3 Introduction It is assumed that you have already reviewed the MainOpsStaff-2ed User Manual and are familiar with the screens, toolboxes and interfaces. It is also assumed that you know how to start MainOpsStaff-2ed and how to run in Full Feature Mode. In this training manual we will learn to enter and import your space inventory data into MainOpsStaff-2ed. You will perform exercises in this manual and then experiment on your own to get a good understanding of the features you will be using. We will use Chapter 3 of the APPA Operational Guidelines for Educational Facilities, Maintenance Second Edition (Guidelines) publication for some of our exercises. This training manual will be expanded as we receive feedback from users. Data Entry Exercises Even if you purchased the justdonext Data Import Wizard to import your space inventory data it is still a good idea to get familiar with MainOpsStaff-2ed data entry process. Understanding the MainOpsStaff-2ed data entry process will help you maintain your data going forward and assist you in manipulating your data for producing reports and data subsets. MainOpsStaff-2ed is an Excel workbook (running under the VBA programming language). Therefore, entering data is much the same as it would be in any other Excel workbook. However, because strict worksheet structure and formatting must be maintained some normal Excel actions are performed through MainOpsStaff-2ed command button in the toolboxes or through Right-Click shortcut menus. Exercise A1 Manually Entering a Row of Data 1. Start MainOpsStaff-2ed and run in Full Feature Mode. 2. Click Maintained Space Inventory button. 3. Click in first row under the second column (Building column). 4. Type Admin Bldg 100 and hit your keyboard Tab key. 5. Type 1 for first floor and hit the Tab key. 6. Type 100 for room 100 and hit the Tab key. 7. Type 300 or select it from the in-cell dropdown list for the space FICM code and hit the Tab key. Observe that the FICM Description and APPA Maintenance Type is automatically populated. 8. Type 350 for the space GSF and hit the Tab key. Observe that the APPA Estimated is populated based on Figure 3.3: Net Assignable to Gross Square Feet Factor on page 36 of the Guidelines. Also observe that the Maintenance Worker Adjusted FTEs column is automatically populated. 9. Type Zone-1 for the zone location of the building in the Flex Field 1 column and hit the Tab key. 10. Type Administration for the building owning department in the Flex Field 2 column and hit the Tab twice to start the next row. Exercise A2 Coping Single Cells 1. Click in Row-1, Building column. 2. Right-Click and select Records and then select Copy Cell. 3. Drag through Row-2 through Row-5 in Building column to select 4 rows. 4. Right-Click inside the selected rows and select Paste Cell. 5.

21 Working With Entire Campus Space Inventory for Hunter Community College For this training section the fictitious Hunter Community College (HCC). While the data is similar to that of an actual client for which Hunter Consulting and Training performed a facilities management consulting project, it is not intended to represent any particular institution and is strictly for training purposes. Here as a few pieces of information about HCC: HCC has an official space inventory data set including FICM codes. HCC either manually entered their 3,890 spaces into the Maintained Space Inventory worksheet or they purchased the justdonext Data Import Wizard upgrade from the Hunter Consulting and Training web site and imported their data from a spreadsheet. They might have done a combination of manual input and importing. HCC has 15 campuses located in the same metropolitan area. HCC is interested in properly staffing and funding the entire HCC system and ensuring that resources are properly allocated among the campuses. Exercise C1 Open the HCC Data File Into MainOPsStaff-2ed The objective of this exercise is to open an existing MainOpsStaff-2ed data file using the HCC training file HCC Space Inventory-HEMS-Data.xls located in the C:\MainOpsStaff Data folder. There are two option or opening files. 1.

If the file already exists you will be prompted to confirm that you want to over write it. 1. Ensure you have opened the HCC Space Inventory-HEMS-Data.xls file (see Exercise C1) 2. You have two options: a. Option 1: From the Main Menu click Save As button clear the File name input box type MyHCC Space Inventory (do NOT include the extension -HEMS-Data.xls) click Save button Yes read message click OK button. b. Option 2: From Maintained Space Inventory worksheet click File button click Save as File button clear the File name input box type MyHCC Space Inventory (do NOT include the extension -HEMS-Data.xls) click Save button Yes read message click OK button. Note: You will use your HCC Space Inventory-HEMS-Data.xls file for the remaining exercises. Exercise C3 Applying Local Variables In The Configuration Form The objective of this exercise is to save the space inventory data in memory to a file under a different name. If the file already exists you will be prompted to confirm that you want to over write it. 1. Open the MyHCC Space Inventory-HEMS-Data.xls file you saved in the previous exercise. 2. While in the Maintained Space Inventory worksheet click Main Tool button if necessary to launch the Main Toolbox. Page 21 of 28 When in doubt, click for the nearest Help Button!

22 3. In the Main Toolbox click the Current Service Level button multiple times to set Service Level 3 observe in the top Total row of the worksheet that the Maint. Worker Adjusted FTEs number is In the Main Toolbox click Configuration button. 5. In the MainOpsStaff-2e Configuration Form observe the HCC Current Values for the local variables as in the screenshot to the right. 6. Observe the placeholder values in gray background to the right of the HCC values. 7. Note that HCC accepted the all placeholder values except Productive Minutes per day (421.2) and Days worked per year (213). 8. To set Productive Minutes per day to the placeholder value double-click on the placeholder value do the same for Days worked per year observe the value now match. 9. Observe the Adjusted FTEs are still HCC Original Values 10. To make your changes take effect click the Write Configuration Variable from Form button click Yes. 11. Observe that the Adjusted FTEs changes to Which mean is each worker came to work 250 day per year and perform 7 hours(420 minutes) of productive work HCC would only need workers. 12. To show the effect of these two variables: Change Productive Minutes per day to 210 (half of 420) click Write Configuration Variable from Form button click Yes observe Adjusted FTEs is now or twice as many change it back to 420 click Write Configuration Variable from Form button click Yes. Change Days worked per year to 125 (half of 250) click Write Configuration Variable from Form button click Yes observe Adjusted FTEs is now or twice as many change it back to 250 click Write Configuration Variable from Form button click Yes. 13. Save the file as My Exercise C3. Note: The Remaining Local Variables do not affect the FTE calculations, however they do impact the estimate budget calculations and are adjusted in the same manner. You will see their impact in later exercises. Exercise C4 Setting the Flex Fields Name and Type The objective of this exercise is to demonstrate the capability of customizing the two Flex Fields. Observation in the Form and in the worksheet headings that in the HCC data Flex Field 1 is named Local Space Description and set to be a Text field and Flex Field 2 is named Campus and also set to be a Text field. We will change them. 1. Open the My Exercise C3-HEMS-Data.xls file you saved in the previous exercise. 2.

Observe that the Local Description changes in the worksheet heading row. 6. In the Main Toolbox to save your work click File button click Save button click Yes click OK. Exercise C6 Setting The Size Input Mode (Unit of Measure) For Space Size (GSF or ) The objective of this exercise is to demonstrate the capability of setting whether your data is primarily in Gross Square Feet (GSF) or primarily in Net Assignable Square Feet (). HCC chose to enter space GSF as its primary size unit. In some instances only Net Assignable Square Feet () might be available. We will switch to and from these two modes. 1. While in the Maintained Space Inventory worksheet Find the Size (GSF) and APPA Estimated column headings and observe the numbers in both columns. Size (GSF) is currently in Column 6 and APPA Estimated is in Column 11. Column 6 will always be the Size input column. 2. In the Main Toolbox click Configuration button click to check the checkbox click Write Configuration Variable from Form button observe the worksheet while you click Yes. 3. Observe that the numbers in Column 6 and Column 11 have now switched positions and Column 6 heading is now Size () and Column 11 heading is now APPA Estimated.
