By adding assets to this tab, users can easily generate work orders based on the preventive maintenance schedule, ensuring that maintenance tasks are carried out efficiently and effectively.

If a Preventive Maintenance schedule is a Meter Based Schedule, the next area you will need to fill out after setting your PM to be Meter Based is:
- A.

Correct Answer
B. Next scheduled Meter interval

Explanation
After setting the Preventive Maintenance (PM) schedule to be meter-based, the next area that needs to be filled out is the next scheduled meter interval. This is because a meter-based schedule relies on the usage of a meter to determine when maintenance should be performed. Therefore, it is important to specify the next scheduled meter interval to ensure that the maintenance is carried out at the appropriate time based on the meter readings.

Correct Answer
C. Filtering Assets by Repair Center specified on PM Asset record

Explanation
The Repair Center filter on the PM Assets Tab is used to filter assets by the repair center specified on the PM Asset record.

When adding an Asset to the Asset Tab on a PM, the Asset/Location Popup window will display many organizational attributes which will be used in the PM for Work Order generation - unless?

  They are blank
- B.
  
  The data is bad
- C.

- D.
  
  The Use Asset Defaults was selected for the PM
Correct Answer
D. The Use Asset Defaults was selected for the PM

Explanation
If the "Use Asset Defaults" option is selected for the PM, then the organizational attributes displayed in the Asset/Location Popup window will not be used in the PM for Work Order generation. This means that the PM will not consider these attributes and will instead use the default settings or values associated with the asset.

7.

The Next Procedure column is most useful when the Preventive Maintenance schedule has multiple Procedures.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The Next Procedure column is most useful when the Preventive Maintenance schedule has multiple Procedures because it allows for easy tracking and organization of the sequential steps that need to be followed. This column helps ensure that each procedure is completed in the correct order and that no steps are missed. It provides a clear roadmap for technicians to follow and helps to streamline the maintenance process. Without the Next Procedure column, it would be more difficult to keep track of the order in which procedures need to be performed, leading to potential errors or inefficiencies.

  Customer
- D.
  
  Meter Readings
- E.
  
  Account
Correct Answer(s)
A. Repair Center
B. Department
C. Customer
E. Account

Explanation

This means that the default values for these fields will be used when generating the PM, ensuring consistency and accuracy in the generated work orders. Meter Readings is not available to check off in this case, as it is not relevant to the generation of the PM.
