Record a Measurement
Goal: Log a new reading for an equipment measure — for example, the current running hours of an engine or the pressure of a system — outside of a scheduled round.
Before you start
- You must have permission to record measurements. If you don’t see the option, ask your fleet administrator.
- The equipment measure must already exist. See Set Up Equipment Measures.
Steps
Open Equipment Measures
-
From the main navigation, open PMS.
-
In the sub-navigation, select Equipment Measures.
The list shows all configured measures, with the last recorded value and date for each.

-
Press Enter or click outside the field to confirm.
For a full history of past readings or to add detailed notes to a measurement, click the row to open the equipment measure detail page instead.
Result
The new reading is saved with the current date and your user name. The Last Value and Last Date columns in the list update immediately. If any task is configured to trigger at this measurement threshold, the system will flag it accordingly.
