Hola!
I have gone through all 54 pages of this forum: but not knowing what I am looking for is making things just a tad more difficult!

I am trying to assemble "something" that will let the guys at the shop keep track of the equipment they work on.
MY thinking:
Equipment master form - need a seperate form for each type (Tractor, Trailer,Forklift, Light trucks, Compressors, ets...) as data needed is different for each and I would end up with too many blank fields if I tried to use one form. (I read that this wasn't a good idea.)
Work Order Form - A place to keep track of repairs, parts and Preventive Maintenance as well as history of same on any/all equipment. A form for each?
Scheduler? of some kind - To let the guys know when a piece of equipment is due for service, insurance /inspections coming due. I understand this is do-able with Sesame
Where to start?
Forms - As I enter each LE, should I 'format' (correct term?) it? ie: Combo box, list box, etc... restrictions, labels, names...
What about things like: if the Plate Number field is filled out, I want the Insurance expiry date noted in the next field. When, where and how do I do this?
Is there a workorder flow that I've missed somewhere?
I have been away from computers since 2000 and things have changed
