The administration module is used to set up the information required through out the program. All administration modules are used throughout AMPRO to assist with cataloguing and ease of data entry.

Cost Centres can be assigned to Jobs for the purpose of tracking costs against a budget. By preparing your Cost Centres prior to commencing allows you to prepare your reporting at the end of each reporting period.

A Cost Centre linked to an asset will be used as the default Cost Centre for any jobs created for that asset; from here you will have the opportunity to use the default for the asset or the cost centres assigned to the Labour and Inventory.

You can assign budgets to all Cost Centres for different years.

As you add Labour and / or Inventory to Jobs, the amounts are recorded against the appropriate Cost Centre which you can at any time report on how much you have spent against each Cost Centre.

The Assets module is the principal module in AMPRO. Use it to improve the way you currently manage your assets and see, through the relationships between the modules, how easy it is to have all the information in one central location.

Create Rules for automatically linking your assets to Recurring Jobs. When you add new assets they are automatically linked to any Recurring Jobs where the asset has met the Rule criteria.

Link your Recurring Jobs together to create parent-child relationships. Ideal for assets that have services due at different frequencies. E.g. you may have a 3 month, 6 month and 1 year service that needs to be performed on your asset. By linking these three (3) services together, if more than one (1) service becomes due around the same time, the higher frequency service will suppress the lower frequency service.

Add Instructions, Labour Resources and Inventory to the Recurring Job and have them brought over to the Job when it is created.

Optionally have your due Jobs automatically generated when you start AMPRO.
