TABLE OF CONTENTS


Summary

  • Employee Certificates and Certificate Types are very straightforward database tables.
  • You can create any Certificate Type you like and add Certificates under those Types for each Employee.
  • A file (image or PDF, usually) can be attached to the Certificate card.
  • In the future, if a Certificate expires, it can trigger a Notification (configured in Notification Events Reference).
  • You can update the Certificate and keep the old document but upload a new one. The fields on the record, though, have to be changed to match the reissued cert.

Specify which Types of Certificates are required for different Types of Work Orders 

You can easily keep track of whether an employee has a particular certificate, and its expiry date when dispatching employees to a Site. To do this, specify which employee certificates are required in the relevant Work Order Types.


  1. Open a Work Order Type card and go to the Certificates tab.
  2. Add the required employee certificates to the table.
  3. In the Min of Crew Req column, enter the minimum number of certificate types required for the dispatch crews.
The system will warn you if you don't reach the minimum number of required certificates when you schedule dispatches for your crews.


Use dimensions such as Scenario, Carrier, Customer to track certificates for Dispatches under a specific scenario, customer, etc.






Certificates in Work Order card

The Certificate Types you add in the WO Type card will be populated in generated Work Orders of that type.

To populate certificates in existing Work Orders, use the Update Certificate option on the ribbon of the WO Type card.







Monitor Employee Certificates in the Dispatch Scheduling

In the web card of the Dispatch, you can see:

  • the types of certificates required
  • Who of the employees available for dispatch has the required certificate.




Certificates in a Dispatch are an additional but helpful detail. If you find that some of your current employees don't have the required certificates, you can still create and publish a Dispatch.
