PPM

The PPM screen is used to turn Planned Maintenance Cycles into Calls within Call2Field. There are various options which can be used to filter your results, or you can generate PPM Calls from a Customer, Site or Equipment screen directly for more precise results.

The following steps will generate Planned Maintenance Calls:

1. Choose whether to select a Customer or Site to filter results by. These can be left blank
2. Choose a Start Date and an End Date to generate between. This can be done on a monthly basis, generating for the upcoming month.
3. Choose whether the record has to have a valid Contract, or not (or both). Sites/Equipment that are on a Contract which has expired will not generate, even under 'Not On Contract' as they have a Contract which is now out of date.
4. Choose whether you're looking to generate results found on Sites, Equipment or both.
5. Click the Generate Calls button at the top of the page.

The boxes at the bottom of the screen will give you an estimation of how many records match your criteria. The number of Calls generated may differ. Once the Calls have been generated, the PPM Cycles will have moved on by their date range, and the generated Calls will now appear in the Call List, Diary, Monitor etc.

PM History Log

There is a dropdown on the top-left which can be used to select a previous log of generated Calls, which can then be viewed by clicking the 'View Log' button.
