> Datastream 7i Modules

The following table outlines the different Datastream 7i modules and their functions:

Module	Function
Asset Management	Identifies, tracks, locates, and analyzes physical assets Associates documents, permits, and other data with assets
Barcode	Facilitates issuing of parts and part labels using hand-held devices
Base	Prerequisite for all other modules Provides system administration functions
Budget Management	Automates the process of setting up budgets and the subsequent capture, monitoring, control, and analysis of expenditures associated with maintenance work Provides a link between the financial structure of the enterprise, its organizational structure, and the physical asset hierarchies Calculates a variety of financial and performance indicators
Commercial Services	Enables maintenance organizations that operate as business units to charge the cost of maintenance work to the customers
Calibration Management	Enables you to maintain calibration data to ensure the accuracy of your equipment Coordinates the Asset Management module with the Work Management module by enabling you to create and edit calibration information in the Asset Management module and then create calibration work orders and enter the actual calibration data in the Work Management module
Data Collection	Tracks the movement of goods for asset and maintenance management, using barcode Includes equipment audit capability, enabling you to audit assets in the field and then update Datastream 7i with the results of the audit
Inspection Management	Manages condition-based maintenance by defining inspection points belonging to one or more assets and calculates remaining life through risk-based inspections (RBI) Executes inspection jobs ad hoc, triggered by time frequency and/or meters (calendar or meter-based inspection) or generally based on previous inspection results (condition-based inspections)
Materials Management	Streamlines part and material management by constantly monitoring inventory online Allocates materials to work orders and automatically generates pick lists for materials Identifies items that need to be requisitioned based on existing stock levels, forecasts, and current reservations
MS Project Interface	Facilitates work order scheduling and resource assignment by allowing you to schedule work and resources in MS Project and then update the Datastream 7i database with the information.
Project Management	Allows large projects to be divided into more manageable subprojects, assigning individual work order activities to each step Computes actual costs, committed costs, and planned costs of projects
Purchasing Management	Computes the cost of services using either fixed prices or time and materials Controls purchase order and invoice matching processes for stocked materials, direct materials, hired labor, and services Registers standard contracts and blanket orders with vendors, along with their financial agreements and conditions Monitors the progress of quotations for materials and services Maintains a library of standard ISO clauses
Report Manager	Provides database views of Datastream 7i data and works with external report applications such as Oracle Report, Oracle Data Browser, SQLPlus, and SQLQMX
Work Management	Controls work order processes for routine maintenance, response maintenance, and preventive maintenance Stores material and task lists in a library for easy reference and retrieval Determines cause and effect relationships and provides a full range of diagnostic tests Generates invoices for work performed on "third-party" assets
Workflow	Streamlines quotations, requisitions, purchasing, and work request/work order processes using the Oracle Workflow Engine
