Beyond an Electronic Logbook
Beyond an Electronic Logbook Larrieu, Theodore L. and McGuckin, Theodore S. The advantages of an electronic logbook over a paper logbook have been well-established by presenters at various conferences: multiple simultaneous access, readily attached supporting documentation, easy searchability. At Jefferson Lab, we view these benefits as a start rather than an end. Instead of a being a static repository for operational history, the electronic logbook should actively inform machine operations. We take advantage of a decision early in development to make our operational problem reporting system integral to the electronic logbook. Log entries requiring attention of system experts are dispatched directly from within the logbook. And more importantly, the follow-up and resolution of those same problems is also captured in the electronic logbook. The interface for making log entries is being extended to query the logbook database immediately when a new problem report is initiated
