If you have the appropriate access, you can reset the preventive
maintenance (PM) counter. You might reset the PM counter if you want
the PM to use a different job plan than the one that is scheduled
to be next.
Procedure
- In the Preventive Maintenance application, select the PM
record whose counter you want to reset.
Tip: You
can view the current job plan sequence by selecting the View
Sequence action from the Select Action menu. You can view
the current counter setting on the PM tab.
- Select the Set PM Counter action.
- In the New PM Counter field, type
a value.
- Click OK to close the window and
return to the PM tab.
- Click Save PM.
Example: Preventive maintenance counters for a turbine
You
have the following job plan sequence on a PM. The
Counter value
is 3. The next work order generated from the PM uses the job plan
associated with sequence 4. You decide to repeat job plan sequence
1 rather than run job sequence 4, so you change the
Counter value
to 2. The job plan with sequence 1 is implemented next and job sequence
4 is postponed:
