In the screen "Job cards" you can see and manage the job card templates. For checking the history of filled job cards see View jobs done (Job history) .
Whenever a job is executed a job card has to be filled. Depending on the activity it can be a default job card or a specific form i.e. with fields for measurement figures. You can either choose job cards from a wide range of templates created by MESPAS or develop your own. For each job card template you can upload different language versions. Of course you can also keep all job cards in English.

Add new job card templates
MESPAS provides a large number of job card templates for all common maintenance activities and for many machinery brands as per their maintenance manuals. In most cases these templates will fulfill your needs. But if you like to have own job cards, specific for your company, you can either commission MESPAS to create them or you can create them by yourself.

Many reports in the MESPAS reporting engine are based on the data entered into global job cards. These reports do not work if you replace them by your own specific job cards. |

Note: You can upload only one job card PDF template of each language and each job card type. When you upload a new version of the same language the old one will be overwritten. In this case use a consecutive revision number or letter. |
It is the job card type that is assigned in "Maintenance" > "Admin jobs fleet" to corresponding the maintenance activities. When you add a new PDF template (new language version or new revision) to an existing job card type it is therefore not necessary to change the job card in the maintenance activity setting. The new revision or correct language version will be displayed automatically when executing the activity.
If you add a new job card type and a job card PDF template, don't forget to assign it in "Maintenance" > "Admin jobs fleet" to a PMS setting.
It may be that there is no language version to a users language or no job card PDF template to a job card type:
•If the respective language version is missing, the job card will be displayed in the English version.
•If the English version is also missing, the Standard job card will be shown in the users language.
•If the Standard job card in the users language is missing, it will be shown in English.
•The English version of the Standard job card is always available.
