Asset Management
The asset management master file is a single source of information with regards to historical, operational and financial information. The asset management master file can be used for storing information such as asset type or warranty, cost center department or other financial dimensions to which maintenance expenses are to be posted, and much more.

Work Orders
With work order management, Dynamics Utility Asset Management provides accurate information about future preventive maintenance as well as ad-hoc maintenance. Dynamics Utility Asset Management serves as a central point of information where your employees can keep relevant work order status updated. Having accurate information available lets you monitor and track the open work order effectively and efficiently.

Preventive Maintenance & Scheduling
Planned and preventive maintenance work orders offer great flexibility in managing different types of maintenance activities. Dynamics Utility Asset Management offers full flexibility in defining maintenance schedules for preventive maintenance. Preventive work orders can be generated automatically. Just like ad-hoc work orders, the preventive work orders will appear in the to-do list of the maintenance planner to be assigned to the technicians or engineers.

Day-to-Day Process
The day-to-day service process is all about maintaining the infrastructure in a cost-efficient way while being able to act upon incoming requests Utility Asset Management supports the field service processes as well as the processes required for the workshop repair process. The Work Order is the first step in the day-to-day process. Once the Work Order is created the next step in the process starts with the creation of a task.

Mobile Field Service
Dynamics Mobile Field Service successfully closes the loop between field workers, Dynamics Utility Asset Management and your customers. We mobilize your core business processes to give field personnel and office-based workers real-time access to enterprise systems whether they work on a laptop or a mobile device. Dynamics Mobile Field Service includes: viewing work orders, start and stop tasks, navigate to the customer location, adding materials and return hours.
