Hi,

Can you please  check whether your PM action has below settings ? If yes, in the maintenance plan tab, the plan will be created. then you can enter the site and week (any other filtering data) and generate work orders.

Things to note:

  1. In Application Base Setup\System Setup\System Definitions\Object property tab - Property name PM_PLAN_HORIZON should have a property value set to a future year. (Or else enter a valid to date in general tab in the PM Action)
  2. Calendar connected to maintenance organization should be non-expired and in generated status.
  3. PM Action must be active

If you have the pm actions then it might be that you are missing the scheduled database task running the calendar grneration feature.

Hello, I found this helpful but after following the steps I am still not seeing the extended dates on the Maintenance Plan.  When I try to run the Calendar Generation I get an Error Message - There are no valid actions for the entered criteria.  

PM is active

Maintenance Plan - start value is 1/8/2017 and Valid From 12/1/2016

The last Maintenance Plan was generated 6/12/20.

I believe it may be an issue with Calendar but I can not locate.

PM_PLAN_HORIZON is 2022

Maintenance Calendar out 2023

I have a scheduled Database Task - PM Generate Calendar is scheduled daily.

Any help will be much appreciated.
