Methos 16.0 has been Released

The new version of Methos has been made available for general release. Some of the changes include:

  • PM Task Triggers at the Step Level - This change allows for creating a single PM Task with 4 steps to handle the yearly Preventative Maintenance for a machine. Each step has its own Due Date and Frequency and the steps can combine as the Due Dates sync up.
            - Step 1 could be the Monthly processing.

            - Step 2 could be the Quarterly processing.

            - Step 3 could be the Semi-annual processing.

            - Step 4 could be the Annual processing.

  • Initiate PM Tasking Run by Parent Equipment ID - This change allows for Sourcing just the PM Tasks for Equipment of a single Parent (LINE ONE for example).

  • Mandatory Processing in Quick WO Complete - The new Quick WO Processing from WO Maintenance (option 39) allows for Techs to quickly enter Time, Parts and Notes. Methos can now make certain options (Notes for example) mandatory entry so a Tech cannot skip a step.
