What status must a job plan be in to associate it with an applicable record?

To associate a job plan with an applicable record in Maximo, the job plan must be in an ACTIVE status. An ACTIVE job plan indicates that it is currently valid and can be utilized in work orders and other related records. This status signifies that the plan is ready for implementation and meets the necessary criteria for being associated with tasks within Maximo.

When a job plan is in an INACTIVE status, it cannot be linked to new records as it is not considered valid for planning or execution. Similarly, a PENDING status suggests that the job plan is not yet finalized or approved for use, which restricts its applicability. A COMPLETED status indicates that the job plan has already been executed and is no longer in a state to be linked with new tasks. Thus, having the job plan in an ACTIVE status allows it to function effectively within the Maximo system, ensuring smooth operations and accurate planning.
