Enable Interval Adjustment
Select this checkbox to enable interval adjustment.
Enabling this checkbox allows users to define a horizon of adjustment for the condition’s milestones, based on completion of the previous work order generated for the work rule.
Interval adjustment is done in both the cases where the previous work order is completed earlier than expected, or later than expected.
This enables dynamic interval adjustment for maintenance plans with time and frequency conditions. It adjusts the generation of the next maintenance work order for an asset automatically, based on the completion status of the currently existing maintenance work order for the same asset. Work orders completed and closed earlier or later than expected will inform the interval adjustment logic on when to calculate the work rule's next milestone.
Interval adjustment is applied only if there no open work orders from the previous process run.
Adjustment Start
This field value indicates when the interval adjustment begins calculating the adjusted value of the next milestone if the current work order is not completed, or competed earlier than expected.
The value is calculated based on the number of days.
These fields are displayed only if you select the Enable Interval Adjustment checkbox.
If you enable interval adjustment and do not provide either of the adjustment start or the maximum adjustment value, or both the values, interval adjustment occurs at actual values.
Maximum Adjustment Value
This field value indicates the maximum value of adjustment calculated when determining the next milestone. Even if a work order is not completed within the window between the adjustment start and maximum adjustment values, the interval adjustment does not adjust more than the specified maximum value.
