Lubricant Records

This topic provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist for the Lubricant family. The information in the table reflects the baseline state and behavior of these fields. This list is not comprehensive.

Lubricant records serve as a means for organizing all the lubricants that are used by your company. When you create a Lubricant record, the values that you enter in these fields will be used to populate the corresponding lists on the Lubrication Requirement datasheet, where you can select the necessary values from a list.

This family is enabled for site filtering, which means that records in this family can be assigned to a specific site, and will then only be accessible to users who are assigned to the same site and have the appropriate license and family privileges. See the Site Filtering section of the documentation for more information on using this feature.

Field	Data Type	Description	Behavior and Usage
Description	Character	Description of the lubricant.	You can enter a value in this field.
Flash Point	Numeric	Flash point of the lubricant.	You can enter a value in this field.
Flash Point UOM	Character	The unit of measurement of the Flash point of the lubricant.	On the datasheet, this field appears as a list that is populated by the MI_LUBRICANT_REFERENCES system code table.
