FMEA Templates

About Values Mapped from an FMEA Template to Asset Strategy Template

When you promote an FMEA template to an ASM template, several fields in the Asset Strategy Template family are populated with the fields that are mapped from RCM FMEA Template family.

Note: Some of the fields listed in the table are not available on any of the datasheets that are configured for the RCM FMEA Template and Asset Strategy Template family.

The following table lists the field mappings:

About This Task

Procedure

  1. Access the analysis which you want to save as a template.
  2. In the workspace, select .

    The RCM FMEA Template window appears.

  3. As needed, modify the values in the available fields.
  4. Select .
    The analysis is saved as a template.

Access a Template

Procedure

  1. Access the FMEA Overview page.
  2. In the workspace, select the Templates tab.
    The Templates section appears, displaying a list of Templates.

  3. Select the Template that you want to access.
    The datasheet for the selected template appears.

    Tip: If needed, modify values in the available fields.

Procedure

  1. Access the FMEA Overview page.
  2. In the page, select New Template.
    The Template Builder window appears.

  3. Select Next.
    The Select Template Type screen appears.

  4. Select the template type you want to apply, and then select Next.

  6. As needed, enter values in the available fields, and then select Finish.
    The new Template is added.

Use the Apply Template Builder

Before You Begin

The template with which you are creating a new Analysis must be associated with at least one RCM FMEA Asset record.

Procedure

  1. Access the analysis.
  2. In the workspace, select .
    The Apply Template Builder window appears.

  3. Select Next.
    The Select Template screen appears.

  4. Select the template that you want to apply, and then select Next.

  5. Select Select Replacements.
    The Asset Finder window appears.

  6. Select the asset that you want to use, and then select Done.
    The Asset Assignment screen appears, displaying the selected asset.

  7. Select Finish.
    The selected template is applied to the analysis and will be listed in the Analysis Details pane at the analysis level (Asset or Failure Mode) that you selected.

Promote an FMEA Template to ASM

About This Task

Promoting an FMEA analysis and asset template to an ASM template creates risks and actions in a new strategy template from corresponding failure effects and Recommended Actions in an FMEA template, respectively. Additionally, when you make subsequent changes to the original FMEA template, you can also promote those changes to the strategy template.

Procedure

  1. Access a Template that you want to promote to ASM.
    Note: You can promote only Global templates to ASM.
  2. In the workspace, select .
    A message appears, asking you to confirm that you want to promote all of the pending Recommended Actions to ASM.
  3. Select Yes.
    A progress indicator appears. Once the process is complete, the date and time of the last promotion appears.
    Note: If the process cannot be completed, an error message appears.
