2. By adding Assets to the Assets tab of a PM you are able to generate work orders on an automatic, time scheduled basis.

Explanation

By adding assets to the Assets tab of a PM (preventive maintenance) system, it allows for the generation of work orders automatically and on a scheduled basis. This means that the system will automatically create work orders for maintenance tasks based on predetermined time intervals or schedules. This automation helps to streamline the maintenance process and ensures that tasks are consistently performed at the appropriate times, reducing the risk of equipment failure or downtime.

4. How many days in advance of a PM being due can you display a notification or create Work Orders automatically? 

Explanation

The correct answer is "All of the above". This means that you can display a notification or create work orders automatically for a PM being due 30 days in advance, 15 days in advance, 10 days in advance, or 5 days in advance.

5. When deciding if you should create a brand new Preventive Maintenance schedule or clone an existing schedule, what is a key factor in this decision? 

Explanation

The key factor in deciding whether to create a brand new Preventive Maintenance schedule or clone an existing schedule is if the PM to be cloned fits your company's practices and needs for the new PM which is needed. This means that if the existing schedule aligns with the requirements and standards of the company, it can be cloned instead of creating a new one from scratch. This ensures that the new PM schedule will be effective and suitable for the company's specific needs.

Submit
6. What are the two flexible schedule configuration options available for PMs? 

Explanation

The correct answer is Fixed or Floating Schedule. This means that project managers have the option to either set a fixed schedule, where tasks and deadlines are predetermined, or a floating schedule, where tasks and deadlines can be adjusted and rearranged as needed. This flexibility allows project managers to adapt to changing circumstances and prioritize tasks accordingly.

Submit
7. In an example where a Monthly PM needs to be set up to generate a different Procedure after every quarter), how would the Interval be set up for each Procedure? 

Explanation

The correct answer is "Monthly is Interval '1', Quarterly is Interval '3'". This means that for the Monthly PM, the interval is set to 1, indicating that it should occur every month. For the different Procedure after every quarter, the interval is set to 3, indicating that it should occur every 3 months or quarterly. This setup ensures that the Monthly PM and the different Procedure are scheduled at the appropriate intervals.

Submit
8. What are the key pieces of a Preventive Maintenance Schedule that must be added? 

Explanation

A preventive maintenance schedule requires key pieces such as details, schedule, and assets. Details refer to specific information about the maintenance task, including the equipment or system involved, the maintenance procedure, and any necessary documentation. Schedule refers to the planned timing and frequency of the maintenance activities. Assets refer to the equipment or systems that require maintenance. These key pieces ensure that the preventive maintenance is properly planned, documented, and executed for the identified assets.

Submit
9. Procedures are added to PM Schedules for which of the following reasons? (Select all that apply)

Explanation

Procedures are added to PM Schedules for multiple reasons. Firstly, they are added to define a set of tasks that need to be completed. This helps in providing clear instructions and guidelines for the maintenance activities. Secondly, procedures are added to set estimates for labor, materials, and other resources required for the maintenance tasks. This helps in planning and budgeting for the maintenance work. Lastly, procedures are added to indicate the type of craft or skill required for the tasks, as well as to specify a specific individual who should be assigned to perform the tasks. This ensures that the right person with the appropriate skills is assigned to carry out the maintenance work effectively.

Submit
10. From the Automation tab of a PM schedule, what Work Order Generation options do you have? (Select all that apply)

Explanation

The Automation tab of a PM schedule provides two options for Work Order Generation. The first option is to display a notification on the home page to manually generate work orders. This allows the user to manually generate work orders when they are ready to do so. The second option is to create work orders automatically. This means that work orders will be generated automatically without any manual intervention. These two options provide flexibility and convenience for managing work orders in a PM schedule.
