Prerequisites

• Access to the File > Standard activity (MA049) menu.
• Previously configured standard activity type.
• Previously created team.

Introduction

A standard activity is a mandatory record in the process of creating all maintenance, calibration, and verification types. Its main function is to parameterize all activities and plans that will be created from it.

The objective of this article is to specify the configurations that the standard activity must have in order to be used in the creation of preventive maintenance activity plans. A preventive maintenance differs for having a recurrence, since it is used to prevent problems and serves to calibrate a machine monthly, for example.

The record that will illustrate the steps will be used to create a maintenance plan for a machine's high pressure pump, the same example used in the corrective maintenance flow; the difference is that a maintenance recurrence will be defined to prevent problems on the machine.

Creating a standard activity for preventive maintenance

A standard activity for preventive maintenance does not need any specific configurations.

Click here and watch the video available in the article that will open to create a standard activity using a standard activity type, an ID #, and a name that are consistent with a preventive maintenance.

In the following GIF, the main steps of the video, which are mandatory, will be replicated to demonstrate the creation of the standard activity that will be used to develop the example in the preventive maintenance flow.

Conclusion

After saving the standard activity record, use it to create a preventive maintenance plan.
