How to Use The Due List Filter Bar

How to use the “Due” list filter bar? 

The due list filter bar

Users familiar with our previous version of TM Master (v.1.79) will probably recognize the filter bar. This is one of the features that have been almost directly transferred into our new version of TM Master (v2). 

[Refresh]: In order to retrieve any due jobs or apply any of the filters set in the “due filter bar” you will need to click the [Refresh] button found on the far right hand side, in the filter bar. You can use as many of the filters as you wish to narrow the job list to exactly the jobs you are looking for.

[Reset]: To reset the filter settings back to default, you can select and delete each individual filter, or you can click the [Reset] button, found to the far right (under the [Refresh] button) to reset the filter to its default settings.  

Job count in Due header ribbon

You will find the total amount of jobs listed in the due list at any time in the header ribbon, if a job has both a running hour interval and a date interval that are due they will be listed twice in the due list. These jobs will appear as “doubles” in the total count.

Due date: By default the only value set in the filter bar is todays date, so if you do not make any changes to the filter bar, but simply click the [Refresh] button all jobs currently due today or already overdue will be listed in the due job grid. By setting the “Due date” ahead in time, all jobs that will are or become due within that date will be listed.

% Prewarning: Using the prewarning filters will also list jobs which almost are due.  Entering a percentage numerical value in this field and clicking the [Refresh] button will list all the jobs that are due within the entered percentage. Keep in mind that the percentage for a yearly job is much higher than for a weekly job, so even if the job appears in the Due list using this filter it may be weeks or months until they become due.

Hour prewarning:  This filter will only apply to jobs which has an interval based upon running hours. Enter a numerical value will list all the current due jobs, and the running hour jobs that are due within the set running hour Prewarning value.

Department: In this filter setting a list of all departments can be found. Selecting a department and then clicking the [Refresh] button will list all Due jobs that have been assigned to this department.

Job type: In this selection box all the systems different job types are listed, selecting a job type and then clicking the [Refresh] button will list all due jobs of the selected type.

Code from – to: Will enable you to filter jobs on certain components. If only the due jobs on the main engines are of interest enter the lowest component code (.e.g. 651) and the next component code of no interest (e.g. 652). Click [Refresh] and only due jobs for the components within the given range are listed in the due list.

Category: This selection box will list all the systems “Job categories”, and selecting one and clicking the [Refresh] button will list only due jobs in the selected category.

Priority: This selection box will list all the systems “Priorities”, and selecting one and clicking the [Refresh] button will list only due jobs with the selected priority.

Assigned: This selection box will list all the systems “Crew types”, and selecting a “crew type” in this selection box and clicking [Refresh] will list all due jobs that has been assigned to the selected crew type.

Interval type selector:  By default both hour and date interval jobs are included in the due list. By ticking either “Only running hours” or “Only time based” you can exclude one of the interval types from the due list.

Postponed: Ticking this check box and clicking the [Refresh] button will list all jobs that have been postponed. If you look at the “Due date” filter selector, when this filter setting has been ticked, you will see that the due date setting has been deactivated. So using this filter will show all postponed jobs regardless of their due date.

Critical: Ticking this filter setting will list only due jobs that are considered “Critical”

Include projects: Using this will also include “Due Projects” in the due list. More details on projects are found in the chapter “Projects”.

Only Class jobs: Using this filter setting will only list due class jobs.

Include est. RH-due:  When adding running hours to a component, the system will calculate the average daily use for that component. By using this average value the system will try to predict the date when running hour jobs will become due. By ticking this setting in the filter bar, jobs that have an estimated due date will also be included in the due list, if the estimated due is within the selected “Due date”.

All jobs: Ticking this check box will deactivate all other filter settings and all jobs found in the system regardless of due date will be listed.  

In addition to these filters, users can of course also use the filter functions and grouping functions that applies to all grids within Tm Master v2.
