Information sources are a combination of facts and dimensions which are
structured and holds information about a specific transaction table in IFS
Applications. Currently there are 3 information sources based on IFS
Maintenance. One or many of these information sources can be used when
creating an IFS Business Analytics report.
An overview of each information source which is
mainly based on IFS
Maintenance, is given
below:
General Description
Work Order Actuals Information Source is based on the postings for work
that has been performed on work orders. This
information source carries transactions for time reporting, material issues,
tools usages, expenses like travel expenses and external cost from
purchasing. Revenue figures from work order driven work is also part of this
Information Source.
Reports/Analysis
Following are some report examples that might be created based on this Information Source:
- Division of maintenance costs on corrective maintenance and preventive
maintenance respectively
- Calculation of cost and revenues on service contracts
- Division of maintenance costs between internal maintenance organizations
and external costs per supplier
- Maintenance costs and revenues per customer
- Work Order costs and revenues per program, project, subproject and/or
project activity

General Description
Work Order Information Source is based on work orders. This information
source carries work orders in all statuses, i.e both active and historical
work orders as well as work requests and fault reports.
Reports/Analysis
- Follow up on the count of work orders based on different dimensions,
for instance status, maintenance organization and time period
- Execution time on work orders
- Waiting time before work actually started
- How many work orders originated as fault reports
- Comparison between actual start dates/actual finish dates versus
other dates on the work order
Access Types
- DataMart
- Online
Specific Attributes
- Work Order Count
Counter used to count work orders.
This is always set to 1 (one).
- Elapsed Execution Time
The difference between Actual
Finish Date and Actual Start Date, expressed in hours.
The work time calendar associated with the
maintenance organization on the work order is used to get working hours,
i.e this measure counts real working hours, not calendar time.
This can be used to calculate for instance MTTR (Mean Time To Repair).
- Elapsed Waiting Time
The difference between Actual Start
Date and Date Created on the work order, expressed in hours.
The work time calendar associated with the
maintenance organization on the work order is used to get working hours,
i.e this measure counts real working hours, not calendar time.'
This can be used to calculate for instance MWT (Mean Waiting Time).
- Originated From Fault
This is set to 1 (one) if the work
order was registered as a Fault Report or Work Request, otherwise it is
set to 0 (zero).
This can be used to compare the total number of work orders with those
that are faults to get a fault ratio.
- Late Actual vs. Late Start

to be finished on time (based on planned execution time).

contractual commitment.
