Preventive Maintenance Triggers

Preventive Maintenance triggers initiate processes in Field Service to plan and schedule routine service activities. The Preventive Maintenance Engine responds to triggers and plans service activities. The Optimization Engine can schedule these activities (see Best Practice: Preventive Maintenance and the ABS).

There are five types of triggers for preventive maintenance plans: Time Interval, Date, Usage, Threshold, and Event. Topics include:

• Logic Governing Triggers
• Time Interval Triggers
• Date Triggers
• Usage Triggers
• Threshold Triggers
• Event Triggers
