Asset Meters
Asset Meters are meters that pertain to the usage of a particular piece of equipment. Examples of asset meters include tracking mileage on a vehicle or runtime hours on a piece of machinery. *Note: If a meter reading is recorded that is outside the designated range or above the set increment, a work order may automatically generate if a meter based scheduled work order was created. We recommend testing and correcting any issues with the meter promptly, as additional readings outside the designated range or above the set increment will generate additional work orders.
