Updating PM Schedules Globally

You can globally add, change, or delete PM schedules. You specify the service type that you want to change and enter information about the equipment for which you want the changes to apply.

You can also make global revisions to a group of PM service types. You narrow the list of equipment for which you want the revisions to apply by using any combination of the first ten equipment category codes. For example, for any service type, you can:

• Change the service interval.

• Revise the schedule date.

• Revise the maintenance priority.

• Revise the procedure number.

• Assign a different model work order number.

• Revise the value in the Occurrences field.

• Revise the frequency indicator.

• Revise the multiple work order code.

You also can create PM schedules for multiple pieces of equipment with similar maintenance requirements that you place in service.

The Global PM Schedule Update program immediately updates the Maintenance Schedule File table (F1207), depending on the information that you change. Consider these guidelines when you update PM schedule information:

• If you enter a schedule date, the system removes all other meter service intervals.

• If you enter a meter service interval, the system removes the schedule date.

• If you enter a schedule date and a frequency indicator, the system removes any existing service days.

• If you enter a schedule date and service days, the system removes the existing frequency indicator.
