Enter Parameters for Event Generation
Explanation
Use this activity to enter an event required to control the PM actions for which you want to generate work
orders. These actions can be generated when a specific event occurs. The PM actions with event generation, and
which fulfill the conditions, will automatically generate work orders.
To setup an event-based generation you need to define an event in the PM action page. When you add an event for
a PM action on the Maintenance Triggers tab in section Event, all connected date periods in status Planned or
Active will appear in the maintenance plan.
The PM actions that are set up for event generation and that fulfill the specified conditions will automatically
generate work orders.
Prerequisites
- PM Actions should be active and valid.
- An event for the PM action must have been defined.
- Date periods created for the event in Event page.
- Event date periods must be in status Planned or Active to appear as maintenance planning lines and be in
status Active to be part of an event generation.
System Effects
- As a result of this activity, work orders according to the event-based PM actions will be generated for the
specific event. The generation is done as a back ground job. All the generated work orders will be available for
further preparations along with other regular work orders. For more information, refer to the Work Order
from PM help file.
