This activity is used to view and analyze calculated task card and material lists for both interval based maintenance and corrective maintenance. Note: task cards that are defined as slaves, i.e., duplicates of the master task cards, are not considered in the forecast calculation. Reason being that when events are executed on a maintenance order, the same task card is carried out once per serial.
For interval based maintenance, the forecast calculation can be viewed for vehicle and serial parts. The forecast calculation for corrective maintenance can only be viewed for vehicle parts. You can also view the calculated results by selecting the Forecast Result Info right mouse button option from either the Forecast Information window or the Vehicle Parts window.
