Planning

It is necessary to define a planning margin duration in advance of maintenance so that they can be planned and integrated into planning schedules.

To do this, enter the duration in Plan ahead by, accessible via:

Settings > Plug-ins and options, [[Production]].

In our case, maintenance must be scheduled 200 days in advance, for example.

When using this feature for the first time, you can manually start the planning process from the menu:

Production > Machines/CMMS > Machine maintenance planning.

This action will generate maintenance operations in the planning for all maintenance tasks whose next maintenance date is earlier than the date entered in the Until setting.

Once processing is complete, you will be able to view the time slots blocked by maintenance operations in Production > Production Planning.

In Production > Manufacturing Orders, maintenance manufacturing orders associated with manufacturing operations are displayed in green.

Planning is also done on a daily basis. Nighttime automation allows maintenance tasks to be automatically scheduled.
