Setting a Trigger for a PM Plan


After a PM plan has been set up and the appropriate service request templates and activity templates have been defined, you can set the trigger for a PM plan, which defines the type of plan and how the service interval is determined in Siebel eAutomotive. The following procedure is based on a mileage trigger for maintenance.

To set a trigger for a PM plan

  1. From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map >Preventive Maintenance > Preventive Maintenance.
  2. In the Plans list, select a PM plan.
  3. Click the Triggers view tab.
  4. To create new records in any of the views (Time Interval, Usage, Threshold, and Event), click New in that view.
  5. Enter values for the required fields in the list or form.
  6. NOTE:  PM plans can have any number of triggers of any type (Time Interval, Usage, Threshold, and Event).
