Time-Based Scheduling
Fixed interval maintenance
5 min read
Time-based PM runs on a fixed calendar: daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or custom.
Common Schedules
- Daily safety checks (7 days/week)
- Weekly lubrication (every 7 days)
- Monthly filter replacement (every 30 days)
- Quarterly calibration (every 90 days)
- Annual fire system inspection (every 365 days)
Tip
If monthly inspections always pass, consider extending to bi-monthly.
Reschedule mode
Each schedule reschedules either from the completion date (the default โ the next occurrence is set from when the work order is actually completed, so a late completion shifts the whole cycle) or on a fixed calendar (from the due date, regardless of when the work is completed โ best for regulatory or compliance schedules). Choose this per schedule in the PM form.
