PM Schedule Out of Service Extension |
If equipment is out of service for an extended period of time, the PM schedule does not change. There are some services, however, for which extending the next due date is appropriate if the equipment is non-operational for many consecutive days. The PM Schedule Out of Service Extension screen displays information about PM schedule extensions for equipment. If a service is eligible for an extension, this screen enables you to apply credits to PM services and inspections.
Once a PM service is eligible, a user can apply the credit which will extend the due date of that PM service determining when the PM service will be next performed. Credits can be applied once per service, per schedule. It is important to note the difference between a service and a schedule. There are three types of schedules: CLASS PM Schedule, INDIVIDUAL PM Schedule, and INSPECTION Schedule.
INDIVIDUAL PMs that allow out-of-service days that end after the due date (but start prior to due date) are eligible to be used as extension.
CLASS PMs that allow out-of-service days that end after the due date (but start prior to due date) are eligible to be used as extension.
INDIVIDUAL PMs that allow out-of-service days that start and end after the due date are not eligible to be used as extension.
CLASS PMs that allow out-of-service days that start and end after the due date are not eligible to be used as extension.
The Out-of-service days period will only update the NEXT DUE record's days out of service for a PM if the days out of service are longer than the previous out of-service period.
Tip: To apply the out-of-service days to PM schedules, you need to activate the functionality by placing a check in the Maintain data to allow for extending PM and inspection schedules based on days out of service field on the More Info tab of the Data -> Equipment Units -> Setup -> Options screen. An equipment unit’s PM or inspection schedule is updated whenever a work order is closed and YES displays in the Update PM schedule field on the applicable Tasks tab of the work order screen.
Note: Only equipment associated with work orders that are created after this option is activated will be tracked on this screen.

If the SLA status changes from IN SERVICE or WORK FINISHED to another status, a new EQ_DOWNTIME row is generated. The number of days based is calculated on the date/time in and the date/time in service or date/time finished.
