Enter Criteria for Event Generation

Explanation

Use this activity to enter criteria required for event-based generation of PM actions. Event-based generation gives you maintenance with PM actions that occur at different times, depending on a certain event, e.g., revision, breakdown, etc. When you create a new maintenance plan with event-based generation, specify at what point in the event you want the maintenance plan to start. You can then specify an interval for how often you want to perform the PM action when the event occurs, for example, every other time.

Prerequisites

Before the criteria is entered, the following must have been completed:

• Current PM action retrieved in the window.
• In Work Order and PM Basic Data, create event.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, a maintenance plan for specified event will be created.
