Can a maintenance ticket connect directly to a purchase request without duplicating records?

Yes. In Jestor, a maintenance ticket can be directly linked to a material purchase request using a relational data field, with no need to re-enter the same information across two different tables.

Why does relational data avoid rework between maintenance and purchasing?

Without a connection between tables, every time a maintenance ticket needed a part, someone would have to type in information that already exists elsewhere — creating rework and the risk of the two records drifting apart. By linking the tables, the data is registered once and reused wherever needed.

How to connect maintenance and purchasing in Jestor?

  1. Register the employee, client, or equipment once in the corresponding table.
  2. When opening a maintenance ticket, use a relational data field to link it directly to a material purchase request.
  3. Information about cleaning, reservations, and purchases cross-references automatically between the connected tables, with no workaround needed.
  4. Opening the person's or ticket's card shows the full history and connections in a single place.
