Point of Rental Elite Introduces Work Orders for POR One
Any rental business using work orders to manage its maintenance processes can now do so securely, and remotely with Work Orders for Point of Rental One.
“The Work Orders workflow will help get your rented items operational again more quickly. It makes it easier to diagnose and document problems in the field, so you can order parts and other materials sooner,” said product manager John Wooten. “Not only will it work for those internal items, but it also handles external work orders, so you can more easily service customer-owned equipment.”
Mobile users can use Work Orders to create internal repair, maintenance, and service orders. But Work Orders can assist many different rental employees:
· Technicians, who currently spend time stepping away from the work bay to access their software.
· Equipment yard personnel, who can instantly create a work order if an item fails its Ready Tag inspection.
· Delivery drivers, who can mark an item as needing service during a pick-up.
· Anyone using work orders in Point of Rental today who can see this info in their mobile device.
Work Orders is the first feature of Point of Rental One’s Advanced feature tier, which extends the platform for businesses needing additional, specific mobile functionality.
