Implement an EAM Maintenance Plan

About This Task

In the Implement Actions workspace, you can implement Actions as an EAM Maintenance Plan.

Procedure

  1. Access Implement Actions.
  2. In the Implement Actions workspace, in the row for the Actions that you want to implement as an EAM Maintenance plan, select the check box.
    The Actions are highlighted.
    Note: The maximum number of records that you can select for one implementation is 100.
  3. In the workspace, select Implement, and then select EAM Maintenance Plan.

    The Implement as EAM Maintenance Plan window appears.

  4. Select Send.

    A message appears, confirming that the maintenance plan has been implemented successfully.

Results

  • A General Recommendation is created and linked to the asset.
  • The General Recommendation contains an Excel document with the Action information.

Implement an Action as an EAM Work Request

About This Task

In the Implement Actions workspace, you can send a work request to create an implementation in the EAM system for the selected Actions.
