Routes

Routes simplify the creation of hierarchies of work orders for inspections. A route is a list of related assets, locations, or both. The assets and locations are considered stops along the route.

You use the Routes application to create, view, modify, and delete route records. You can use a route in the following ways:

• Apply the route to a work order and generate child work orders for each route stop.
• Apply the route to a work order and generate a single work order that contains a list of assets and locations for all the route stops.
• Apply the route to a work order and generate task work orders for each route stop.
• Apply the route to a preventive maintenance (PM) record, and then generate a work order for the PM.
