What this flow is
A machine stops. The repair gets done, but the downtime, the spares used and the cost are rarely written down where anyone can find them.
Here the breakdown is an asset repair on the machine: when it stopped, the spare parts taken from stock and the repair. Every repair is listed against the machine, so its history is one click away.
Before and after
| Without it | With it |
|---|---|
| Breakdowns noted in a register | Each breakdown is a repair on the machine |
| Spares taken without a record | Spares come out of stock on the repair |
| Repair costs lost in general expenses | The repair's cost recorded against the machine |
| No history when the next fault comes | Every repair listed on the machine |
Screen by screen
Each step is a real ERPNext screen in the demo company. FlowMentor points at what to fill in.
Asset Repair
The machine's breakdown: when it stopped, the spare parts taken from stock and the repair.
Inside the demo company
Mith Demo Traders, a made-up company that makes and sells kettles and toasters. It isn't GST-registered, so its documents carry no tax.
The Body Press at the Pune Plant is down; you log the repair and take the spare belt from Stores, then see the machine's repair history.
You're signed in as a demo visitor. Nothing is emailed, and what you make is removed 15 minutes after you finish.
Who uses it

Maintenance

A guide on every screen
FlowMentor is our guide app for ERPNext. On each screen it points at the field to fill and the button to press, one step at a time, so you can finish the flow without training. It runs on the real screens, not a video.
