Tables#

Each table in the Event Log displays specific data and performs specific actions.

Tip

Filter/sort the contents of the current table by right clicking on a header cell.

Events#

All “event” tables share the same row in the database, but provide different views and functions.

Event Log#

Technical details of work performed.

  • Record of full event history per unit

    • Eg failure cause, resolution, etc

  • Email active items in passover

Tip

Try to keep event descriptions detailed yet concise. Nobody wants to read your wall of text.

Work Orders#

Administrative/warranty related info.

TSI#

TSI is a Komatsu term for Technical Service Information, but this tab is broadly for creating and organizing faiulre reporting. It can be used to:

  • Create Failure Reports

  • Auto-fill TSI info to KA website

  • Email failure reports

Note

A new TSI row can be created from a different table with Rows > Create TSI.

Tip

Use the Refresh Open (User) button to show only open TSI records you have created.

Component Changeouts#

History of all major component changeouts per unit.

To mark an event as a “Component Changeout” either:

  • Mark the event as a changeout when adding a new event in the Add Event Menu, or

  • Set the Comp CO field to True in the Work Orders tab, which will launch the Select Component Menu.

Warning

When adding new component changeout records, make sure to check the history in the event log first.

An event may already exists for the component you’re adding, but may not have been correctly marked as a “component changeout”.

Units#

Component SMR#

Currently installed component age, serial number, life remaining. (Read-only table).

Unit Info#

Single source of truth for all units in the Event Log database.

Adding New Units/MineSites#

MineSites are dynamic and do not need to be added explicitly. They will show up in all the relavent locations by adding units with the desired MineSite.

Units can be added manually one at a time:

_images/add_unit.png

Or, in bulk by providing a .csv file (NOT excel) with a single table with the following headers

  • Unit

  • Serial

  • Model

  • MineSite

  • Customer

  • Delivery Date (YYYY-MM-DD, optional)

Connect with Jayme on teams, or email jgordon@smsequip.com to perform the bulk import.

Factory Campaigns#

FC Summary#

Summary of all active FCs per unit.

  • Add comments to track completion/issues

  • Import FC records from Komatsu Global Portal

  • Manually create an FC if it doesn’t exist in Komatsu’s system

  • Close FCs when they have been completed

  • Organize open FCs to create an FC Report

Tip

FC Subjects from KA are usually too long. Give the FC a “Short Title” eg Exhaust Leak Repair instead of 980E-4 DOUBLE WALL EXHAUST LEAK >3MM GAP REPAIR PROCEEDURE to make the event titles easier to track.

FC Details#

Inspect individual FCs records per unit (as opposed to per FC).

Troubleshooting#

The Troubleshooting tab can be used to perform an advanced search of historical records. Its refresh menu has many of the same fields/filters as other tables, but the primary filter to use for this table is Search Text.

_images/troubleshooting_refresh.png

This filter accepts multiple search terms separated by a comma ,, and will seach on several fields in the database, returning rows and highlighting the search terms passed.

Warning

This is a relatively “expensive” query, so please make sure to limit your search as much as possible, using date ranges, models, etc.

This is useful if you are unsure of the exact event(s) you’re searching for, but know one or more terms which may be related to them.

Parts#

Show part names/numbers.

  • Add new part numbers if missing

  • Add “Alternate” part names for easier searching

  • When refreshing table, “Part Name” input field searches both “Part Name” and “Alt Part Name”

Warning

The data in the Parts database table is from a one-time bulk import from Komatsu in 2018. Some part numbers may be missing or outdated.

Oil Samples#

Oil sample history for all units/components in the FluidLife system.
