What's the difference between these Maintenance Plan dates - Due Date and Planned Start

In IFS Apps 9 there was just a planned start date field and it persisted through the maintenance process in the Maintenance Plan.  Here’s PM No 14866 in Apps 9 showing completed work with a Planned Start Date.

Finished work orders still show a planned date in IEE

 

IFS Cloud drops the Planned Start value from the maintenance plan when the work task generates for some reason…

All the lines with a Generation Date no longer have a planned start here in the Aurena thingy

However the planned start is still in the database if you look at pm_calendar_plan.planned_date.

 

What’s the difference between these fields?  Between the page designer and debug console I’m not even sure which field Due Date is.

 

Is the Due Date pm_calendar_plan.base_date?

 

As a pain point, this makes the user look at an additional column to review preventive maintenance history.  Right now I just need to make sure they’re supposed to be about the same thing for reporting.

Hi,

From what I can tell by looking at the maintenance plan analysis the Due date is the same as the planned date. The description for due date is “The date when a work order will be generated. It is possible to change the date, if appropriate.”

Since the PMs create work tasks, based on work list if you look at the work task the planned date is on the work task. It seems to me that IFS is putting all the original information in the task. in 22R2.

Hi @dbankston ,

 

Due date is PM_CALENDAR_PLAN.PlannedDate (Planned Date) , you can get this information under the Page Info Tab of Aurena Debug Console.

Refer this for more info.
