Step 1.   Open an Asset Type in the Asset Type Form

Step 2.   Click the New > Standard Inspection Task, to create an empty Standard Inspection for you to flesh out

Step 3.   Give it an appropriate name

Step 4.   If you want to record workflow data specific to your organisation, do so by selecting a preconfigured Asset Inspection, Attribute Set. See How To Maintain Defect Attribute Sets for details

Step 5.   If it’s applicable, select a Standard Action to be the default for your new Standard Defect, so that both a Defect and an Action are created, when the Standard Defect is used to create a Defect

Step 6.   Click Save

Things to be aware of:

Standard Defects on Asset Types, are used again and again as “Templates” for the subsequent creation of Defects on Assets, which offers you these benefits:

•      Less data entry

•      Standardisation of data

•      Accuracy of standard data
