How to Read This Report​

Typically, you want to see whether the distribution of work orders across priority levels matches what you expect to see for your company. If it doesn’t, you can investigate further.

For example:

  • Too many high priority work orders could be a sign of a bigger problem, such as important assets that are failing frequently or need replacement.

  • Too many low priority work orders could indicate that your team is creating unnecessary work orders.

  • Too many high or low priority work orders could be a sign that your team doesn’t understand how to set priorities correctly for work orders, and needs training.

    In the Reporting Details tab, try grouping the results by Team or by Assignee to identify the teams or individuals who are setting priorities incorrectly.
