Why Edit a Completed Preventive Maintenance and Work Order task?

Maintenance staff often move quickly between tasks and may need to update details, such as parts used or images, after completing the job. This feature allows for these updates, ensuring all relevant information is captured without creating new records.

SpindleLIVE CMMS Access

Edits can't be performed from the SpindLIVE Equipment Analysis or CMMS Analysis pages. While one page refreshes with the other, its primary purpose is to view historical data. 

While editing completed tasks is a new feature, accessing them has stayed the same. The links for CMMS Details and CMMS Calendar can provide further details. 

Click on the 4-Square icon associated with a PM or WO to edit.
