• Key Concepts: 
  Scheduling type is a feature in SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) that allows users to define the scheduling of maintenance activities. It is used to determine the frequency of maintenance activities and the duration of each activity. Scheduling types are used to define the intervals between maintenance activities, such as daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Scheduling types are used to define the intervals between maintenance activities. To create a scheduling type, go to the PM Plant Maintenance module and select “Create Scheduling Type” from the menu. Enter the desired interval (daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly) and enter the duration of each activity. Once you have saved your scheduling type, it can be assigned to any maintenance activity. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a scheduling type, it is important to consider the frequency and duration of each activity. For example, if you are creating a weekly scheduling type, you should consider how long each activity should take and how often it should be performed. This will help ensure that your maintenance activities are performed at the right intervals.
