Once you've set up your vessel components and scheduled maintenance tasks in PlanM8, your planning view will begin to populate with daily, weekly, or annual tasks that need attention. Whether you're in the midst of maintenance or have just completed a task, registering this activity on PlanM8 is straightforward and ensures your vessel's maintenance history is accurately documented. Here's how you can register a completed task:
1. Locate the Task: Navigate to the planning view to see all scheduled tasks or use the 'Upcoming Task' tab within the specific component page to find the task you've completed or are working on.
2. Adding Attachments (Optional): If you need to add any notes or images related to the task, look for a rounded button close to the main registration button. Clicking on this will allow you to upload attachments such as maintenance notes or photographic evidence of the work done. This feature is particularly useful for detailed documentation and future reference.
3. Register Task as Executed: Once you've located the task, click on the prominent bottom button labeled something like "Task Done".
This action will record the task as executed in the system.
4. Documentation and History: All notes and images attached will be linked to the task and stored in the history of the component. This creates a comprehensive record of maintenance activities, making it easier to track the condition and servicing history of each vessel component over time.
By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your vessel's maintenance tasks are not only scheduled and planned efficiently but also documented thoroughly. This process aids in maintaining a high standard of vessel upkeep and can significantly contribute to the longevity and safety of your fleet. Remember, accurate documentation is key to effective maintenance management, and PlanM8 is here to make that process as seamless as possible.
