Define Maintenance Program
Explanation
This activity is used to define the general data for a maintenance program.
Only one revision of a maintenance program can be
active at any given point in time. When you set a new revision of a maintenance
program active, an informational message will appear reminding you that the
current active maintenance program will be set to obsolete, and give you the
possibility to cancel the action.
A part number may be defined for more than one active
maintenance program. This gives the opportunity to define different maintenance
intervals for serials with the same part number. The same maintenance program
may influence a part number having different maintenance groups.
Documents may be connected to a maintenance program.
