- RTS Code
The VMRS (Vehicle Maintenance Repair Standards) Code (e.g. S27). These codes are set-up via Miscellaneous Options / Maintenance Codes Menu / VMRS Codes and are subsequently used to identify maintenance operations. Analysis of these codes is particularly important for commercial vehicles and may assist in identifying vehicle manufacturers/models which should be withdrawn from the fleet or have David Henley maintenance values adjusted.
- Description
The full description explaining the associated VRMS code e.g. Carry out 27,000 Mile Service.
A single-left-click of the mouse on any row within the grid presents a WIP Details form for review of any selected POS job record.
