    About this task

    Planned work schedules run regularly using the Planned Maintenance Nightly Run scheduled job. When the scheduled job runs, the appropriate work orders are created for all records that meet the schedule criteria (including all records for the current day).

    You must configure the nightly planned maintenance schedule job to run the planned work schedule.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > System Definition > Schedule Jobs.
    2. In the Search field, enter Planned Maintenance Nightly Run.
    3. Select Planned Maintenance Nightly Run.
    4. To specify a different schedule for running the job, change the Run and Time fields.
      A scheduled job does not run based on the value set in the Next run time field in the maintenance plan record for this job. For more information, see Configure a work schedule.
    5. Click Update.
    6. At any time, to run the scheduled job, click Execute Now.
      Note:

      The scheduled job evaluates all previously defined schedules and executes the ones that are scheduled to run.

      If one or more records in the table associated with the work plan are deleted after the matching records were associated with the work plan, the next nightly run removes all the records associated with those removed assets.
