Shift Factor
There are two shift factors in the
Maintenance Planning
component. These are shift factors for the following cases:
Premature completion
Delayed completion
You can define the shift factor specifically for your maintenance plan by specifying the shift percentage to be taken into account when calculating the next due date.
The shift factor only applies once the maintenance plan has already been scheduled, and when the difference between the planned date and actual date lies outside the tolerance range.
Example
The planned date for your maintenance order was 01.08.05, but it was confirmed 15 days too late, namely on 16.08.05. The next planned date may now be on a different date since this is dependent on the shift factors entered. Three possible shift factors are shown in the table below:
