Configuring Reset Maintenance Item actions

Note: Axeda Preventive Maintenance is a separately licensed application. If the Platform is not licensed for it, the Preventive Maintenance application and associated tools and features will not display in the Axeda® Connected Product Management Applications. (Contact Axeda Technical Support for more information.) Also, your ability to reset maintenance targets is controlled by user group privileges. Contact your Platform administrator if you have questions about your privileges.

Using the Action wizard in the Axeda® Configuration application, you can configure the Reset Maintenance Item action (Category: Enterprise actions) for those maintenance items that you want to reset manually from the Asset dashboard or automatically through a Rule.

Warning! When moving backward and forward through the wizard, use the wizard's Back and Next buttons. Do NOT use your browser's back and forward tools.
