To do Fabric Maintenance (FM) in IMS PEI, you needs to have a FM Role assigned in IMS. (This is done in the Security Settings).
FM Roles
There are two FM User Roles (editor and viewer) in IMS PEI. Users with a FM Role have a lite / decluttered IMS PEI view, i.e., they see only the needed IMS PEI menus and functions.
With the FABRIC MAINTENANCE Role you can:
Create & Edit AREA-FLOCs & assign multiple FLOCs to them.
Create & Edit Equipment (Equipment Group = "AREA").
Create & Edit CAIRs with the FM Checklist (and link to Planned Events). (It is also possible to create Inspection Schedules.)
Create & Edit ECHs with the FM Checklist.
View a FM KPI Dashboard (and later 2D/3D Maps).
With the Fabric Maintenance Viewer Role you can:
Read (but not edit) all of the above.
