Using Suppression in a PM Schedule
I have a PM schedule definition that I would like to implement. The schedule contains multiple activities, each of which is repeated every:
2000 hours
4000 hours
8000 hours
16000 hours
Since these overlap, I would like to only allow the least frequent activity to create a work order. For example, at 16,000 hours and 32,000 hours, the only work order that I would like to create is the 16,000-hour work order. I had planned on setting up the following rules:
- 16000-hour activity suppresses 8000, 4000, and 2000
- 8000-hour activity suppresses 4000 and 2000
- 4000-hour activity suppresses 2000
but that is not allowed. An activity may only be suppressed by one other activity ("one can only be suppressed by one").
