📅 Maintenance Scheduling

Maintenance Scheduling That
Runs Itself

Set up recurring maintenance schedules with flexible patterns — weekly, monthly, quarterly, or custom. PPM automatically generates ServiceM8 jobs when visits are due and gives you a clear service forecast of your upcoming workload.

Flexible Recurrence Patterns

Define maintenance schedules that match how your business actually works — from simple weekly visits to complex custom intervals.

📆

Weekly

Perfect for high-frequency maintenance like cleaning contracts, fire alarm testing, or weekly equipment checks.

🗓️

Monthly

Ideal for routine service visits — HVAC filter changes, pest control inspections, or monthly safety checks.

📊

Quarterly

Great for seasonal maintenance cycles — air conditioning servicing, fire extinguisher inspections, or water treatment.

📅

Semi-Annual & Annual

For less frequent but critical maintenance — annual gas safety checks, boiler servicing, or electrical testing.

🔧

Custom Intervals

Need every 6 weeks or every 13 weeks? Define any custom interval to match manufacturer recommendations or contract terms.

📑

Multi-Schedule Contracts

Attach multiple schedules to a single contract — for example, monthly filter changes plus an annual deep clean, all under one agreement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What recurrence patterns does PPM support?

PPM supports weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual recurrence patterns. You can also create custom intervals — for example, every 6 weeks or every 13 weeks. Each schedule can have its own pattern, and you can attach multiple schedules to a single contract for complex maintenance programmes.

How does automatic job generation work?

When a scheduled visit is due, PPM can automatically create a job in ServiceM8 with the correct client, site address, job description, and category pre-filled. You control how far in advance jobs are generated and can also generate them manually with one click from the schedule view.

Can I send visit reminders to my clients?

Yes. PPM can send automated email reminders to your clients before a scheduled maintenance visit. You configure how many days in advance the reminder is sent and customise the email template with your branding and visit details.

What is the service forecast?

The service forecast gives you a forward-looking view of all upcoming maintenance visits across every contract. Filter by date range, client, or schedule type to see your workload for the weeks and months ahead — helping you plan staffing, materials, and vehicle logistics.
