For example, if the value for the mode is SQL, and the value for the sub-mode is Assets&Plans, then the plan SQL and asset SQL arguments are needed.

The input parameters are called when invoking from code or from a component job. For more information about the parameters for this engine, see Parameters for the Preventive Maintenance Engine.
