Why create an element?
Over time, new elements may be added to your equipment. These new elements may or may not be subject to regulation, and must be taken into account to ensure your tracking in Ealico matches what's actually present on your site.
How do I create an element?
Tip: for this step, have the technical specifications on hand (nameplate, manufacturer's file, etc.) for the element you want to create.
To create an element, simply:
Click on "Elements"
Click on the "Create an element" button
3. Choose the desired "Element type"
Note: the element creation form is generated based on the element type selected.
4. Fill in the element's data (common characteristics, manufacturer data, operator data, latest inspections carried out, etc.)
5. Click on "Create"
Note: if a required field is left blank, you won't be able to create the element. You'll see the message "Error, invalid form, please correct the errors and try again." Only the draft status lets you create an element without filling in all required fields, however, it won't be subject to any regulatory deadline.
