according to the vendor or manufacturer entered in the previous field. This applies to all three cases of this field.

Overview:
MANUFACTURER DISCLOSURE STATEMENT FOR MEDICAL DEVICE SECURITY (MDS2)
The Medical Device Security Workgroup of the Health care Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) created the Manufacturer
Disclosure Statement for Medical Device Security (MDS2) form to allow medical device manufacturers to provide information security
information in a standardized manner. This form simplifies and speeds acquisition and distribution of this information for both manufacturers and health care facilities. Manufacturers will be able to respond to many health care facility needs with a single form. Also, health care organizations can receive comprehensive information from each manufacturer in a standardized format that will simplify application of that information. The completed form may already be available from the manufacturer - if it is not the manufacturer is more likely to respond with useful information if a hospital requests information on this standardized form than if individualized requests for information are submitted.

Mean Time Between Failures (top)
Choose MEAN TIME BETWEEN FAILURES from the SPECIAL REPORTS pull down.
Calculates the "mean" time between Failures as recorded in your Service History file by looking at QA cat 4, FAILED
INSPECTIONS.
Because this report scans service history, it is generally a slow report.
See the Mean time between repairs for additional information.
Revised: 08/29/2002
Mean Time Between Repairs (top)
Choose MEAN TIME BETWEEN REPAIRS from the SPECIAL REPORTS pull down.
Scans service history & creates an index at the location of the service
history file to speed things up but generally a slow report.
Looks at QA Category 3, REPAIRS.
It is best to run the report for a long period of time.
You should re total units before running report (under Utilities pull down). You may want to make sure all equipment classes have a "1" in the type field in the classification file.
The number of hits is the number of 2nd, 3rd, etc. repairs for a given control#. It is for calculation purposes. For example: Say you have a class called "BED" and 3 control#'s 1001, 1002, 1003. And the data in the service history file looks like:
BED 1001 01/15/1991
BED 1002 03/15/1992
BED 1002 12/15/1995
BED 1003 06/15/1990
BED 1003 05/15/1992
BED 1003 07/15/1993
BED 1003 06/15/1994
The number of hits for calculation purposes is:
0 for 1001
1 for 1002
3 for 1003
The first hit doesn't count. It is the starting point for calculating the mean time between repairs. So BED 1001 has no time between repairs and hence no count. BED 1002 has a TBR of 3 years 9 months or approximately 1300 days. BED 1003 has TBR of 700 + 425 + 335 = 1460 days. So 1460+1300 divided by 4 hits is 690 days = MTBR.
The data is in class, control, date order.
Stores data in class file fields st4=#repairs, lv4=MTBR.

Merge Two Control #'s or Other Keys (Class,Cost Ctr/Dept,Area,Vendor/Mfg,Model) (top)
Path:
Utilities > Merge 2 Control #'s or Other Keys
Overview:
Use this Option with Caution:
This procedure can be done when 2 keys have been used to refer to the same thing. By merging two keys,
your database will eliminate redundancy of data. Merging two keys can be done in the following files:
- Control#
- Class - Merging the class also merges the checks file. Delete redundancies before merging.
- Cost Center/Department
- Area
- Vendor/Manufacturer
Miscellaneous:
- Merging Control#, Class, Cost Center/Department, Area or Vendor/Manufacturer keys are
very slow because the equipment, work order and service history files must be modified.
- At the end of the process, the system will inactivate the key.
Process Flow:
In the Vendor/Manufacturer file there are two keys (entries) for Hewlett Packard:
Key Name / Description
1. HP...............Hewlett Packard
2. HEWPAC...Hewlett Packard
I would like to merge all entries from HEWPAC into the HP key.
In the menu option enter the following:
Vendor/Manufacturer key you want to keep HP
Vendor/Manufacturer key you want to merge HEWPAC
The system will make the appropriate changes to the files (Merging HEWPAC into HP).
At the end of the process, the system will inactivate the key HEWPAC.
Push-Button/Check Box/Links:
Merge Control - Perform the Control Merge
Merge Class - Perform the Class Merge

Metering (top)
Path:
Look up Tables > Classification > Page 2
Overview:
Metering is used in conjunction with the Classification file. This section gives an overview of this process.
mPro3 allows you to define up to 2 parameters for metering based on equipment classifications.
Each parameter has 2 items: Parameter name and cycle value.
mPro3 assumes that you manually collect meter readings and then enter those into mPro3.
mPro3 then compares the meter readings to the equipment records last meter readings.
If the last meter reading + the cycle value is greater than current meter reading, mPro3 makes a notation on the equipment record that a Preventive Maintenance inspection is needed.
When you're finished entering all meter readings into mPro3, start the create inspection process.
Process Flow:
For example:
Dialysis Machines generally have a Minor and Major PM.
We enter an Equipment Classification of DIALYSIS MACHINE with the following parameters.
Parameter/Reading name/type |
Cycle |
1000 hr Minor PM |
1000 |
3000 hr Major PM |
3000 |
Next, add 2 inspections checks.
Note: mPro3 shows fixed interval options when adding these checks.
For the 1st parameter we would add a Monthly check.
For the 2nd parameter we would add an Annual check.
This is just so that mPro3 knows which check goes with which parameter.
It does not effect when inspections are created.
Then we enter the Dialysis equipment items. For each equipment item we need to set the current last meter reading when the Minor and Major PM's occurred.
Each week manually visit each machine and record the current meter reading.
Back in mPro3, enter those meter readings.
If any PM's are needed, a message will display and then Create and then Print inspections in mPro3.

Missed Inspection Report (top)
Path:
Inspections > Reports > Missed Inspection
Overview:
The Missed Inspection report provides a list of equipment that does not have an inspection done within number of days specified in the date received criteria. Generally this is a one year period.
Default date range is set to one year since most biomed equipment has to be seen at least annually.
Report data comes from service history and equipment files.
Example 1:
If today is June 1, 2011
The default (One Year) Date Received range is defined as 06/01/2010 to 06/01/2011
The system will give a listing of control numbers where no inspection has occurred within the date
range of 06/01/2010 through today's date.
Note: There may be inspections created but not closed.
Example 2:
If today is June 1, 2011
The Date Received Range is defined as 05/01/2011 to 06/01/2011
the system will give a listing of control numbers where no inspection has occurred within 30 days. This will be most of your database.
Special Excel Report (See bottom of screen).
When clicking the 'Create Special' push-button, the system will Create an excel file of equipment where
last inspection date is less than when the PM should have been done.
It will only looks at first trade, 1st inspection check, model interval, and equipment interval override

Overview:
The Charge Back and Environment of Care/Safety Reports, are summaries of all work orders opened & closed in the requested month. These reports
should be run at the end of each month after all work orders have been closed or within the first few days of the following month before new work orders are closed. The data comes from workord.dbf.
Menu Options Available
Charge Back Report:
Charge Back Report, in mPro3 for Windows is referred to as Report A.
The Charge Back Monthly report prints a summary for each department, a summary for the facility with one line per department. (The text version prints 2 lines.) Only items that were started and completed in the specified period are reported.

- Include service history detail - Used to show service history detail on the report.
ENVIRONMENT OF CARE/SAFETY REPORT OPTIONS (Check Boxes):
- print class & department detail
- print parameter page - Report will list the criteria entered to create the report
- exclude Incoming Inspections (QA category 8) from inspection count
See 'Key to report calculations by line' below to view the effect using this check box has on the report.
- print for each facility range *
- print for each cost center in range
* print for each facility/cost center in range cannot both be checked
- include lines for life support (function score=10) and high risk ____ to ____ (17-20)
Note: User may specify the high risk range.
The report will include the following lines:
The 3 lines below will report only work orders with the Function Score field of 10
PM'S SCHEDULED - LIFE SUPPORT
PM'S COMPLETED - LIFE SUPPORT
PM'S COMPLETION RATE - LIFE SUPPORT
The 3 lines below will report work orders with the risk field set to 17 through 20
PM'S SCHEDULED - NON-LIFE SUPPORT
PM'S COMPLETED - NON-LIFE SUPPORT
PM'S COMPLETION RATE - NON-LIFE SUPPORT
Some equipment may be life support (function score 10) and high risk (risk 17 - 20) in that scenario they would show up in both sections (counted in both sections)
- include lines for high risk (function score=10), exclude In storage and Other incompletes, Unable to PM%, No Equipment
- previous period inspections completed should include last month only
- Include lines for high risk
- Include a line for Compliance Opened (QA 5)
- Include lines for Failure Type. See Failure Type section in this manual for details.
- Include service code 1700 Equipment Not Located, 1701 Equipment Not Available, Other QA 7 as a completed order
The report numbers for a given period should always look the same ASSUMING that all data entry is complete.
For example, let's say on August 1 you run the report for July 1 to July 31
Then on Sept 1 your run the report again for July 1 to July 31.
All the numbers should be the same with the exception of:
PM'S COMPLETED (after period ended)
PM'S STILL OPEN
REPAIRS/SERVICE ORDERS STILL OPEN
The report completed #'s will never change in the future. Repairs completed on orders after the period ends IS NOT reflected in this report. You can run the work statistics report to see work completed after the period ends.

pm's completion rate=pm's completed/pm's scheduled

---------------------------------------- Key to report calculations by line: ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE:
A = PM'S SCHEDULED (area and equipment pm's)- (QA Codes 4,6,7,8)QA category 8 has an option to be excluded when running report
This count may change during the month due to Repair Work orders being closed with a PM QA category.
Examples:
- Incoming Inspections
- Equipment - Was unable to locate and is now found and need to do an inspection.
- Equipment - Moved from one department to another and internal procedures require an inspection.
----------------------------------------
Below is a brief synopsis of how the PM's numbers will add up when using the check box 'exclude Incoming Inspections (QA category 8) from inspection count' (Is check marked).
Add the following:
- PM'S COMPLETED
- PM'S COMPLETED (after period ended)
- IN STORAGE
- IN USE/UNAVAILABLE
- COULDN'T FIND
- OTHER INCOMPLETES
- PM'S STILL OPEN
Subtract the following:
- PM'S STILL OPEN & IN USE/COULDN'T FIND
This will equal PM'S SCHEDULED
----------------------------------------
B = PM'S COMPLETED (closed with QA Codes 4,6,or 8)
C = PM'S COMPLETIONS RATE - PM'S COMPLETED divided by PM'S SCHEDULED or B divided by C
D = PM's COMPLETED (from previous periods) - Closed with QA cat 6 (These are from past periods, closed this period)
E = PM's COMPLETED (after period ended) - Closed with QA cat 6 (These are from this period, but closed after period ended)
F = FAILED AND CORRECTED PM QA Code 4 (this manual had said Code 7, revised this date 9/24/01)
G = FAILED PM % (F divided by A)
H = UNABLE TO PM This is IN STORAGE + IN USE + COULDN'T FIND + OTHER INCOMPLETES, otherwise as I+K+M+O (See below) divided by PM'S SCHEDULED (A).
I = (1703) IN STORAGE - QA code 7 and service code 1703
J = IN STORAGE (% OF SCHEDULED) I divided by A
K = (1701) IN USE (TOTAL) - QA code 7 and service code 1701
L = IN USE (% OF SCHEDULED) L divided by A
M = (1700) COULDN'T FIND (TOTAL) - QA code 7 and service code 1700
- Work orders must have a closing date to appear on report.
- See setup flag F034 if close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing; You may want to change your setting.
N = COULDN'T FIND (% OF SCHEDULED) M divided by A
O = OTHER INCOMPLETES - Inspections closed with QA cat 7 EXCLUDING 1703, 1701, 1700. (QA 7 in the Work Order file.)
P = OTHER INCOMPLETES - % O divided by A.
Q = ACCEPTANCES - QA Code 8, Incoming Inspections
R = INCOMPLETES (completed after period) (captures # of incompletes in month X that were completed in month X+1 OR greater)
S = PM's STILL OPEN & IN USE/COULDN'T FIND - QA code 7 that are still open in the period. Service codes 1700/1701 only.
T = PM's STILL OPEN - QA Codes 4,6,7,8 that are still open 'In the Period'
PMs Still Open is calculated for example:
PMs Completed + (plus)
PMs Completed after Period Ended = (equals)
Total PMs Completed
PMs Scheduled - (minus)
Total PMs Completed = (equals)
PMs Still Open
Note:
'PM's Still Open' are PM's open as of the day the report is run through the ending date requested when running the report.
So let's say you are running the report on 1/10/2009 for November 1-30, 2008
The 'PM's Still Open' are PM's open as of 1/10/2009 created before Nov 30,2008
U = PM'S STILL OPEN HOURS - Calculated using standard time on Open PM's
V = NO. OF EQUIP WITH NEXT INSPECTION DATE - This is the total number of equipment that has the 'Next Inspection Date' field populated and IS ALWAYS for the entire system; not the parameters selected.
---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
The scheduled maintenance section of the report should balance out in 1 of 2 ways
Option 1:
(assuming that the "in use" and "couldn't find" are OPEN:
Line A=B+E+I+O+R (scheduled=completed+completed after period ended+in storage+other incompletes+pm's still open)
Option 2:
(assuming that the "in use" and "couldn't find" are CLOSED):
Line A=B+E+I+K+M+O+R (scheduled=completed+completed after period ended+in storage+in use+couldn't find+other incompletes+pm's still open)
(In the above example the IN USE and COULDN'T FIND are CLOSED so must be added in)
If you have some IN USE and COULDN'T find that are OPEN and CLOSED, THE REPORT WILL NOT BALANCE OUT.
Note: The line "Inspections completed (after period ended) " may be incorrect because some "in use" and "couldn't find" may not be closed out.
---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
REPAIR/SERVICE ORDERS:
AA = REPAIRS/SERVICE ORDERS RECEIVED (QA Code=2 and 3)
BB = REPAIRS/SERVICE ORDERS COMPLETED(QA Code=2 and 3)
CC = REPAIR/SERVICE PERCENT COMPLETED
DD = COMPLETED AFTER PERIOD ENDED
EE = COMPLETED FROM OTHER PERIODS
FF = NO PROBLEM FOUND (TOTAL) (QA code 9)
GG = NO PROBLEM FOUND (% OF COMPLETION)
HH = USE ERROR TOTAL (QA code 11 -- All codes except for Staff Damage service codes 1100,1104,1106,1109
II = USE ERROR (% OF COMPLETION)
JJ = STAFF DAMAGE (DOLLARS)
KK = STAFF DAMAGE(OCCURENCES) (QA code 11 -- Staff Damage service codes 1100,1104,1106,1109
LL = AVERAGE REPAIR TIME IN DAYS
MM = REPAIR/SERVICE ORDERS STILL OPEN - Is all repairs open as of the day the report is run through the ending date requested when running the report.
Example:
I run the report on January 10, 2009 for November 1 to 30 2008.
The line item will so Repairs Still Open as of January 10, 2009 but created before November 30, 2008.
---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
OTHER WORK:
NN = TRAINING CLINICAL STAFF (QA code 13)
OO = TRAININGS PROVIDED TO OUR STAFF (xx)
PP = EQUIPMENT INCIDENTS (QA code 5 and service code 1254 or 1255)
QQ = SPECIFIC HAZARDS AND RECALLS (QA code 5 except equipment incidents)
RR = NEW EQUIPMENT ADDED TO INVENTORY (service code 1800,1812)
SS = EQUIPMENT DELETED FROM INVENTORY (service codes 1429 or 1649):
- Data comes from the Service History file.
- This line counts closed work orders that have the service code 1429 - Repair (removed from inventory/QA=1) or 1649 - PM (equipment archived/QA=6).
- When 'Closing' the Work Order, the service code 1429 or 1649 has to be in the 1st place Action box (Action/Service)
for count to appear on the monthly report.
Example Action/Service = 1429. You may put other service codes in Noun A or B.
See Equipment To Be Archived (Inactivated) - Automatic Process for details.
TT = PROJECT TIME (QA code 12)
---------------------------------------- Notes ---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
The REPAIRS/SERVICE ORDERS section does not balance out.
Several QA categories are not included i.e. Project and Administrative orders are not shown here.

Next Inspection Date Utility (top)
Under special utilities set next inspection date is a note that reads
(run after the 22nd only).
If you run it before the 22nd, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, yearly pm's that came out in march that now have future dates, the next inspection date will be reset to march 04.
For example. Let's say you had a pump that has a semi-annual inspection due in March and September, When you create the PM's for march, the pm comes the next inspection date will get set to September 15, 2004 (or something close to that). If you run this utility it would set it back to march 15, 2004.
The reason for this is that we generally set the inspections to come out for the middle of the month. That's why we use week 3 for January instead week 1. That's because week 1 could be part of December.
I know this is a bit confusing. Please call if you need further clarification.
Note: You can sometimes get around this problem:
Exit mPro3
move the date ahead on your computer
go back into mPro3 and run the utility
exit mPro3
reset your date
You can only do this if the your computer allows you to reset the date.
On some systems you can't.

Order Status Codes (top)
Overview:
The Order Status field is not used to determine if a work order is open or not. If the date completed field is filled in, then the work order is closed.
----------------------------------------
Order Status contains pre-filled in choices available from the drop down list:
Default 'Order Status Codes' (Hard Coded) are:
- OPEN
- CLOSED
- BEING SERVICED NOW
- OPEN - TRIED TO INSPECT
- PARTS ON ORDER
- OUT FOR REPAIR
- DEFERRED SERVICE
- VENDOR CALLED IN' or ; To be used for PM'S, Vendor training, and Generic closings.
- VENDOR CALLED IN FOR REPAIR'
----------------------------------------
You may define other Order Status codes by using Service Code number range of 1470 through 1489. These codes do the following:
- Display in Order Status drop down
- Add technician and date to Order Status
- Make entry in history, as all closings do
- QA Category for 1470 to 1489 are set to 1
- If site requires Order Status Codes not to be shown as Service Codes - There is a back door to prohibit use of code 1470 through 1489 as Service Codes so they display as Order Status options but cannot be used as Service Codes. (pgrm note: set qa to 99)
----------------------------------------
Parts Service codes that keep Order Status as open:
Service Codes 672 (Awaiting Parts) OR 1426 (Parts Ordered)
If a work order is closed with codes 672 or 1426, the status on the work order will be changed to 'PARTS ORDERED, EMPLOYEE, DATE' and the order will remain Open. i.e. Change the 'Date Completed' to blank. The system is set up this way.
If you don't do business in this fashion, you can delete 672 and/or 1426 service codes and create ones in the 9000 series.
----------------------------------------
Special case:
Scripps Biomed close with 1900 keeps pm open
----------------------------------------
Setup Flags that keep Order Status as open:
- F034 If close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing
When an inspection is closed and Setup Flag of F034 is active the system will change the Order Status to 'Open-tried to inspect', change the 'Date completed' to blank and update the QA category of the Work Order to 7 (Incomplete Inspection).
- F113 Subsequent closings on PMs override initial service code / QA category on work order. F034 must be set as well.
----------------------------------------
See Service Codes section for more details.

Overview:
This option gives a fast way to add & close work orders for work completed for which no work order was assigned.
Miscellaneous:
The closing programs allow for more than one person to add & close work orders at the same time. When you close, the information entered on this screen is stored in a file.
At the end of the day (or at any time), this information must then be "posted" to the database. This should be done about once a day. "Posting" is a disk intensive operation and no additional add & close combinations should be done while posting.
Process Flow:
Enter the following information:
CONTROL NUMBER - Enter the appropriate Equipment Control Number (optional).
-- Or --
AREA - Enter the appropriate Area from the drop down menu.
Continue entering data as applicable (See Field Descriptions below, for details)
SAVE - Once the data entry is complete click 'Save' this action saves the work order to the database and assigns the WO#.
The new work order# appears in the top portion of the screen.
CLICK HERE TO EDIT ORDER - Text will appear when an order is saved and the system has assigned a work order number.
This only occurs when Automatic Posting is off (F028) and the user has their 'Closing' profile set to 4.
Field Descriptions:
ORDER NUMBER - The system will populate this field after the record is saved..
CONTROL NUMBER - Enter the appropriate Control Number (optional).
AREA - Enter the appropriate Area from the drop down menu.
REQUEST CODE - If applicable, enter a request code from the drop down menu. Click the Get Request push-button.
Note: If you use a request code, and click the 'Get Request' push-button, the following fields are populated:
a. Request Code
b. Time
c. QA category
d. Action/Service
e. Noun/Service
f. Priority
g. Material ($)
PROBLEM - If a request code is not used, enter problem here.
TIME - Time used to complete this service.
QA CATEGORY - Select the appropriate QA Category from the drop down menu.
EMPLOYEE - Select the appropriate Employee from the drop down menu.
SERVICE CODES - Describe the work that was done.
The engineering mPro3 system uses a verb-noun-noun system to record most completed work. The reason that codes are used in addition to free form comments is that the codes can be analyzed and reported in a meaningful manner.
For accurate accountability reporting, the first work order closed should always use the service code or action verb which best describes the overall reason this work order was required.
Use the ACTION/NOUN/NOUN boxes or the drop downs.
*ACTION/SERVICE CODE* Enter a verb or *service statement code that best describes the work completed.
Note: Service statements are single codes which describe other than regular repair work.
Example: 1104 Unit damaged, or 1600 Safety inspection.
Note: If this work order has a valid request code entered, the time, service codes, and material$ will be displayed on the screen.
These data elements come from the Request Codes file. You may override these and enter the actual service codes performed, or accept the defaults.
*NOUN/SERVICE CODE*
Verbs (Action/Service) can be followed by one or two nouns to clarify the component on which the action was taken.
PRIORITY - Enter if desired. User defined field, most clients use 1, 2, or 3.
PROJECT - If applicable, enter the project
NOTES - Enter free text notes.
COST CENTER - If the system does not fill in this field automatically, select the appropriate Cost Center from the drop down menu.
PART 1 - Enter your first part.
QUANTITY - Enter the quantity.
PART 2 - Enter your second part.
QUANTITY - Enter the quantity.
MATERIAL $ - Enter the total cost of materials used by the technician. If parts and materials are being charged by another method in your hospital, do not enter material dollars here. Costs not included may include materials covered under a contract or costs automatically calculated using the parts closing option.
COMPLETED (Y/N/Unclose)
- Y - The prompt defaults to "Y" because you will want to close the work order in most cases.
- N - If more work is to be done, but you want to close out some of the order now, enter "N". The status will be changed to "BEING SERVICED NOW" and the work order will still be reflected on listings of active work orders. This is used when you want to record the work completed but don't want it billed until the job is completed. If, however, you want the charges recorded this month and the job will not be completed before the end of the month, you can either change the work order to a blanket work order, and close it now, and then close it again next month; or you may close the work order now with a "Y" and create a new one for next month's work. The reason for this is that the work order charges would get double billed on monthly reports if you close it this month and next month.
- Unclose - This will subtract time & amounts, fix all figures in the files, and delete service history. This is used when you have
accidentally closed a repair or inspection. If you have closed a work order with multiple parts, they will have to be deleted and fixed
manually.
Push-button / Links:
SAVE - Push-button - Once the data entry is complete click 'Save' this action saves the work order to the database and assigns the WO#. The new work order# appears in the top portion of the screen.

Phone Close Orders (top)
Path:
Phone Menu > Close Orders
Overview:
The closing program allows more than one person to close work orders at a time. Each work order may be closed more than one time to allow accurate records of all work that was performed. For the sake of accurate accountability reporting, however, the first work order closed should always use the service code or action verb which best describes the overall reason this work order was required.
The term “Work order" may refer to either repair or inspection.
Flags and Security Settings:
In the SETUP File, you can set flag F028 to post upon clicking the save push-button. This will save and post work entered by Access 4 users.
Access 5 users may post all work regardless of the flag setting in the SETUP File.
You can also enable individual users to post when saving.
Process Flow:
ORDER OR CONTROL#: Enter the Order or Control number you wish to close.
SKIP DISPLAY OF OPEN ORDERS: When selected the system will skip the 'Display Open Orders' screen
CONTINUE: Press "Continue" to enter subsequent information.
SAVE - Saves closing information to the database.
CANCEL - Cancel this closing
Field Descriptions:
ORDER # - Work Order number
QA CATEGORY - Choose the appropriate category for the work that was performed. The QA Category
is used to categorize and report on orders.
DATE COMPLETED - The date when the work order was completed as MM/DD/YYYY. The date will default to the system date, or the last closing date entered.
TIME OF DAY - The time of day the work order was completed. Use the 24 hour clock method HHMM.
Example: 2:30 in the afternoon = 14:30.
COMPLETE (Y/N/Unclose)
Y - The prompt defaults to "Y" because you will want to close the work order in most cases.
N - If more work is to be done, but you want to close out some of the order now, enter "N".
The status will be changed to "BEING SERVICED NOW" and the work order will still be reflected on listings of active work orders. This is used when you want to record the work completed but don't want it billed until the job is completed. If, however, you want the charges recorded this month and the job will not be completed before the end of the month, you can either change the work order to a blanket work order, and close it now, and then close it again next month; or you may close the work order now with a "Y" and create a new one for next month's work. The reason for this is that the work order charges would get double billed on monthly reports if you close it this month and next month.
Unclose - This will subtract time & amounts, fix all figures in the files, and delete service history. Use when you have accidentally closed a repair or inspection. If you have closed a work order with multiple parts, they will have to be deleted and fixed manually.
SERVICE REPORT # - If work was performed by a vendor, enter the Service Report #.
PRIORITY - Enter if desired. User defined field, most clients use 1, 2, or 3.
NEW ORDER STATUS - Select one, otherwise the system will set.
AREA# - Select the appropriate area from the drop down menu if incorrect.
CONTROL# - Enter the appropriate control # from the drop down menu for the equipment serviced.
NEW CONTROL # - Enter a control number and click the Enter push-button. The new equipment control# will appear in the control#
field.
Control# must be an exact match to what is in the equipment file.
---------------------------------------- Employee ----------------------------------------
EMPLOYEE - Select the appropriate Employee from the drop down menu.
SERVICE MINUTES - Enter the time in minutes required to perform the service. For accurate accounting reports, always enter the actual amount of time used to complete this work order. This field is automatically populated if Time in Inspection checks file is entered.
MATERIAL $ - Enter the total cost of materials used by the technician. If parts and materials are being charged by another method in your
hospital, do not enter material dollars here. Costs not included may include materials covered under a contract or costs automatically calculated using the parts closing option.
RATE - The rate which should be charged for this work. By default the field is set for "R-regular time".
For regular time, the rate comes from the employee file. Generally overtime = 1.5 X Regular rate, and premium time = 2.0 X regular rate. For overtime and
premium time, the rate may also come from the trade file. Change Setup (3) file. See F047.
This field is not used for vendor related services.
SERVICE CODES - Describe the work that was done.
The engineering mPro3 system uses a verb-noun-noun system to record most completed work. The reason that codes are used in addition to free form comments is that the codes can be analyzed and reported in a meaningful manner.
For the sake of accurate accountability reporting, the first work order closed should always use the service code or action verb which best describes the overall reason this work order was required.
You can use the ACTION/NOUN/NOUN boxes or the drop downs.
ACTION/SERVICE CODE
Enter a verb or *service statement code that best describes the work completed.
Note: Service statements are single codes which describe other than regular repair work.
Example: 1104 Unit damaged, or 1600 Safety inspection.
Note: If this work order has a valid request code entered, the time, service codes, and material$ will be displayed on the screen. These data elements come from the Request Codes file on the Look up Tables. You may override these to enter the actual service codes performed, or accept the defaults.
NOUN/SERVICE CODE - Verbs (Action/Service) can be followed by one or two nouns to clarify the component on which the action was taken.
NOTES - Use if necessary
---------------------------------------- Parts ----------------------------------------
PART#1 - Select the appropriate Part from the drop down menu. (See GET PART#1 below)
QTY - Enter the quantity.
*LOC#- Not implemented at this time.
GET PART#1 -
If parts are needed, enter the part# in the text box under Get Parts , press the Go push-button.

Example:
When entering the number 1, the system returns all entries starting with the number 1 in the drop down menu. Select the appropriate part number(s) and quantity.
PROJECT - Select the appropriate entry from the drop down menu. (See GET PROJECT below)
GET PROJECT -
If a project is needed, enter a piece of the project name/number in the text box under Get Parts , press the Go push-button.

Phone Closings and Post (STM and READE only) (top)
Path:
Phone Menu > Closings and Post
Overview:
(STM and Reading only)
The closing and post option is used for editing and posting only.
What is the difference between closing and posting?
The closing programs allow for more than one person to add & close work orders at the same time. When you close, the information entered on this screen is stored in a file. When you post the data is stored to the database.
Why is closing separate from posting?
Closing is done separate from posting to give management the ability to review data prior to being posted to the database. This ensures data
integrity. Once a record is posted the data cannot be corrected. You must use the unclose option.
When should I Post?
At the end of the day (or any time), this data must be "posted" to the database. This should be done about once a day. "Posting" is a disk intensive operation and we recommend that no additional closings should be done while posting.
How do I verify a close order is posted?
In the Main mPro3 system (not Phone) Go to the 'Closing And Post' option; Select the Posted radio button; Click Find; View the status field,
“P” means posted. You may also run a display data off the closing file using the status field.
Flags and Security Settings:
If a user has the 'User Security Setting' (on the closing file) of 5 or 6 OR the flag (F028) is On, the record will automatically post.
Access 5: The system automatically posts the users closings, in addition user has the ability to post other users closings by displaying the
'Post' push-button in the 'Closing And Post' option. Wherever the post push-button appears, the system will post all records. User cannot post individual closings.
Access 6: The system automatically posts the users closings. Applies to that employee only.
Note: The post push-button still appears for clients who use Phones.

Phone New Repair Order (top)
Path:
Phone Menu > New Repair Order
Overview:
mPro3 accesses the work order database, which contains work orders for both repairs and inspections.
Repair orders are created on demand as necessary, while Inspection orders are created based on a preset schedule. Refer to Inspections, Scheduling, and Creating Inspections sections.
Repairs can be created for equipment, areas/fixtures that have been added to the appropriate DATA files. Because the items are in a file, some of the information on the screen will automatically be filled in for you. You may override, where applicable. If you need to enter a repair for equipment, fixture, or area that has not been entered into the appropriate DATA files, you must first add those items before you can proceed. Refer to sections on DATA, CLASSIFICATIONS, EQUIPMENT, and AREAS.
There are two steps in generating a repair. The repair is first created, then printed.
You may create a repair for a piece of equipment, an area, or a fixture. You may create a regular repair, a blanket repair (a repair that is open indefinitely), or a project repair (a repair that is attached to a project).
Process Flow / Field Descriptions:

QA Categories (top)
Overview:
The QA Category codes are used for categorizing & reporting work.
Closings:
- If the system is set to 'Have system set QA category based on Action Service Code', the QA category is set on the first service code on the first closing.
- When closing orders, you must choose the appropriate QA Category for the type of work that was completed. The QA Category Codes are used for categorizing & reporting work.
- The closing programs generally check service and QA codes to help keep them in sync. Synchronization is not necessary though. The QA code supersedes the service code(s).
- Only codes from 1100-1999 actually change the qa category. The rest leave it as is, which is generally one of the 2 repair categories.
Note:
When a work order is closed with Vendor Related service codes of 2000 to 2099 - The qa category is NOT changed. The work order QA category remains the same as when it was created, unless manually changed.
Reports:
- Most reports use QA Codes for reporting.
- Some reports items look at both QA code and service code. This is usually only for QA code 7=incomplete inspection when we break down not located and unavailable totals.
Note: Also see the Service Codes section in this manual.

Overview:
This program accesses the work order database, which contains work orders for both repairs and inspections.
Repair orders are created on demand as necessary, while Inspection orders are created based on a preset schedule. Refer to Inspections, Scheduling, and Creating Inspections sections.
Repairs can be created for equipment, areas/ fixtures that have been added to the appropriate DATA files. Because the items are in a file, some of the information on the screen will be filled in for you. You may override, where applicable. If you need to enter a repair for equipment, fixture, or area that has not been entered into the appropriate DATA files, you must first add those items before you can proceed. Refer to sections on CLASSIFICATIONS, EQUIPMENT, and AREAS.
There are two steps in generating a repair. The repair is first created, then printed. You may create a repair for a piece of equipment, an area, or a fixture. You may create a regular repair, a blanket repair (a repair that is open indefinitely), or a project repair (a repair that is attached to
a project).

Path:
Accountability Reports > Repair Quality Assurance
Overview:
This report produces gross number or hour productivity for technicians, trades, cost center, and classifications for all unscheduled work categories over a time period (usually a month).
Note: The gross number report will only count a work order with a repair code as the first closing statement. The hour report will count all time for all closing statements that fall into the appropriate categories. The technician equipment repair average is based on all repair hours even if that repair was done on an inspection. Because of this you may have a report with no equipment repairs but then have a second report with some hours. This sometimes makes trade averages look incorrect.
Downtime added see section in this manual.

Overview:
This report shows the number of completed repairs and completion percentage within a specified period either by cost center, trade, employee, class, or department.
- There are 4 options for different time frames.
- less than 48 hours, 2-7 days, 8-30 days, 31 + days
- <4 hours, <24 hours, <48 hours, 2-7 days, 8-30 days, 31 + days
- less than 48 hours
- less than 48 hours, 2-7 days
- There are 3 options for QA categories:
For QA Categories and Related service code details, see QA Categories section of this manual.
- Repair QA categories (2,3,5,9,11,13)
- Repair QA Categories (above) and (1,10,12,and 14-16)
- Inspections
Note: Percentage is cut-off downward and can be calculated manually.
Note: Data comes from the Work Order file, Open orders excluded from report.
Note: orders with exact start and end time counted in 1st column. No blanket or order types>4
Example:
A cost center may have 15 requests for repairs within a month. Let's say 12 repairs are completed within 24 hours and 3
repairs are completed within 2-7 days. When you run the report for this cost center, under the <48 hours you should see 12 repairs
with 80% completion rate and 2-7 days with 3 repairs of 20%.

Repeat Repair Report (top)
Path:
Accountability Reports > Repeat Repair
Overview:
This report lists equipment by control # (and work order #'s) with more than one service call in a given time period.
In general, this is only used for Biomed.
There are 2 main reasons you have repeat repairs.
- Equipment needs more frequent PMs, that's why it is breaking down. If it's not scheduled the number of PMs can't be increased, so why report it.
- Technician or Vendor may not have repaired effectively the 1st time.
This report uses the work order file and excludes inspections and equipment not scheduled for inspection.
Report excludes equipment not scheduled for inspections because there is a lot of equipment that breaks often in a hospital. i.e. all the scopes.
Normally sites don't want to report because predominantly this equipment is not scheduled for PM because they are inspected by the user before use.
Field Descriptions:
DATE - Enter the beginning and end date of the query.
FACILITY - Enter the range for the Facilities.
TRADE - Enter the range for the Trade.
REPEATS ARE - The user can define what a Repeat Repair is by providing the frequency of repairs repeated in an interval of days.
MAX DAYS - This field is used in conjunction with the Date Received Starting and Ending Range. The user has the opportunity to change the 'Max Days' field or the Date Received range. This parameter allows the user to verify a large date range prior to running the report.

Reports Overview - Differences In Some Monthly Report Counts (top)
Overview:
This section explains differences in figures between some monthly reports.
MONTHLY REPORT -CHARGE BACK REPORT
This report counts inspections (scheduled) and repairs (unscheduled) created and completed in the specified period. The report tells you nothing about work created in the period and finished after the period. Data comes from repair/inspection order file (WORKORD.DBF).
Optionally, you may include work created before the period and finished in the period (prior period column on report) by setting the check box 'show prior period completed items (repairs & inspections completed in, but initiated before period)'.
Note: Inspections closed using QA category incomplete are considered complete. This report only distinguishes open (never closed) items.
Note: If you run the report by department (etc.), and the department has been recently deleted, the detail and subsequent summaries will not
include that data. (See also: Monthly Report.)
MONTHLY REPORT -SAFETY REPORT
Same as above for CHARGE BACK report though both "Notes" do not apply. Data comes from repair/inspection order file (WORKORD.DBF).
QUICK STATISTICS REPORT
This report looks at all work completed in period regardless of when it was created. Breaks down into 2 columns Life-Safety (this means the field CLSTYPE is an "L" or "LS") or non-Life-Safety. Data comes from repair/inspection order file (WORKORD.DBF).
Note: Inspections closed using QA category incomplete are considered complete. This report only distinguishes open (never closed) items.
ACCOUNTABILITY REPORTS
This reports ignores anything still open (never closed). QA categories (and to a much lesser extent some service codes) are very important
here. Data comes from service history file (SERVHIST.DBF).
Revised: 02/01/2001
Request Codes (top)
Path:
a. Look up Tables > Request Codes
b. New > Request Codes
Overview:
Request codes are used when entering repairs.
The purpose of this file is to speed data entry for similar service requests.
Request Codes also assist in creating reports for the same type of service.
Example:
When creating a work order a person may word a request as 'toilet clogged' -or- 'fix latrine' -or- 'bath room is flooded'.
If management would like to see how many work orders were created for a particular type of request, it becomes a challenge to guess the repair order description. When a person uses a request code, you are able to create a report based on that Code.
Miscellaneous
The Service Codes etc. will appear on the closing screen for the first closing only.
Process Flow:
New Request Codes:
Press "New" to add a new Request Code. Enter the appropriate fields, and press the "Save" push-button.
On a Repair Orders:
Enter a Request Code, the service request statement, trade, priority, and projected time will appear.

Reschedule Load Hours (top)
RETOTAL TRADE LOAD HOURS
This program recalculates trade inspection work load hours.
This program should be run periodically since the scheduling of equipment and area inspections does not update the load hours.
This is a slow program. Plan to run it at night when little or no other activity is taking place.
To recalculate load hours select "RETOTAL INSPECTIONS" from RETOTAL PROGRAMS of the UTILITIES pull down.
There is a similar program to RETOTAL REPAIRS.
NOTE: Scheduled Load reports are always correct. The report totals are calculated at the time you run the report.

Scheduling Overview (top)
Path:
Inspections > Scheduling and Load Reports > Schedule Inspections
Overview:
Scheduling is the process that assigns an inspection week to a piece of equipment or an area. Inspections are created based on the cycle
week, and intervals from the Inspection Check Procedures file.
Before inspections can be scheduled, areas, and equipment, and their respective classes and inspection procedures must be entered.
- Classes are entered in the CLASSIFICATIONS file (See 'Classification Types Area/Equipment' for detailed information).
- For each class an Inspection procedure (checks) are entered in the Inspection Check file (See 'Inspection Checks' section for detailed information).
- For each procedure, the inspection interval is entered.
- For each trade entered for a particular class, at least one check for that trade, must be entered if you want to schedule items in that class for that trade.
WEEK OF GREATEST INSPECTION/CYCLE WEEK:
When scheduling, the week of the year in which the first of these checks will be done will be entered. The first week in the inspection cycle
will be referred to as the "cycle week", and should be the "week of greatest inspection". The "week of greatest
inspection" refers to the week you schedule the "greatest inspection", e.g., quarterly, semi-annual, annual,
bi-annual.
From the 'Week Of Greatest Inspection/Cycle Week', all lesser inspections to be scheduled, will be distributed
throughout the year based on the intervals in the inspection procedures file.

Week Of Greatest Inspection/Cycle Week: 04, or 4th week of January
Week of lesser inspections: Interval: 4 (Monthly): 08,12,16,21,25, etc.
Interval: 13 (Quarterly): 17,30,43,04, etc.
Scheduling can be done by control #, system, etc., or for an entire class at one time.
When items are scheduled by class, the Week Of Greatest Inspection/Cycle Week entered will be applied to all areas or equipment in that class.
When the classes are created, you are allowed to enter up to six trades for each class. Inspection procedures must be set up
for each class, trade, and interval combination. Each trade must be scheduled separately. Each trade entered will receive a separate
inspection work order when it is due.
When items are scheduled individually, the week of greatest inspection must be entered for each item (see Schedule Inspections By Control#).
This selection can be used to make a few items different after all items have been scheduled as a class or system. It can also be used to
schedule items added after the class has been scheduled.
Note: Most items are originally scheduled by class. When many items are scheduled individually, it is easy to miss an item.
To verify all Areas or Equipment have been scheduled, run a Display Data listing on the Area or Equipment file.
Equipment Example:
1. Go to the menu Display data
2. On the 'Display data - pick table' screen ---------------------- select EQUIPMENT and click continue.
3. On the 'Display data - pick saved template' screen ------------ click the NEW ENTRY push-button.
4. On the 'Display data - pick fields to Display' screen ----------- select control and cycle_week_1, then click continue.
5. On the 'Display data - set order' screen ----------------------- Accept the defaults, then click continue.
6. On the 'Display data - pick fields for Criteria' screen ---------- Accept the defaults, then click continue.
7. On the 'Display data - set criteria' screen --------------------- Do the following for the field name equip__cycle_week_1
a. operator <
b. value 1
c. Click create report.
The report will list all equipment where the cycle week is zero.
Notes:
Individual items can be checked by looking at scheduling section of the record.
Verify the Inspection intervals are entered, if this item is to receive an inspection
DESCHEDULING INSPECTIONS: Descheduling" is removing the entire schedule so that no inspections are created.
This would make sense for items that are in storage, on loan, or no longer used.
The 'Schedule Inspections' option may be used to deschedule items.
To deschedule an item, enter "0" as the Cycle Week (Week of Greatest Inspection).
The 'Equipment' and 'Areas' options may also be used to deschedule items.
To deschedule an item, enter "0" in the Week column (Cycle week / Week of Greatest Inspection).
Note: To find fields for Areas look under the 'Fixtures & Prompts, Trades heading'; Equipment look under the 'Scheduling' heading.
OVERRIDE INSPECTIONS:
A user may override equipment inspections up to two trades. See 'Equipment' section for further details.
OTHER:
Scheduling does not update the trade inspection work load hours. "Re-total trade hours" should be run periodically to get
accurate load hours.
Miscellaneous:
Review the 'Calendar Weeks' section in this manual for week standards.

Lists > Service Code Listing
Overview:
Service codes are used to describe the work completed when closing an order. Service codes can be verbs (action words), nouns, or service statements (a combination of verb(s) and noun(s)). Service codes are strung together to make up "service statements" that will display in the service history file. You can enter any service code in the 9000-9999 range. For reporting purposes, these codes will be considered repair codes.
Service codes are used for reporting purposes in conjunction with QA Category codes.
Miscellaneous:
- To print a list of Service Codes to give to your technicians:
Go to Lists > Service Code Listing > Select the 'Ordered by' sort > You may want to use the Excel File and put borders.
- On Closings - If the system is set to 'Have system set QA category based on Action Service Code', the QA category is set on the first service code on the first closing.
QA Categories:
- Repair = 1,2,3,5,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16
- Inspection = 4,6,7,8
- See QA Categories section of this manual for more details.
'Order Status' Service Codes:
- Service codes 1470 to 1489 (Default and Custom Order Status codes)
- Service Codes 672 (Awaiting Parts) OR 1426 (Parts Ordered)
- Service Codes 1662, 1700 (Equipment Not Located) and 1701 (Equipment Not Available/In Use), 1708
See Order Status Codes section of this manual for details.
------------------------------------------
'Update' Service Codes:
- Service Code 1202 - If code 1202 'Verified Proper Operation' is in 3rd place, the system will automatically set QA category to 9.
- Service Code 1428 - See FAQ How do I process an 'Equipment in Storage' PM (1428/1703)?
- Service Codes 1429 (Removed From Inventory/QA=1) or 1649 (Archive/QA=6)
- Setup Flag F095 = Active
- When the Setup Flag F095 is active and a closing is entered with 1429 or 1649, the system will automatically delete/archive equipment, set the Department to ARC, Cycle Weeks to Zero, and set the Next Inspection to blank. For some systems the department will not change. Ask your mPro3 admin or call MAYER COMPUTER SERVICES, INC..
- Also see 'Equipment to Be Archived (Inactivated) - Automatic Process' section in this manual for details.
- Service Code 1617 (Out of Service)
- When Service code 1617 is used the system does not update the Last Inspection Date.
- Service Code 1660 (Return to Active Service)
- Scripps only - Counts on a special report.
- The code is used when a device has been archived, and has been reactivated. This should be the first service code listed on the work order.
- Service Code 1698 (Inspection Completed) - When closing with the Service Code 1698, the system will automatically insert all frequencies in the Service History notes. (i.e. Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly etc.)
Notes:
Program code looks at the interval to determine what text to insert into the Service History notes.
Use 1698 instead of using specific codes like 1613, 1615, 1618 etc.
- Service Code 1703 - See FAQ How do I process an 'Equipment in Storage' PM (1428/1703)?
- Service Code 1801 (INCOMING INSPECTION-RETURN)
- This code has nothing to do with archival, but is used when a device has been sent out for repair or inspection and has been returned to the hospital.
Field Names:
SERVICE CODE - 6 digits, Do not change the numbers already in use.
NAME - Description statement, 30 characters or less.
Service Code and QA Category List:
***********************************************************************
* WARNING!
* MANY REPORTS USE THESE SERVICE CODES FOR ANALYSIS.
* DO NOT CHANGE EXISTING CODES.
***********************************************************************
All service codes should fit into the correct range, "verb" or
"noun". This is necessary for proper calculations and reporting.

Service / Service History (top)
Path:
a. Service on the Quick Link, header menu
b. Look up Tables > Service History
Note: See Process Flow (below) to add a New Service History.
Overview:
Use to Add or Modify history.
This option provides user with a list of service history based on selected search criteria. There are several 'Ordered By' selections available.
Add Service History:
User may add Service History but be aware, adding a new service history bypasses the work order process.
Modify mis-entered history:
A better method is to Unclose the work order (which fixes Year to date numbers etc.) and reclose the order.
See Process section below for general guidelines.
Miscellaneous:
The date completed range is set for three years but may be changed.
Process Flow:
Find an individual control number:
Enter the control number and the system will return all the history for that control number.
Note: When a single control number is used all other fields are ignored.
For all other searches you must fill in the date completed line.
Add new Service History:
Use the search criteria to find the Control / Record you wish to add service history to > Click '+ Edit' on your selected record > Click the New push-button > Enter the appropriate information > Press SAVE when complete.
Note: Adding new service history bypasses the work order process, allowing the user to enter lines into history. Usually used to enter past history prior to purchase of mPro3.
Modify Service History
Depending on your scenario use one of the suggestions below.
- WORK ORDER IS POSTED:
- If the change is Minor, and the closing 'HAS' been posted go to Service via the Quick Link (Links located at the top of the mPro3 screen) and modify the service history.

Service History General Information (top)
Overview:
Service history records are added automatically by the system when you close & post an order.
The Service History menu option allows user to Modify past history. New history is added by entering a closing against the work order.
Service history may be added to the databases for services performed prior to converting to mPro3. In addition service history may be modified.
Please be aware Adding new service in the 'Service History' file bypasses the work order process.
mPRo3 does some very complicated things when showing service history so as to make it pretty.
That is, if the employee is the same don't print it twice, etc.
There are several program options available for use.
Area Service History: | Creates a Report based on Area and Date Range. |
Area Service History Report: | Creates a report that allows multiple search criteria and several output options are available. |
Equipment Service History List: | Creates a Report that allows multiple search criteria and several output options are available. |

Shortcut Keys (top)
Shortcut Keys are actually links that will enable you to quickly access a page without having to return to the main menu.
These links are displayed on the top right of most pages throughout mPro3. Some examples of the links are:
Menu - will send you back to the main menu with the lists of pages.
Logout - will log your user name off of mPro3, and redirect you back to the login screen.
Close - will send you to the Close Orders screen.
Equip - will redirect you to the equipment page.
Service - will go to the Service History file.
Repair - will take you to Repair/Inspection Orders page.
ENTER KEY
The Enter Key is a quick way to click on the first button shown on the screen or the Save Button for any form in mPro3 that displays the
fields of a single record in any file.
TAB KEY
The Tab key will allow you to move through the form through each field. This will highlight any text box or button field. Note: If the Tab key is pressed and highlights a button and the Enter key is then pressed, Enter will now execute the button that was highlighted and no longer the Save button (if there is a Save button on the page). But if the focus is on a text box or any other field, by pressing Enter will
execute Save button.

Show Service Code List (top)
This option allows you to view all the service codes in the drop-down list where the service code section is listed on the page.
This option does take longer to load the page.
Otherwise, the page will show only that service code stored for in the record.
If a record needs to be changed, there are field boxes before the drop-down fields to either enter a Service Code or the Name,
which will result in any (and perhaps many) Service Codes that contain what was entered.
Example: 1600 - will display "1600 - Safety"
REP - will display the following list:
"60 - Repaired"
"61 - Replaced"

Unclose Work Order (top)
Path:
a. Click Close on the quick links toolbar
b. Closings > Close Orders
Overview:
The unclose function applies to 'Posted' repair or inspection orders.
When a Work Order is closed with incorrect/incomplete information e.g. Incorrect Close Date, time, employee etc., the easiest and most complete way of reversing the transaction is to use the 'Quick Unclose' function.
There are manual ways of reversing closings entries, but since several files may be updated the most complete reversal method is to use 'Quick Unclose'.
With Quick Unclose - various fields do not get reset, such as the Employee and Trade in the work order file. These need to be manually reset if needed.
When a work order has multiple service histories select the entries to be processed. The work order will remain closed. If appropriate, you may manually change the status of the work order back to Open.
If you need to change notes or add an attachment to a service history, you may go directly to the service history file and make these changes. These two types of changes do not affect any other files.
Process Flow:
To Unclose a work order
- Click 'Close' on the quick links toolbar
- Enter the order number
- Click the 'Unclose' check box
- Click Continue
- Check mark the entries to unclose
- Click Confirm Unclose push-button - The system will respond 'nn records unclosed' with notation of Order Status.
- Reset the Employee and or Trade in the work order file if required
.
- Work Order will remain closed unless all items are checked.
- If applicable, manually change the status and clear date completed date etc.
To reverse an Unclose
- Reactivate the Service History and
- In the work order file enter the close date and update the status
- Update any other applicable fields
Note: Instead of the above (Reverse an unclose), you may want to re-enter the closing to bring forward the labor charges etc.

Utility System Failure (top)
The steps that need documentation are.
1. Inspect/analyze and identify failure
2. Repair
3. Report back
4. Inspect/analyze again
5.Report back
You can do all of these by using existing service codes when closing a work order. For example:
1. use code 1900 to record a failure on inspection (or specific procedure failure corresponds to procedure on form - if procedure number 2 fails, put in 1902)
2. use repair code say 61 (replaced) 102 (alarm)
3. use code 1606 to record inspection complete
If you wish to record this by class, close the class work order as well.
You can also add this system to the system file if there are multiple components. Then you can bring out all service history for all equipment file components (make sure you put the system key in the equipment file).

Work Statistics Report (top)
Path:
Special Reports > Work Statistics
Overview:
The Work Statistics report is generally used to see if you have completed PMs/Inspection in a given period EVEN IF THEY WERE DONE LATE. This report may be run in the future. It counts work completed in the future (Excludes QA category 8).
A benefit of this report is that you can pick up to five columns of data.
The report data comes from the work order file.
This report is generated by date received/initiated only. This is different than most reports that look at date completed. In this way you can run a report showing work completed for a given month, regardless of when it was completed.
This means you can run this several months in the future on a long past month and see what was completed.
Example:
Many facilities use the 'class type' field from the classification file to distinguish various types of equipment.
This is a user defined field, although most facilities use the following:
CP=casual prevention
E=equipment
FS=fire safety
IC=infection control
LS=Life safety
U=utility
Many facilities use the "risk" field. 1-5 are common risk categories.
One or both of these fields are used in your "Risk Based" categorization of equipment.

Issue 1a:
(top)
In the 'Equipment file' I set 'Max Records to find:' to 9999999. This way the system will return all records, but I get a Time Out error, why?
Resolution:
The system is not designed to return 'all' records in large databases. Refine your search criteria and try again.
Run an equipment listing instead.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 1b:
(top)
I have Equipment information that I would like to track and search but I don't see a field that fits what I need.
Resolution:
In the Equipment File use the FREE INDEX. This field has no assigned purpose and can be decided by the user. It is important to use a standard form of entry for all records.
12 characters are available.
You can also specify up to 12 special fields in the class file. See the section Prompts.
You can create labels here for the specific class and then in the equipment file put the responses to those labels.
These fields are only searchable in display data however.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 1c:
(top)
Is mPro3 capable of flagging or notifying us when the equipment warranty expires?
Resolution:
Yes...
When you create inspections, check mark the 'Create warranty inspections for range' check box, then enter a date range. The system
will create an inspection for the equipment where the warranty expires within the date range specified.
The services requested field will display 'Warranty Inspection', with a default service code of 1607 - Warranty Inspection.
Note: Warranty date needs to be filled out in the Equipment file.

Is it suggested to give loaner equipment a control number?
Resolution:
Yes...
Several users use the prefix of L, followed by the date, and numbers going up from there.
Example: L050310100 (Lmmddyynnn)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 1e:
(top)
When saving equipment changes, I get the message 'Warning! Equipment not saved! No Procedure/Interval'. How do I resolve this error?
Resolution:
This issue occurs because the equipment is scheduled (Cycle week is defined) with no corresponding Inspection Check.
If equipment should be inspected, create or reactivate the check.
If equipment should NOT be inspected, Go to 'Schedule Inspection by Control #' and set the cycle week to zero.
Notes:
This mostly occurs when the inspection check is inactivated/deleted in error or equipment is no longer to be inspected and user forgot to unschedule the associated equipment.
When PMs are created the system will create a PM with the message 'Inspection Interval Missing though equipment has a cycle week'.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 1f:
(top)
I want to create a list of all control numbers starting with IS.
Resolution:
The control number field is "Right Justified" with a total of 12 alpha/numeric characters that can be defined.
Because the field is right justified, on an equipment list, all control numbers with a length of 6 alpha/numeric characters appear first, then the ones with 7, 8 etc.
Example data: IS001, IS999, ISA01, ISA10
Solution 1:
Take the control number and insert into another field that is NOT Right Justified - The free index field is sometimes used for this purpose. mPro3 staff can write a script to perform the task.
Run a Display data report using the Free Index field for your criteria (use 12 alpha/numeric characters):
Starting Range: (Greater than or equal to) IS0000000000
Ending Range: (Less than or equal to) ISZZZZZZZZZZ
Solution 2:
This would require you knowing how many characters are defined in the control number. In the data example above there are 5 alpha/numeric characters used.
Using a display data report use the Control Number field for your search criteria:
Starting Range: (Greater than or equal to) IS000
Ending Range: (Less than or equal to) ISZZZ

I have some PM procedures and Inspection notes and would like to put into mPro3, where do I put them?
Resolution:
Generally go to the Inspections Checks section.
- If you want Inspection Notes information recorded, put it in Inspection Notes in the class file (Page 2).
- If you 'don't need the information recorded' put it as an attachment in the checks file (attachment can print with the PM).
Note: The technician can add an attachment when closing a work order.

How do I process my 'Not Located' Equipment PMs?
Resolution:
Each site has their own internal procedures on how to handle Equipment not Located.
Please refer to 'Your' internal documented procedure.
Below is an example of one sites internal procedure.
a. Perform PM’s and finish by end of 3rd week of the month.
b. On the 4th week verify if you can find any missing equipment.
c. For located equipment perform the inspection and close the work order.
d. For equipment still not located, go to Department Manager and ask them if they know where the equipment is.
A big challenge is mobile equipment, to handle this the example site does the following.
a. The site does all IV pumps in 1 month.
b. They place a visible sticker (inspection dots) on the front of the equipment. The color of the dot notes the Month Year for next inspection.
c. Every 3 months they rotate the color.
If the equipment is still not located:
a. Close the work order with QA category 7 (Incomplete Inspection) and Service code of 1700 (Equipment not Located).
b. For mobile equipment, Send an email and ask Nurses and/or Managers to look at stickers and if earlier than current month call Clinical Engineering/Biomed
c. Once a Quarter run the Equipment to Be Archived Report. This report will show work orders closed with QA category 7.
d. If the report looks good, run it again and check the box 'ARCHIVE NOW'.
e. Send the report to requesting department(s).
Note:
See the 'Key to report calculations by line' in the 'Monthly Report - Safety Report' section in this manual.
The section gives details on how the Monthly Report presents this information.
In addition, be aware of setup flag F034 - You may want to change this setting.

a. operator <
b. value 1
c. Click create report.
The report will list all equipment where the cycle week is zero.
Notes:
Individual items can be checked by looking at scheduling section of the record.
Verify the Inspection intervals are entered, if this item is to receive an inspection.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3h:
(top)
I have multiple PMs that have 'Inspection Interval Missing though equipment has a cycle week' in the Services Requested field, what do I do?
Resolution:
Inspections are created for equipment or areas that have a cycle week (in the area or equipment file) but have no intervals defined (inspection checks).
These PMs alert the administrator that this scenario has occurred and action needs to be taken.
When this scenario exists, a pm is created for each week of the given month. The services requested field has the text 'Inspection Interval
Missing though equipment has a cycle week'.
To correct this:
Identify the work orders created by running an Inspection report:
Inspections > Inspection Reports> select the Report Type of Inspection_Worksheet_Equipment > Open the Excel > look in column - - i1 - - for zeros. Write those order numbers down. These are the orders to be reviewed. You will need to look at the control number or area files.
Notes:
You can also look at the Inspection Worksheet report, 5th column (INT). Look for zeros.
-or-
Run a display data report for the key words of 'Inspection Interval Missing'
Verify if the Equipment or Area need to be inspected and do the following:
Equipment or Area 'Does' need to be inspected.
- Go to the Inspection Checks file and define the interval.
- Delete the extraneous work orders.
- If applicable, Recreate the inspections by the control number or area.
Equipment or Area 'Does NOT' need to be inspected.
- If the equipment no longer exists, deleted the equipment.
- If the equipment exists but no longer needs to be inspected, change the cycle week to Zero using the 'Schedule Equipment by Control' menu option. Set the cycle week to zero.
Note: You may have to do this via the 'Schedule Inspections by Control' menu option. Be very careful when using this option.
- Delete the open orders. To find the orders, go to the equipment or area file and click on the Open Orders push-button. Verify you are deleting the correct work order. If you have a list of work orders you can also delete via 'Remove Work Orders' in the Utilities menu.
- If the equipment no longer exists, delete the equipment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3i:
(top)
I can't get an inspection to create, what are the minimum requirements?
Resolution:
1. Verify, the Equipment or Area is attached to a class.
2. Verify, the class file has a Trade defined. - Generally this is what is missing.
3. Verify, inspection checks are created and are active in the checks file.
4. Verify, a cycle week is defined in the Equipment or Area file.
If all the above are present, verify the inspection should be produced for the weeks you are creating inspections.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3j:

How do I process (close) an Inspection that goes to a vendor/outside contractor for repair?
Resolution:
- Do a closing using code 1648 'Out for Repair - Completed PM' - and use the status 'Out for Repair'
- You might put something in the notes saying: Sent to vendor, shipping or pick up details etc. To use for your internal tracking.
- This entry will provide tracking in the service history.
- When the Equipment is returned close the PM as normal.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3k: (top)
How do I setup an inspection that goes to a vendor/outside contractor?
Resolution:
Follow your own internal procedures.
- Create a Trade (If there is not already one) for OUTCON, which means Outside Contractor.
- In the class file, trade section add the trade of OUTCON
- Create an Inspection Check - Define the trade as OUTCON
- Schedule the equipment as you normally do.
If an Employee manages the work order:
- You can assign work order to an employee their responsible for calling setting appointment and any follow up.
- When the employee closes the work order In the upper section, they enter the service code and in the lower section enter the Vendor information
Note: Flag F021 PUT TRADE OUTCON
This will put 'OUTCON' in the trade field of a work order if a vendor has done the work. Stands for Outside Contractor
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3l: (top)
I received a new piece of equipment and need to do an inspection, how do I process this?
Resolution:
1. Follow your own internal procedures.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3m: (top)
How do I make text automatically appear in the 'Notes' section on my closings? (This is so the technician can fill in readings that must be recorded in service history.)
Resolution:
1. Go to the Class file:
Look up tables > Classification > Enter the key & click find > Click +/edit > Click the page 2 push-button (at the top of the screen) > In the ‘Inspection Notes’ box at the bottom of the screen insert your text > Click save on this screen
Now when you do an Inspection closing, these notes will appear in the Notes Section of the closing.
This only affects closings for pm’s created this day forward.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3n: (top)
How do I process a Repair after a PM failed?
Resolution:
This is the procedure that is used at a couple of sites.
They do this procedure because the repair may sometimes stay open past the end of the month and they want to close the order out.
We suggest you create your own operating procedures and document.
- Open a new repair order. Note in the service request the repair that needs to be done and that an inspection needs to be done.
- Close the PM as failed and note the Repair Order #.
- Close the repair out when completed.
- Then close the repair out again saying the inspection is completed.
Do not close repair and inspection on same screen.
Notes:
Some sites have a supervisor review printed completed repairs and checks the service history listed to make sure that a PM has been done.
Other sites rely on the staff to do their work correctly.
There are other sites - if they are performing the repair immediately or very quickly, they just use the same failed PM work order for:
the failure
the repair
the completed PM
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3o: (top)
I want a procedure (same trade) to happen once a year on the same class but want a different procedure to happen once a year.
Resolution:
This type of scenario is applicable when a site has a combo furnace/air conditioner.
Depending on the season -- turn off heat switch/turn on cool switch or turn off cool switch/turn on heat switch.
- Create two weekly procedures and set the start and end week to the week you want the procedure:
Example:
- 1st procedure, Create a weekly check > Set the Start and Ending weeks for week 26 > Enter procedure: turn off heat switch/turn on cool switch
- 2nd procedure, Create a weekly check > Set the Start and Ending weeks for week 40 > Enter procedure: turn off cool switch/turn on heat switch
- Verify you have scheduled a cycle week in the Equipment file.
- You can verify the entries by looking at the 'Equipment Inspection Load Report'.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3p: (top)
How do I get the total number of pieces of equipment due for inspection?
Resolution:
There are two ways to do this:
- Utilities > Retotal Programs > Click Set Next Inspection push-button - The system will display 'Next inspection dates set on xx records.'
- Display data > Run a report on the equipment table and use the field 'Next inspection'. On the Fields to Search on page, set your criteria to 'Operator' of 'greater than' and 'Value' of '01/01/1950'.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3q: (top)
How can I order parts on a PM?
Resolution:
Close the order with a 1900 series service code (QA category is set to 4 - First closing on the work order file).
Close again with the service code of Ordered Parts
The order will appear on the inspection report because the QA category is 4 (First closing on the work order file)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Issue 3r: (top)
How do I process an 'Equipment in Storage' PM (1428/1703)?
Resolution:
When processing an inspection and you determine the unit is in storage -or- you are going to move the unit to storage, you may:
Close the PM with the Administrative Service Code 1428 'Moved To Storage'.
This action will change Work Order from the PM QA Category to an Administrative QA Category.
Or, you may opt to use Service Code of 1703 'Equipment in Storage during PM (Not Life Support)'.
This is for customers who want the total inspections generated at the beginning of the month to match those at the end of the month.

What does the tilde (~) sign mean? When do inactive (deleted) records appear and why?
Resolution:
The tilde (~) sign means the record has been inactivated (deleted)
Generally....
- When entering new equipment, inactive records will appear at the bottom of the drop-down menu.
They are prefixed with the tilde (~) sign.
- When closing a work order, inactive records will not appear in the drop down lists.
- Inactive records will show up on drop-down lists when you are searching for data (i.e. any of the Find Screens)
or when running reports. Again, you will see the tilde sign. They appear because they may have been used on old service history.
- Inactive records should not show up on excel sheets, directories or reports.
- Please verify if the 'Show Active Only' check box is checked when searching for files.

Monthly Report: COULDN'T FIND (TOTAL) section - How is the count determined?
Resolution:
The Monthly Report count for 'Couldn't Find Total' is determined on if the work order is Open or Not Open.
There are different ways to look at the scenario of keeping the inspections open or not open with a code of 1700 utilizing the Flag of F034. The decision is based on your in-house policy.
"Flag F034 if close with 1662,1700, 1701, 1708 keep inspt. open. See F113 for 2nd and subsequent closings override 1st closing; is located in the setup file.
Scenario 1
Flag is Active:
When a closing has QA code 7 and service code 1700 the Inspection must have a 'Date Completed' to appear on the Monthly Report.
The Inspection is kept open, and appears in the Open Orders Reports & Inspections Attempted Report. The work order will not appear on the Monthly Report until it has a status of Closed with a Date Completed.
Note: The inspectors look for 100% completion on Life Safety and 95% on the balance.
Scenario 2
Flag is INactive:
When a closing with QA code 7 and service code 1700 is processed, the closing will appear on the Monthly Report. The work order will have the Status of Closed and a Closing Date.
At this time, it is the sites choice on how they wish to proceed.
Site can:
- Keep the hard copy of the PM with the technician until the equipment is found. Then close the PM with the appropriate QA category and Service Codes when the unit is found.
- Keep a manual log of the inspections.
- Open a separate work order to follow-up.

First we need to find if the order has been posted.
To find if an order has been posted, go to 'Closings and Post', then follow the instructions below.
- WORK ORDER IS POSTED:
- If the record has one or two closing histories unclose the order and re-enter the histories. See the 'Unclose Work Order ' section in this manual for details.
- If the record has more than two closing histories contact Mayer Computer Services for direction.
- WORK ORDER IS NOT POSTED:
- If the record 'HAS NOT' been posted go to ‘Closings and Post’ and modify the closing.

Did You Know? (top)
Overview:
There are several instances in mPro3 where shortcuts are provided to make mPro3 easier to use. This section will cover some of those shortcuts.
- Drop Down Menus - Quickly navigate
- This process works in Internet Explorer versions 7 and above.
- Some databases have a large amount of data in some of the files that are presented in dropdown menus.
Example: One site has over 1800 records in their Manufacturer/Vendor Listing:
- When presented with a drop down menu and I want the entry AST (For AST Research) put your cursor in the drop down menu and enter AST QUICKLY - the system will jump to the entry AST.
- If you click the letter A and keep pressing the key, the system will scroll through all entries in the letter A.
- Defaults:
- The Find button is the default on the equipment search screen (the first screen) so there you can put in a control# and press enter. This is true of Repair as well.
- On the (show) screen, where you see all the equipment fields i.e. model#, serial#, etc, the default button is Save. This is true for these types of screens. This way you don't have to scroll to the top or bottom to save, you can just press 'enter'.
Examples: In the Equipment and Work Order files you may enter one number and press enter.
- To find just 1 control #, type it in and press enter. Otherwise both starting and ending parameter must be set.
- To find just 1 Order #, type it in and press enter, otherwise both starting and ending range must be set
- How do I use the Go or Get push-buttons?
- The Go and Get push-buttons populate the associated drop down menu.
The system will return in the pick list the closest range matching to what was entered.
Example: A
When entering a new work order, A client has over 1900 areas defined and is looking for 3NORTH.
In the 'Find Area' field enter 3 and click GO
The pick list will now be positioned in the 3xx range - You may have to scroll up or down on the drop down menu to find your entry. If there is a direct hit the system will select that area and continue onto the next screen.
Example: B
The user wants to add a control number to an existing work order
Go to the 'Repair' quick link at the top of the screen and open the work order record.
In the box to the left of the 'Get Control' push-button, enter the 'control number' and click the 'Get Control' push-button.
The drop down menu will now have the control number.
Example: C
When closing a work order, the user is ready to enter the Action, Noun, Noun fields. The Action = Change, Noun = Wheel.
In the Action field enter CHA, in the Noun enter WHE and click the Go push-button
The drop down menu will now be populated with Changed, Wheel.
- Quick Find, when in the Show Screen of Equipment file (or major files)
- When in the Show Screen of these files, in the upper left hand corner of the screen there is a box, directly toward the right is a Find push-button. Put another control number in that box and click the Find push-button, the system will now show that record.
Note: Make sure to click the find push-button, not the enter key.
- Equipment file 'See Select and Show' check box:
- When in the equipment file Find Screen, the user may select the check box 'See Select and Show'. Click the find push-button and a split screen appears with the Select and Show screens appearing. You may select the +/Edit to select another record.
- Add Print Parameters check box appears in several reports
- When printing a report sometimes it is helpful if what criteria used to create it. Print parameters lists the creation criteria at the bottom of the report. Try it with Repair Reports.
- Copy and paste
- You can copy and paste any text that appears on the screen
- Using the mouse - Block the text, Right click copy - Right click paste
- Using the keyboard - Block the text, Ctrl+C (copy), Ctrl+V (paste)
- Internet Explorer Find command
The Internet Explorer Find command can be very useful:
Example A - I want to find 'Change Password' in the menus. (Not available in rev2)
- Starting from the main mPro3 screen
- In the lower left hand corner of screen click the text 'Expand All'
- On the Internet Explorer toolbar - Click Edit > Select 'Find on this Page' > in the Find dialog box enter the word Password and press the 'Enter key'. Continue pressing the enter key to see any other instances of the word.
Note 1: Click on the menu item when you have found the one you want.
Note 2: Click Collapse All - to return the menus to their unexpanded view.
Example B - I want to find the 'Reference' field on the equipment show screen.
- Go to Equipment enter a control number and press enter
- Click the +/edit on the select screen
- You are now at the Equipment show screen (showing all the data in the record).
- On the Internet Explorer toolbar - Click Edit > Select 'Find on this Page' > in the Find dialog box enter the word Reference and press the 'Enter key'.
Note: Shortcut is Ctrl+F
- Internet Explorer will highlight the 1st instance of the word reference (Drawing Reference)
- Press enter again and the next instance of the word is highlighted, continue using the enter key and the find will continue in a looping sequence.
Note: Click the menu item when you find the one you want.
- Send a report via E-mail
mPro3 can automatically open your email and insert the attachment.
- Open your email and minimize the window.
- Create your report in mPro3.
- On the Internet Explorer window (of the report) click File > Send > Page by Email.
- A new email message will automatically open with the report as an attachment. Enter the recipient's name and click send.
- Gain page loading speed when closing work orders
- If you uncheck the 'Show Service Code List' check box in 'Close Orders', the page loads faster.
- This is because the Service code file is no longer loaded with the page.
- This should not be an issue since you can enter the service code or piece of text in the Action, Noun A, Noun B and click the Go push button.
- The system will automatically load the entry into the list.
- View/Edit multiple Equipment records at one time
This function is used when a user has to view and/or edit multiple 'Like type' Equipment records at the same time. It shows an abbreviated form of the Equipment ‘Select Screen' on the top and the ‘Show Screen' on the bottom portion of the screen.
- Go to the Equipment File.
- On the equipment 'Find' screen, check mark the box titled 'SEE SELECT AND SHOW'.
