PM Calendar Generation – Is WO Generation Lead Time Included in Due Date Calculation?

Question

Hi Team,We are looking for clarification regarding the PM Calendar Generation process and the WO Generation Lead Time field.The field description for WO Generation Lead Time indicates that it is included during Work Order generation. We would like to understand whether this lead time is also considered when calculating or evaluating the PM Due Date used by the PM Calendar Generation database task (SYSDATE). For example, if a PM has: - Due Date: 6-Jun-2026- WO Generation Lead Time: 3 days    Will the database task effectively consider the PM as due from 3-Jun-2026 (Due Date minus Lead Time), or is the Due Date calculation unaffected and the lead time only used during Work Order generation? Could you please clarify the expected behavior? Thank you.

HiChaithanya.WO Generation Lead Time should only be used when generating the work order, not when calculating the due date. The due date is the date by when the PM should be done. Having a WO Generation Lead Time enables you to automatically generate the work order a number of days prior to the due date, thus ensuring that you can plan and perform the work before the due date.Geir Sigve
