Displays the selected maintenance plan. You can select another maintenance plan, if required.

Displays the property in which the asset, for which the maintenance activity definition is created (MAD), is located.
When the asset is moved to a different property, on compiling the plan/generating the PPM order, the MADs of this asset in the plan are updated with the new property.

If the new property is not within the maintenance plan, nothing is changed.

Select an asset or building element for which you want to schedule maintenance activities. If this field is left empty, the maintenance activity definition will apply to the entire property instead of to a specific asset or building element.

However, under the following conditions, this field becomes mandatory:

If you click the browse button next to the field, you can only select assets / building elements whose Is planned maintenance required? (Y/N) field in Technical assets is set to Yes and which do not have the Disposed of status.

Enter a code for the activity definition.

Enter a description of the activity definition.

Enter the type of maintenance that applies to the activities generated from an activity definition: routine, statutory, other mandatory or replacement.

Select a scheduling method for the activity definition.
There are three methods available: Variable method, Fixed method and Fixed completion method. The Scheduling method can only be changed if a maintenance order has not yet been generated, or if all corresponding maintenance activities are in either the Completed or the Canceled status.

Enter a quantity for the value that you entered in the Unit field. For example the number of square feet of an asset that needs to be painted.

Select a unit of measurement.
This field refers to the value specified in the Quantity field.

Enter a value that represents the percentage of work planned to be completed in the selected maintenance plan.

Specify if the clustering of scheduled activities is permitted or not.

You can use this setting to suppress the first activity in the schedule's sequence, preventing it from starting directly on the asset's maintenance start date-time. The setting applies to: Standard maintenance activity definitions, Asset activity definitions and Contract activity definitions. If you select Yes in this field, an extra iteration is added to the start date-time of the activity definition upon compiling the maintenance plan, which results in the first activity (on the maintenance start date) being skipped.

Enter a start date-time for the activity definition.

Enter an end date-time for the activity definition.

If you linked several activity definitions to the same asset, which include equivalent work (activities), but which have a different schedule, it is possible to let the activities of the selected activity definition be overruled (for a specific period) by activities of another activity definition within the same service plan.
You can select an overruling activity definition in this field.

Example:

The asset is a lease car. It is linked to activity definitions A and B.

Activity definition A, ‘Annual motor vehicle inspection’, has a yearly schedule.

Activity definition B, ‘Check tire pressure’, has a monthly schedule.

Both activity definitions involve an activity in which the tire pressure is checked. Each time activities from A and B overlap, you can choose to have activity B overrule activity A. This prevents the same task from being carried out twice.

Specify a period of time to be deducted from the start date-time and added to the end date-time of the selected activity definition, to define a period within which the overruling activity definition is valid.

Select a relevant standard maintenance order. This field must be completed to generate orders.
