> Defining Tools as Parts or Equipment

Define tools either as parts or as pieces of equipment. Define tools as equipment if they are tracked by asset and have maintenance carried out on them. Define tools as parts if they are in a group of parts that fulfill the same maintenance function. For example, if several types of chainsaws exist, define them as parts.

 

   Datastream 7i does not cross-check whether the stock quantities of the tool match the available quantities as defined on the Tool page of the Departments form (BNMRCS).
