EMM: Blackout Period Still Calculated As Active Days In Preventive Maintenance Schedules (Doc ID 1601646.1)

Goal

An enhancement is requested to allow for selection of a date range that PM Schedules should ignore for time based calculations.  For example, if a PM schedule requires a work order to be created for an asset every 90 days, but due to abnormal circumstances the asset is not used, then the PM schedules should not calculate for a given period.  We currently experienced an issue with a 76 day work stoppage.  Those 76 days should be omitted from the calculations of Work Order creation for PM Schedules based on time.

This will keep the administrative effort down considerably when we encounter work stoppages, etc. Other companies surely will experience strikes, natural disaster conditions, or other extenuating circumstances where assets lay unused for days, weeks, or even months at a time.
