About this task

When you run a maintenance schedule on demand, all of the next run dates for the relevant maintenance plan records are updated to the user-defined time, now or in the future. All the appropriate service orders are created. If the schedule is meter, condition, or script-based, service orders are created for maintenance plan records that meet the schedule criteria.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Planned Maintenance > Maintenance Plans.
2. Open the Maintenance Plan that contains the schedule to run.
3. In the Maintenance Schedules related list, select the maintenance schedule you want to run.
4. Click the Run on demand related link and then fill in the form.
