Chapter 3. Preventive Maintenance 45 3.4.2 PM job plans You can specify one or more job plans on a PM record. A job plan describes the tasks that have to be performed on a work order, and the labor, materials, services, and tools that are necessary. Job plans are created in the Job Plans application and have to be active before available. Job plans are usually asset- specific; they are written for a specific asset, item, or location. Figure 3- 6 shows the Job Plan Sequence form in detail. Figure 3- 6 Job Plan Setup Job plans are defined at the system level in Multisite, but can contain details that are specific to organization and site. When IBM Maximo Asset Management copies job plan data to a PM work order, it copies the information about the job plan that applies to the work order Site. PM records and routes You use the Routes application to create lists of related work assets, which are considered stops along the route. These route stops can be assets or locations, or a combination of the two. When you list a route on a PM record and generate work orders, IBM Maximo Asset Management creates a work order hierarchy with a top level work order, child work orders or standalone work orders for each of the route stops. Note: When you generate a work order from a PM, the Owner or Owner Group listed on a Job Plan takes precedence over the Owner or Owner Group listed on a PM record.
