Hierarchy location
A hierarchy location is a string of letters and numbers that identifies where the asset is in the physical hierarchy.
APM constructs a full hierarchy location using the code that you enter in the Hierarchy code box joined with the hierarchy codes for its parent/ancestors. The codes are separated by a period (.). Hierarchy locations are updated whenever the asset or one of its ancestors is moved within the hierarchy (or if a hierarchy code changes).

Status
Asset status represents the operational state of an asset and whether or not it is available for use. APM uses the status of an asset to determine whether or not work is triggered and whether or not components are available for installation. Sites can also use statuses, but these statuses are specific to sites and cannot be used for assets.
Status is particularly important for components because it reflects a component’s repair and availability status. For example, when a component is out of service, the status can also indicate whether the component is a spare and available for use, is in the shop for repair, is out for vendor repair, or has been scrapped.
When you change the status of a parent asset, the statuses of its children are also changed (provided the previous statuses of the assets were the same).

Production affected for
The length of time that production was affected. APM automatically enters the length of time from the start of the downtime incident until its end. You can change the duration if production was affected for longer or shorter than the length of time the asset was down.
See Also

Scheduled downtime
The length of time the asset was scheduled to be down, as planned on the PM job. APM enters this information automatically, but you can change it if necessary.
See Also

Unscheduled Downtime
The length of time the asset was down, over and above the time is was expected to be down on the PM job. APM calculates this information automatically.
See Also

Operating level
The percentage of regular production that was achieved during this downtime incident. If the downtime incident did not require a full stop of production, but did slow down production, enter the actual operating level during the downtime incident as a percentage. For example, if the asset normally processes 100 units per hour, but was only able to process 60 units per hour during the downtime incident, enter 60.

Calculate value and amount of lost production
When this option is selected, APM calculates the value and amount of lost production using the hours and operating level from the Details tab, as well as the assigned calculation.
