This article explains how to use different views in the Parts module.

View Parts in the Web App​

The MaintainX web application has the following views:

  • Split View: shows a list of parts, and details about the selected parts side by side.
  • Table View: lists parts in a table where you can sort them and select them in bulk.

Split View​

To access the split view:

From the sidebar, select Parts Inventory. In the Parts Inventory module, select the (Split View) icon.

The list pane 1 shows the list of parts in your organization.

  • Use the Sort By option to choose how to see your parts listed.
  • You can add filters to choose how you want to see the parts listed.

You can also quickly see the number of parts you have in stock next to the part's name.

Need to Restock?

If the number of parts appears in red, it means the units in stock are below the part's minimum set quantity. This is a good indicator that you should consider ordering the part.

Select a part from the list to display the details pane 2. The details pane displays the parts form fields and additional inventory part fields for the selected part. For more information about parts form fields, see Parts Form Fields.

Additional Part Fields​

In the Details tab, there are a few fields that give you additional information on the part’s inventory.

FieldDescription
Minimum in StockNumber of units you want to keep in inventory at all times.

If the part is set as Critical and there is an escalation team set up, the escalation team receives an alert by email when this number drops below the set minimum.
Average Unit CostAverage cost per unit.

This value is used in the Time & Cost Tracking section when a part is used in a work order.
Part TypeCustom labels that you can apply to categorize parts. You can use this field for filtering and reporting.

Part types can also help alert escalation teams when the quantity of a Critical part in your inventory goes below the minimum level.

If you want escalation teams to be notified, make sure to add the Critical part type.
Available QuantityThe number of units you have in stock.

If you have units reserved for active work orders, you will see the number in parentheses in the following format:

(+X units assigned to active Work Orders).

Ordered QuantityThe number of units ordered through a purchase order that is in progress.

For more information about how to read additional part fields, see Understanding Part Quantities.

In the detail pane 2, the History tab lists all work orders where the part was used, and any inventory changes. For more information on work order history, see View Parts Data.

  1. From the sidebar, select Parts Inventory.
  2. In the Parts Inventory module, select the (Table View) icon.
