How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Maintenance Due Date Reachedtrigger

The automation platform monitors the maintenance schedule and triggers when a machine's due date arrives or passes.

2. Check Maintenance Status

The automation queries the maintenance database to confirm the machine is due and retrieve its service history and technician assignment.

3. Send Reminder to Technician

A notification is sent to the assigned maintenance technician with the machine name, location, service type, and due date.

4. Create Calendar Event

A calendar event is automatically created with the maintenance details, assigned to the technician, and set with a reminder.

5. Log Service Completion

When the technician marks the task complete or via a form, the automation records the completion date, work performed, and next due date.

6. Calculate Next Due Date

The system automatically calculates the next maintenance due date based on the service interval and updates the schedule.

7. Send Confirmation to Manager

A summary email is sent to the facilities manager confirming the service was logged and showing the updated maintenance calendar.

8. Update Record

The maintenance record is updated with all service details, completion status, and next due date for future reference.
