Question 58 - Certified Field Service Consultant discussion

Generation Horizon is a setting that defines how far in advance work orders should be generated from maintenance plans[126]. Defining a generation horizon of 14 days would allow Universal Containers to automatically generate Work Orders 14 days before the next suggested maintenance date by creating work orders from maintenance plans within 14 days of their scheduled date[127]. Defining a generation timeframe of 14 days would not automatically generate Work Orders 14 days before the next suggested maintenance date. Generation Timeframe is a setting that defines how often work orders should be generated from maintenance plans[128]. Configuring Auto-generate Work Orders to True would not automatically generate Work Orders 14 days before the next suggested maintenance date. Auto-generate Work Orders is a setting that enables or disables the automatic generation of work orders from maintenance plans[129]. Defining a generation horizon of 20,160 minutes would not automatically generate Work Orders 14 days before the next suggested maintenance date. Generation Horizon is measured in days, not minutes[130].
