You can edit or add your own remarks in Uptick, of which there are two types:
Global remark types, which are applicable to any asset
Asset specific remark types, which only apply to the appropriate asset
This guide will cover how each can be set up.
Global remark types
To create and edit global remark types:
Click Control Panel > Edit global remark types
Under Add remark type, fill out the fields. Label, Description, Resolution are text fields and the last field is a drop-down list of severities.
Click Create Remark. The newly created global remark will be listed underneath. The Active checkbox will control whether or not the remark will be available when servicing.
Asset specific remark types
To edit existing remark types placed against an asset:
Click Control Panel > Asset types > View the asset type you want to add/edit remarks against
On the next page you can click Add remark type to add a new remark for this asset type, or click Edit next to an existing remark type to edit it.
