Extended Value – Not Entered

Adjust Next Due Value – Not Applicable

Initial Value – 1000 km

Interval Value – 2000 km

The next due values for the inspection orders would be 1000 km, 3000 km, 5000 km, 7000 km, 9000 km, 11000 km and 13000 km.

Extended Value – Entered

Adjust Next Due Value – No

Initial Value – 1000 km

Extended Value – 1200 km

Interval Value – 2000 km

The next due values for inspection orders would be 1200 km, 3000 km, 5000 km, 7000 km, 9000 km, 11000 km and 13000 km.

Extended Value – Entered

Adjust Next Due Value – Yes

Interval Value – 1000 km

Extended Value – 1200 km

Interval Value – 2000 km

The next due values for the inspection orders would be 1200 km, 3200 km, 5200 km, 7200 km, 11200 km and 13200 km.

Calendar-based fixed schedule

In this schedule one inspection order is generated for every date that is mentioned in the fixed schedule. For example, if you have specified the dates on which inspection must be carried out as 04/01/2002, 04/13/2002, 04/22/2002 and 04/30/2002 the next due dates for inspection order will be 04/01/2002, 04/13/2002, 04/22/2002 and 04/30/2002.

Usage-based fixed schedule

In this schedule one inspection order is generated for every parameter value that is specified. For example, if you have specified the values at which inspection must be carried out as 2000 km, 5000 km and 7000 km, three inspection orders are due when the parameter reaches the three values.

Off-Seasonal

Inspection orders are not generated for the period that is defined as the Off-Seasonal. A period can be a date range or a range of specific days of a month, which will be recurring in nature. For example, if off-season for a inspection is defined from July 10 2001 to September 9 2001, then the inspection schedule would not generate the inspection order between July 10 2001 and September 9 2001. Off-Season can be defined as from April 1 to t May 31 and as annual recurring, then inspection schedule would not generate the inspection order between April 1and May 31every year.
