Change Interval Maintenance
Explanation
This activity is used to change an interval maintenance presented from the due
calculation. You can either change the calendar due date of the interval maintenance
or the due values. It is possible to perform the same interval
maintenance change on one or more child events (events representing replacement
maintenance codes) belonging to the selected parent
event. This is useful for instances where the child event is executed along with
the parent event.
There can be different reasons for changing the due date of a maintenance
event. The most common reason is that an event cannot be performed by the
calculated due date or value, e.g., due to lack of required materials. In such
cases, the authorities can grant a concession for extending the operation for a
given period of time.
Prerequisites
- The due calculation must be run.
- For a warning to be issued when the entered date/value is outside the
number of percent allowed, this percent has to be defined. For more
information, refer the online help file Verify or Adjust Default
Object Properties.
System Effects
As a result of this activity, the due date or value is changed for the
maintenance event and if selected, the child event(s).
