Work Accomplished Codes are an option which, when closing a Work Order Line, an accomplishment code can be attached. Accomplishment codes define the type of work that was completed by the mechanic on the job.

These codes are assigned at the Add/Edit a Work Order Line screen, and can be toggled from the System Switch Main# 40:

In order to define the Work Accomplished code, there must be labor applied to the Work Order Line. If labor is applied and the WO is closed, the following screen will prompt (both in WW and in Paperless Shop)

Work Accomplished Codes can be filtered and viewed through the Advanced Report View RNWL after a Work Order Line has been closed and assigned an accomplish code.

The Repair Type code defines the type of Work Order repaid. The Repair Type status along with the asset difficulty/size factor (MVM, MRM) determines the estimated hours to complete the job.

When a Work Order line is created, the repair type can be added beneath the VMRS code. If the repair type is edited, the estimated time can change. For example, checking a Battery will likely be faster than replacing one. Repair type can also be used to identify jobs that have been created due to a PM or Pre-trip inspection under the type: PMRPR (PM Repair). This tells the user that the work was found as a preventative measure vs. reactive. You caught an issue before it became an issue.

Indirect Labor codes are used with the Paperless Shop module of RTA and can be labeled from the System Codes. These codes are identified by a 2-digit code, description and up to 2 abbreviations.

Indirect codes are used when a mechanic is on the clock, but not currently posting their time towards a particular vehicle or work order line. These codes can be used to properly track mechanic accountability against downtime.

Once a mechanic is logged into Paperless shop, one of the options is titled “Indirect Labor”. When clocked onto an Indirect job, a mechanic’s productivity will fluctuate between direct, indirect and downtime. These details can be reviewed on the Indirect Labor Report (REI).
