Create activities for PM schedules on PM plans to conveniently add activities for PM schedules. The Activities page of the PM Plans form functions in the same manner as the Activities page of the PM Schedules form. See Defining activities of PM work orders.
The functionality of the Activities page of the PM Plans form is unlike the functionality of the Equipment page of the PM Plans form because additions/revisions made on the Activities page affect only the selected PM schedule and do not affect/update all of the PM schedules on the PM plan. See Adding equipment to PM plans.
