Import Maintenance Work Orders

This process retrieves all obstructive work orders from IFS/Maintenance for a given site, work center, resource, tool, or tool instance. It then converts those work orders to maintenance resource breaks. Unlike a manual resource break, which is created by a user, a maintenance resource break is automatically created by the system and cannot be rescheduled beyond its need date in the Scheduling Server.

As part of the retrieval process, the system includes the ID number of the obstructive work order. This ID number appears in the Work Order field in various windows containing data about resource breaks.
