To generate a maintenance order and an inspection lot from a maintenance call, there are the following options:
The system generates an order and an inspection lot automatically within the scheduling function. You can influence the date for releasing and generating using the scheduling parameters. In this case, only the prerequisites outlined below must be fulfilled.
You can release a maintenance call manually . When saving, the system generates an order and an inspection lot. The procedure describes the manual release.
