Action Types

Conquest provides a number of different Action Types, which control the behaviour of Actions. The following table describes each Action Type and its behaviour:

Action Type

Behaviour

Unscheduled

This is the simplest form of Action and is intended to be used for reactive work.

Scheduled

For use with Actions that have been generated as part of a planning process, as in Conquest RSM.

Purchase

Can only be created on Proposed Assets and are for the purpose of recording and capitalising the value of the Asset. The Action Completion process changes the Asset’s status from Proposed to Existing.

New Works

Represent Capital Works and can be applied to Existing or Proposed Assets. When the Asset is Proposed, Completing the Action, changes its status to Existing.

Disposal

Dispose of all or part of an existing Asset and record the financial information of its; sale, demolition or decommissioning.

Log book

Created based on the usage of an Asset, which has been recorded in a log book.

Cyclic

Created based on a predefined frequency for an Asset Type.

Repeatable

Created based on a predefined frequency for an Asset.

Planned

For work based on the forecast deterioration of an Asset in the Conquest RSM. Applies purely to Standard Actions for the RSM and is not available for Actions.

Master

To group other Actions, making them into Sub-Actions, to be managed together

 

Purchase, New Works and Disposal Actions can only be processed on Valuation Assets because of their impact on financial value. See How To Manage Financial Data for more detail on Action Based Valuation processes.
