Parts & Service History

The spare part catalog carries a part number, name, unit, quantity on hand and reorder point. Part usage identifies the work order and exact part, with quantity and date. The posting action validates the order, part and quantity, records usage once and reduces on-hand stock. When stock reaches the reorder point, the action returns a reorder result for the coordinator to review.

• Find. Technician or Parts Coordinator chooses the catalog part used on the job.
• Post. Parts Coordinator checks quantity and links consumption to the work order.
• Review. Maintenance Manager reads service history alongside part use when assessing repeat work.

Agree part numbering and stock units before loading inventory. Two similar components need separate catalog identities if they are not interchangeable. Review starting on-hand quantities and reorder points with the people responsible for the storeroom. The reorder result is a cue for stock review; the coordinator can pass a request to a purchasing system connected during setup.

The posting action is designed to avoid counting the same consumption twice. Make it clear who enters actual quantities and who corrects a mistaken choice before a retry. The work order is the common reference for parts and work evidence, so a reviewer can compare what was done with what was consumed.

A technician replaces a fan belt during a Corrective order. Parts Coordinator selects the belt’s part record and enters the quantity consumed for that order. The posting action records part usage and reduces the stock balance once. The coordinator checks whether the new balance reached the reorder point. Maintenance Manager then reads the technician’s evidence and accepts the work, creating a service history entry for the fan.

During a later repeat call, the manager can open the fan’s history and trace the prior outcome to the same work order as the belt use. The catalog shows current stock, while usage shows the amount consumed on a particular job. That separation makes both the maintenance account and the storeroom balance easier to verify.

• Spare Part Catalog — The part catalog shows the current balance beside its reorder point.
• Service History Register — Completed outcomes stay connected to the asset and original order.
