Edit a Global Procedure

availability

This feature is only available in the MaintainX web application for Enterprise accounts. To use it, you must have a Global Leader user role. For details, see Global Leader.

This article explains how to edit a global procedure.

When a Global Leader edits a global procedure and publishes the changes, those changes are automatically applied to all sub-organizations. The procedure is updated in:

  • Each organization's procedure library.
  • All work orders that use the procedure and have their status set to Open.

If a global procedure is attached to work orders with any status other than Open, the changes are not applied to them, to maintain progress made on these work orders.

note

Only Global Leaders can edit global procedures. Organization Administrators can set local meters, tags, locations, and assets on shared global procedures - but they do not have permission to edit global procedures.
