If you make edits to records in Maximo® Asset Management that affect a preventive
maintenance (PM) forecast, there are restrictions and business rules
that apply.
PM edits when a forecast exists
When you change a preventive maintenance record that has
an existing forecast, the forecast can be affected.
Work order generation of forecasted PMs
When a preventive maintenance (PM) record becomes due,
a work order is generated. If a forecast exists for the preventive
maintenance record, it is affected.
Work order cancellation when a forecast exists
When you cancel a work order for a preventive maintenance
(PM) record for which a forecast exists, the cancellation can affect
the forecasted dates.
