Summary

The Summary page provides an overview of maintenance work in your organization, including tasks specifically requiring your attention.

The top left defaults to the Maintenance Connection logo. You can also request Accruent to upload your custom logo. Contact your Account Manager for further information.

At the top of the page are options to filter the displayed items by Repair Center or Shop. If you make a selection, the page refreshes to display only items associated with the selected repair center or shop. If you select Repair Center and/or Shop values on this page, these filters are active for every module you access (except for the Asset module) until you reselect the All option.

A default shop can be established for each member, ensuring that all data is automatically filtered to that shop.  It can be established by setting a preference to use the shop defined on the member's labor record, or you can set the Default Shop on Startup Preference.

The Summary page displays a work summary on the left and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) on the right. In addition, if bulletins have been posted by your system administrator, they display on this page and you can click them for more information.

  • Work summary: The work summary lists items that may need your attention. Clicking an item updates the List Pane with your selection. Important Items are highlighted in red.

    KPIs: Key performance indicators are defined by your organization and provide a visual display of overall performance. For example, you have have KPIs that indicate the number of work orders overdue or the items that need to be ordered. Advanced users can edit KPI definitions by clicking the Edit link.

At the bottom of the page are sub-tabs that allow you to view the summary information for different modules:
