Preventive maintenance statuses

Preventive maintenance statuses indicate the position of the PM in the processing cycle and determine whether work orders can be generated.

DRAFT
PMs have a default status of DRAFT when you create them. Work orders cannot be generated from PMs with a DRAFT status. Typically PMs with this status are in the process of being created or modified.
ACTIVE
PMs must have an ACTIVE status to generate work orders. You can still modify a PM that has a status of ACTIVE.
INACTIVE
PM records that have an INACTIVE status do not generate work orders. Typically PMs with this status have been discontinued, either temporarily or permanently. You can change the status of a PM from INACTIVE to ACTIVE.
