5 Utilizing Help in WebTMA
Help icon on the toolbar is context sensitive summary for the window. Search under the Help from the menu Help for WebTMA WebTMA online documentation looks different from desktop, but you have many ways to get help. In addition, by publishing on-line, WebTMA assures the text includes the most recent product enhancements. Help is available in three ways: Help icon Full Document Search Click the Help  icon on the toolbar to display a .pdf file. This window-related help is intended to give you a quick overview of the module and some basic how-to instructions to get started. For complete information about every Tab in a module including field definitions, go to Help > Help Page. This window displays a list of documents by subject. These are links to a .pdf file that can be saved, printed, or read on-line. Of particular interest to WebTMA System Administrators are the Application Setup and System Administrator Setup documents. If you have a particular subject you want to research, use Help > Search. This opens a separate Search window with a Search for help field. Type a character string in the field, and click the Find button. If your subject of interest was "PM Schedule," WebTMA returns a list of every help topic that contains the character string PM Schedule. Since WebTMA looks for exact matches to the text, you may need to experiment to get the results you want. Click a link in the list, and the topic displays in a browser window

6 Utilizing Tutorials in WebTMA

8 Navigation Bar and WebTMA Menu
Navigator Pane The pane at the left side of the WebTMA window is a fast way to launch a window, to use additional functionality on the Action Menu, or to run short tutorial videos. Click the name of the related menu or feature to display a set of icons. Click the desired icon on the pane to launch the window. WebTMA Menu The WebTMA menu is located below the title bar at the top of all windows. It is similar to menus in other Microsoft Windows applications. The menu path to a window is referenced in the online help files as well as the WebTMA Help documents.

9 Action Menu Action menu is Context Sensitive Linked Documents
Post Cost Last Modified Authorize Manual Routing Tracking Estimates Add Favorite Add Bookmark Tutorials Action Menu for the Work Order window. Action Menu contains many functions that were tabs or buttons on the 3.x windows. Some examples of Action Menu items are: Linked Documents, Last Modified, Authorize, Tracking, Estimates, Add a Favorite. These Action Menu items will change based on the window that is Active. Be sure to scroll down to see all items on the Action Menu for popular windows such as Work Order.

10 Utilizing the Fast Find feature in WebTMA
Fast Find saves clicks and keystrokes when you know all or part of the record identifier The field is visible on windows that include a required, unique identifier such as a sequential record number or one-of-a-kind name Look for the Fast Find field on the Navigation pane above the Action Menu. You can recognize it by the  magnifying glass icon. Simply enter a character string that is applicable to a record's unique identifier, such as a work order number, and get immediate results. Fast Find saves clicks and keystrokes when you know all or part of the record identifier. The field is visible on windows that include a required, unique identifier such as a sequential record number or one-of-a-kind name, for example, PO number or building name. Typically, only one field is eligible for a Fast Find search. Hold your cursor over the field for a tool tip that lists the field or fields that can be searched. To use Fast Find: 1. Type a character string in the field. 2. Press Enter. If you enter a complete ID, WebTMA immediately opens the record. If you enter a partial character string, WebTMA returns a Fast Find popup window that lists all records that contain the character string anywhere within the ID. Locate the desired record on the Fast Find popup, and double-click the line to open the record.

11 Single Task Work Order Path: Transactions > Work Order > Single Task Work Order This window is very similar to the regular Work Order window. If your organization typically creates work orders for a single task, use the Single Task Work Order window. It is designed for faster data entry. The difference between this window and the regular Work Order window is a Task field rather than a task grid. All work orders can be viewed in this window, but for multi-task work, a link above the task section alerts you to “Zoom to Multi-Task Work Order". When you click the link, the regular Work Order window opens to display all tasks for the work order.

12 Work Order Path: Transactions > Work Order > Records
In WebTMA, work orders are either Space-related or Item-related Work orders form the heart of WebTMA transactions. A work order can be created whenever you need to track work done, such as regular or preventive maintenance, special projects, or repairs caused by vandalism. If you include the following information on the Work Order window, it is also tracked on the Costs Tab of the related records (for example, building, equipment, floor, etc.): • labor costs • material costs • other charges • billing information In WebTMA, work orders are either • Space-related or • Item-related You select the focus of the work order. If you choose a location such as facility or building, the work order is space-related. If you select an item such as a piece of equipment, the work order is item-related. When you select an item, the associated location is added to the work order by default, but you can change this on the work order if an item is temporarily located in another place.

13 Work Order Browse Path: Transactions > Work Order > WO Browse
You can review Work Orders from the Work Order Browse window Filtering Options: - Item Type - Work Order Type - Open or Closed Work Orders - Scheduled or Not Scheduled - Task - Department - Trade - Technician Save Criteria/Query – Load Query Use the Work Order Query window to select the criteria for filtering work orders for review. Create a query using any combination of the options shown on the window. Sample queries include: • all open and closed orders for a given time period • all work orders assigned to a particular technician • open orders for a single repair center for one day WO Browse Selection Options Use options in each section of the Selection window to expand or restrict your search using any of the parameters such as specific item, date or date range, technician, open and/or closed work orders, and priority. Use the buttons at the bottom of the window to generate a list of work orders or clear your selections and make new ones.

14 Quick Work Order Path: Transactions > Work Order > Quick Work Order The Quick Work Order window is used to create and save a basic work order. The intent is to reduce a dispatcher's workload by granting technicians or other personnel limited access to WebTMA so they can write simple work orders. For example, technicians who notice a problem in the field can write up a work order. The Save and Cancel buttons are the only functions available on the WebTMA toolbar when the Quick Work Order window opens. If the Work Order Type has the Require General Comments check box marked, the technician is required to record comments about the work. When the technician selects a completion date on the Quick Work Order window and attempts to save, WebTMA automatically opens the Work Order General Comment popup. The technician cannot complete the transaction until text is entered in the window and saved. Once the record is saved, many field labels are underscored to indicate you can click the link and view the related record.

15 Printing Work Orders Print from Work Order Window
Print from WO Browse: Individual or List Two ways to print Work Orders You can print from the Work Order window or from WO Browse window. From WO Browse window, you can either print individual work orders (1 per page) or a list of work orders you selected (multiple Work Orders per page). Previously, a PRINT button at the bottom of the page accommodated printing. In version 5.0, the standard Print options are available using Print on the toolbar.

Select work orders you would like to schedule to the technician Select Technician Click on ‘Schedule’ button on the Action Menu to schedule the work orders to the technician you selected Review Other Records from Scheduler From the Scheduler window, you can open work order records and the technician's calendar in separate windows so the Scheduler window remains visible. To see the full work order, click the Work Order number in the upper pane. This is similar to other windows in WebTMA with underlined text that indicates linked records. When you click the work order number, WebTMA opens the Work Order window with the selected order displayed. The same is true for technicians listed in the lower right pane. Click the Name, and WebTMA opens the Technician Calendar window in the default Month view to show existing work orders assigned to the technician. Use the scheduler to assign work orders to technicians for both current and future work.

19 Review Assignments Path: Transactions > Time Manager > Review Assignments Use the Review Assignments function to change assignments when technicians call in sick, take vacation time, are called to different jobs, or when schedules change priority. The window operates in two phases: (1) Search for the assignments (2) Reassign the work This applies to open work orders only. Use the Review Assignments function to change assignments when technicians call in sick, take vacation time, are called to different jobs, or when schedules change priority.

22 Basic Reports – Report Manager Window
Path: Reports > Report Manager Quick View View Reports – Pre-designed Reports Filter Reports by Name Copy Report Add to My Report Click the Quick View button to print the report without displaying the Print Format popup. When you open the Report Manager window, WebTMA lists all the available reports. You can filter the list of titles from this view using filtering selections of Starts With, Ends With, and Contains. If you know the general category of the report such as Management, Materials, and Setup, you can select a category in the tree list on the left to reduce the size of the list. To filter a list: 1. Type the character or character string in the first field. 2. Select one of the filtering criteria. As soon as you select the criteria, the list displays any report titles that meet your requirements. To see the full list of all reports, select No Filter. The My Report section is used to store a copy of the reports you use frequently. Reports that appear in this section do not alter the originals, the section is simply a way to assemble a few system and Adhoc reports for easy access.
