Database Creation and Administration

Distances are recorded within a log provided for that purpose. The distances are used for reporting purposes and for service scheduling.

A distance log entry is quite simple. The Start ODO reading is set by the system based upon the previous End ODO reading. The current End ODO reading is entered and from this data the distance travelled is calculated.

From this data the system builds up a history of equipment usage. For example the log above shows a gradually deteriorating usage of the equipment item, possibly due to service requirements, possibly declining work.

The data for the Distance Log may be entered manually or alternatively may be imported from another entity if this is required and the party is able to export the data for you to import.
