We are still analysing our information for maintenance cycles to establish
cycles, but we are going to explore 0 value sales orders with us as the
customer and then establishing Releases through the year to control cycles.

We also use Powerway but only for document control and auditing, we really like the package. What we are initiating for Preventive maintenance is through visual scheduling. The plan is when we create a job we add an "M" to the begining of the job number. Then schedule out the maintenance shutdowns. The intent being that maintenane is another JOB in the factory taking up materials and machine time.

I have used this approach with other integrated ERP packages, but we haven't
had time to try it yet with Vantage. How do you handle maintenance cycles?
In other words, how do you know when to create a job for preventive
maintenance? Is this data maintained off-line?
