Working with Life Cycle Maintenance Schedule Profiles

A maintenance schedule profile identifies maintenance tasks that are expected to occur over the life span of an improvement. Your agency can set up different profiles for different types of improvements. When a profile is associated with a cost estimate, it enables you to compare and analyze the life cycle costs involved for different designs.

The Life Cycle Maintenance Schedule Profile Overview lists all the reference maintenance schedule profiles in the system. To access the overview, click the Life Cycle Maintenance Schedule Profiles link in the Estimation component.

Click Show first 10 or enter criteria in the Quick Find search box to locate a specific life cycle maintenance schedule profile in the list. The system displays a list of rows for profiles that match your search criteria.

Each row includes an Actions button and current values for these fields:

Profile Name

To enter or change the Obsolete Date for a profile, click in the field and enter the date as needed, or you can click the calendar icon to choose a date from the calendar.
