Options See Section 11 on Planned Maintenance for more details on the following options.

Show Standards

If you wish to use standards as part of your performance monitoring and reporting processes, check this option.

Show Life Cycle Factors

If your stock is geographically spread, or there are particular local situtations which dictate that certain elements may not achieve their recommended life cycles.   This option allows the life cycles of elements in particular properties to varied from the standard Schedule of Rates life cycle. For instance, a sea front property could have a Life Cycle Factor of 0.75 applied, indicating that the elements will reach the end of their serviceable life more quickly.

Show Spot Work Items

Spot work items are one-off work items which are intended to bring an element up to a normal serviceable standard.

Show Cyclical Work Items

If you wish to include cyclical or overhaul work items to support the main programmed replacements, check this option.

Cyclical WI Knock Out 

The interaction between programmed and cyclical work items can be refined by determining how near a programmed replacement a cyclical work item is allowed to occur. If a value of 2 (years) is entered, then a cyclical work item falling within 2 years of a programmed replacement will not be created.  If you want to make use of this, check this option.

Match Decoration Year

If you wish to make all the cyclical or overhaul work items synchronise with the external decoration cycle, check this option.

Decoration Year 

The number of years between external decorations.

Auto Calc First Renewal 

When new work items are added,Quadpro can calculate the anticipated life remaining of elements based on the last rehabilitation date or date of construction of the property, whichever is the youngest. This works best on longer life cycle elements such as roof finishes and windows and doors. On some shorter life internal elements, or decorations generally, it can lead to a negative year.  However, the surveyors carrying out the condition survey are normally requested to estimate the remaining life and it is a simple task to overwrite the negative year with the surveyors (or other) estimate.  Domaine automatically highlights negative year’s in red on data entry and will not allow the user to tab out of the field, or save the record, until a sensible figure is entered.

Maximum Plan Length

The last year for which to generate program or cyclical work items.
