This paper is to help users, developers, managers, and executives of companies using Oracle Enterprise Asset Management (eAM) to explore work order printing capabilities native to Oracle eAM (11i and R12) and how to automatically print work orders and database attachments from Forms and Self Service with a single Concurrent request.

The inability to automatically print work orders and accompanying attachments from eAM is a significant pain for organizations. Companies waste thousands of personnel hours annually by printing work orders and then manually locating, printing and collating associated attachments that actually describe the work to be done. Not only is this multi-step process inefficient, but also increases the chances for users to make costly printing and collating mistakes, leaving workers in the field without the information they need.

With enhanced eAM print functionality you can eliminate a very manual and mistake prone process and enable your maintenance staff to spend more time on productive exercises and less time on clerical work.
