Maintenance Plan Processing Settings
You can set the batch size to limit the number of maintenance plans considered in a single batch for a process run. The batch size helps limit resource utilization and ensures minimal impact if the maintenance plan process run fails.
To set a batch size for maintenance plan process run:
1. Navigate to Setup Home > Maintenance Plan Processing > Settings.
The Settings page is displayed.
2. Click Edit. You can also click the pencil icon next to the field values.
3. Provide the details for the fields as explained in the following table.

Maintenance Plan Assignment Threshold
|
The Maintenance Plan Assignment Threshold field sets the maximum number of active maintenance plans you can assign to a single maintenance plan process. If that limit is reached and a user tries to assign the MP Process to a Maintenance Plan, they will receive an error message, and an email notification will be sent to the email address configured on the process. The current value is set to 10,000.
|
4. Click Save.
 |
Along with setting the correct batch size for process runs, you must consider the data volume recommendations to ensure successful maintenance plan process runs.
|
Recommendations:
• When a single maintenance asset is associated with each plan, use batch sizes of 10 or 20, and keep the Maintenance Plan Assignment Threshold at or below 10,000. Ensure not to schedule more than 20 Maintenance Processes at the same time.
• When 1,000 maintenance assets are associated with a single plan, use a batch size of 1, and keep the Maintenance Plan Assignment Threshold at or below 10.
• To avoid Salesforce governor limits, distribute Maintenance Plans across multiple processes so that each process remains within the configured threshold. It is also important to maintain that the maximum asset per process should not exceed 10000, in any configuration.

If threshold is set beyond the recommended limits, then there are chances to hit governor limits.
