Enable/Disable Revision Control

Explanation

Use this activity to enable/ disable revision control on an existing PM action, however, it is normally done before a PM action is started.

When Revision Control is ON;

A PM action revision that is in active status can only be updated with restrictions if revision control is enabled and major changes such as entering new jobs, changing criteria associated with maintenance plan, changing maintenance organization, etc, cannot be performed.
You are able to keep track of the changes performed on PM actions as versions.

When Revision Control is OFF;

It is possible to make changes to a PM action without having to create new PM action revision.
Almost all types of changes are allowed but you will lose control of all changes done.

A PM action revision in Active or Obsolete status should exist in the system.

As a result of this activity a journal entry is created in the PM action that the revision control has been enabled/ disabled.

Open the PM Action window, and query for the PM action for which you want to enable/ disable the revision control. (Alternatively you can directly query for the revision itself).
Right-click and then click Revision Control.

Note: The "√" next to Revision Control right mouse option indicates that the revision control is enabled on PM action.
