Use this activity to define maintenance groups. A maintenance group is one of the basic maintenance objects with a connection to operational parameters, maintenance plans, and interval maintenance. Maintenance groups are defined per serial part, where one serial part can have one or several maintenance groups.
Maintenance groups are tightly connected to operational parameters. For each maintenance group, several operational parameters can be defined. When a maintenance group is defined for serial parts, a control is executed to determine if serials exist with operational data from operational measurements for the maintenance group. When entering a new operational parameter, the parameter is automatically assigned to all serials in the selected maintenance group. When a maintenance group is changed, the operational parameters are changed according to the new maintenance group.
A primary operational parameter must exist for the serial part.
