About maintenance schedules
What programme, schedule, revision and enrolment mean, and what KitNDocs does not decide
The words
A maintenance programme is everything your operation holds about maintenance. You have one programme.
A maintenance schedule is a set of tasks inside that programme. You can have several schedules.
A revision is one version of a schedule. After you publish it, it does not change.
Enrolment puts equipment on a schedule. Enrolled equipment gets the tasks from the schedule revision.
A schedule does not say which equipment belongs on it. Any equipment can go on any schedule, one piece at a time.
What KitNDocs does not decide
KitNDocs does not know which maintenance rules apply to you.
It does not read regulations, manufacturer manuals or governing body notices.
It does not approve a schedule or tell you that a schedule is enough.
It records what you write. You decide whether the rules are right for your operation.
From schedule to equipment
Writing and publishing a schedule change no equipment.
Enrolment is the step that creates tasks on equipment.
The usual order is:
Write the schedule
Name the schedule and say what it answers to.
Write the tasks
Add the work the schedule creates.
Publish the revision
Make the draft available for enrolment.
Put equipment on the programme
Create tasks from the published revision.
Equipment stays on the revision you enrolled it in until you apply a newer one.
Equipment left on an older revision is called drift. Drift is allowed. The schedule shows it so you can decide what to do.
