To automatically create service workorders from a preventive maintenance, the following is required:
1. The AyaNova Generator is running
| • | If stand-alone default installation, you are logged into the AyaNova program as a user other than the AyaNova Administrator that has full rights to PM and workorder objects. |
| • | If network configuration, the AyaNova Generator Service is successfully installed and running as per the technical section in this help file on configuring the Generator service |

2. The Preventive Maintenance has a Threshold Time Span and a Next Service Date that coincide, and the Active field is check-marked
| • | Threshold time span dictates how far in advance of the service date you wish the workorder to be generated. |

Parts selected in a Preventive Maintenance
Do note that as parts entered in a preventive maintenance order do not affect inventory, when a preventive maintenance order is converted to a service workorder, that the quantity of parts in a PM are not entered in the Quantity column within the Parts subgrid in a service workorder.
Parts via a PM are entered in a column within the parts subgrid Quantity Required in a service workorder only as a reminder of the amount that should be used as per the preventive maintenance.
AyaNova can not pre-enter this quantity in a service workorder as user intervention may be required because:
| • | a part may or may not have a serial number |
| • | the quantity may or may not be in stock |
In the screenshot above, this service workorder was created by a preventive maintenance. The Quantity Required is indicated in the Parts sub-screen, but the Quantity has not yet been entered by the user.
