A Maintenance Forecast is not a scheduled maintenance order.
Forecasts and actual orders must remain visually distinct.
Preventive orders are generated as Requested and unscheduled.
Both Scheduled Start and Scheduled End are required to schedule an order.
Scheduled End must be later than Scheduled Start.
Scheduling does not mean maintenance has started.
Maintenance impact is applied according to the order lifecycle.
Unscheduled preventive orders remain visible until a valid schedule is saved.
Forecast dates can change when workstation usage changes.
Time Interval forecasts are based on the Last Service Date and interval.
Usage-based forecasts depend on recent workstation usage.
No recent usage can result in an unavailable forecast date.
Shift windows should be reviewed before scheduling maintenance.
Overnight shifts must be treated as continuous working periods.
Suggested non-working windows are advisory.
Suggested windows should fit the full Estimated Downtime.
Suggested windows should not extend beyond the forecast due date when a due forecast exists.
Cover candidates are advisory and do not automatically transfer production.
Production must confirm whether a cover workstation can perform the work.
Full Stop maintenance removes only the affected workstation from capacity.
Reduced Output maintenance lowers capacity without fully stopping the workstation.
No Stop maintenance does not create a capacity-loss window.
Maintenance downtime must not be treated as an operator coverage gap.
Calendar changes should be communicated to production and maintenance teams.
Actual Start and Actual End must reflect real execution times.
Completing a plan-linked Preventive order recalculates the next maintenance forecast.
Review the Planning Calendar during every maintenance-planning meeting.
Check unscheduled preventive orders daily.
Schedule preventive work before the Forecast Due By date.
Use Day view for detailed execution planning.
Use Week view for technician and workstation coordination.
Use Month view for broader maintenance distribution.
Use Agenda view for chronological reviews.
Enable Shift Windows before scheduling production-impacting work.
Check overnight shifts carefully.
Use suggested non-working periods where practical.
Confirm that the full Estimated Downtime fits the selected window.
Do not rely on a forecast as a confirmed appointment.
Recheck usage-based forecasts as production changes.
Review cover candidates before scheduling Full Stop maintenance.
Confirm actual cover capacity with production planning.
Avoid stopping several bottleneck workstations at the same time.
