To edit the data of a verification plan, first, locate the desired plan. After that, with the plan selected on the main screen, click on the button. At this point, the verification plan data screen will be displayed for editing.

 

General data

In this section, complete or edit the following fields:

ID #: Verification plan ID #.

Name: Verification plan name.

Plan type: Plan type, which in this case is "Verification".

Activity: This field will only be displayed if the user selected the "Inherit activity data" option when recording a plan. This field will be filled with the activity selected during the plan record, but if necessary, the standard activity of the plan may be changed. By changing the activity of this field, the next verification activities will be based on the new standard activity.

Asset(s): Below this field, the assets or asset templates associated with the verification plan will be presented, however, it will be possible to associate new assets with the plan. If necessary, it is possible to remove any assets that have been associated with the plan.

Responsible team for plan: This team will be allowed to create activities in the "programming" or "execution" step, in their respective menus or through the Verification due date task.

Responsible team for planning: This field will only be displayed if the user has selected the "Copy data from activity" option while recording the plan. This team is responsible for planning the plan verifications and will have permission to create activities in the "programming" step, in their respective menus or through the Verification due date task.

Responsible team for the execution: This field will only be displayed if the user has selected the "Copy data from activity" option while recording the plan. This team is responsible for executing the plan verifications and will have permission to create activities in the "execution" step, in their respective menus or through the Verification due date task.

Date-based frequency: Check this option to enable the execution frequency of the asset verification through the Verification due date task. Note that this frequency may be pre-configured if the standard activity of this plan has been configured with this frequency, however, if necessary, this configuration can be changed in the plan. If this option is checked, the following fields can be configured:

Frequency type: Select the frequency type for the verification execution of the asset:

ºExecution date: The verification activity will be performed on a specific date.

ºFirst use: The verification activity will be performed at the frequency determined after the first use of the asset.

ºUsage time: The verification activity will be performed at the determined frequency of the usage time of the asset.

Frequency: Enter the frequency in which the verifications will be performed. In the Unit field, set whether the frequency will be calculated in days, weeks, months or years. For example: every 3 days, every 2 months, every year, among others. Remember that, besides the option configured in this field, the system will take into account the previously selected frequency type.

Date visualization: Set how the asset verification period will appear on the system screens: day/month/year, month/year or week/year. If the selected template is "month/year", the system will generate the task on the last day of the month. If the selected template is "day/month/year", the system will validate whether the execution date is a working day in accordance with the defined schedule and, if it is not, will change the execution to the last working day.

Next execution: Select the date on which the asset verification execution will be planned. This field is enabled for filling only if the Verification field in the General parameters Control section has been selected. Otherwise, the system will automatically complete with the date of the next execution of the assets. When the verification plan is scheduled, the dates of the next executions will be calculated according to the frequency defined in the previous field. If the execution does not occur, after that date, the Verification due date task will be performed.

Calendar: Select the calendar on which the execution dates of the verification will be based. This field may be filled in if there is any calendar configured in the general parameters. This field will only be displayed if the "Inherit activity data" option has been selected when creating the verification plan.

 

Asset meter-based frequency: Check this option to generate verification activities as soon as the meter reaches a certain measurement. The asset meter-based frequency cannot be configured if any assets of the plan have no meter reading. Note that this frequency may be pre-configured if the standard activity of this plan has been configured with this frequency, however, if necessary, this configuration can be changed in the plan. If this option is checked, the following fields can be configured:

Frequency: Enter the value that when reached by the meter will generate the verification due date task.

In advance: Enter the anticipation for the generation of the verification due date task.

Example 1: If a car mileage is measured in the asset, the frequency can be set for every 10,000 km read on the meter, but the verification due date task can be generated with 1,000 km in advance, that is, once the meter reaches 9,000 km, the verification due date task will be generated.

Example 2: If the asset meter is configured to measure the usage time of a gage with a frequency set for every 200 hours and a 50 hours anticipation, the verification expiration task will be generated as soon as the meter reaches 150 hours of use.

Next execution: Enter what value the meter should reach to generate the next verification activity.

Current value: This field is automatically filled by the system with the amount already reached by the asset meter.

Last reading: This field is automatically filled by the system with the date of the last reading made on the meter.

Create activity automatically: This field is only available if the "Date-based frequency" or "Asset meter-based frequency" option has been checked. Check this option to have the verification activity automatically created. Configure also the following information:

Create ___ days before the next execution: Enter how many days before the next execution the new activity will be created.

Create activities even if pending activities already exist: If this option is checked, new activities will be created, regardless of the existence of pending verifications.

Generate activities in the step of: Define if the verification activities will be created in the planning or the execution (To be started) step. If the frequency based on the asset meter is enabled, then the "In advance" field will be used to create the verification activities before the frequency is reached.

Priority: Define the priority of the verification plan. In that case, select the desired evaluation method in the respective field. After that, the evaluation criteria will be displayed. Select the desired value for each criterion that will be displayed. The method to enter the available values and criteria will vary according to the configurations made in the selected evaluation method. The Result field will be filled out according to the values selected in the evaluation method criteria.
