Schedules (service intervals)

What it’s for — a service schedule is a rule like “service this crane every 250 crane-hours” (or every N months). When a machine hits the interval, Craneye raises the maintenance work order for you — so preventive service never slips through the cracks.

When you’d use it — set one up per machine when you know its service intervals; after that it runs itself.

The Service schedules screen

Open Schedules from the sidebar. You add schedules here; they then feed the Maintenance work-order list.

One rule per machine per service type. 'Run schedules now' on the Maintenance page raises any that are currently due.

How to add a service schedule

  1. Pick the machine the schedule is for.

  2. Choose the kind of interval — e.g. every N crane-hours, or a calendar interval.

  3. Enter the interval (for example 250 crane-hours), a short description, the job type (planned/preventive service) and a priority.

  4. Click Add schedule. From now on, when the machine reaches the interval, a maintenance work order is raised automatically.

Common questions

  • Where do the raised jobs appear? In Maintenance as work orders, ready to plan and complete.
  • Is this the same as job scheduling? No — this is maintenance scheduling (service intervals). For which machine is booked on which customer job, see the dispatch board.
