Create a New Parts Request

This section assumes you have familiarity with the ePartsFinder™ application. To enter a parts request through the TMS application, follow these steps.

1. Work Order > WO Query.

2. Enter your search criteria.

3. Click Execute.

4. Double-click a work order in the list to which you want to add a part request.

5. Click the Materials tab.

6. In the Material Issues area, click the Request Part button.

   The PartsSource integration must be configured for the Request Part button to be available.

7. The ePartsFinder™ application opens in a separate window. If the work order has an asset attached, the following information is filled in (as available on the work order):

   • Work Order Number

   • Asset Number

   • Asset Manufacturer

   • Asset Serial Number

   • Asset Model Number

   If an asset group is attached to the work order, an interim screen opens, and you will need to select a specific asset before proceeding to the ePartsFinder™ application.

8. Fill in the remaining information on the parts request screen and complete the request.

Once the part request is ready, PartsSource will notify TMS through the TMS Control Panel. A new material issue is created automatically for the ordered part or parts to work order.
