Anil K Patel commented on OFBIZ-1851:
-------------------------------------

Contents from David's email back when I did implementation.


On the ProductMaint entity these fields are meant to represent the interval at 
which the maintenance represented by the record needs to be performed, like 
once every 3,000 miles, or once every 100 hours, or whatever. If there is a 
meter configured it should be associated with that meter using the 
intervalMeterType.

On the FixedAssetMaint entity, which is a record of maintenance done (whereas 
on the product one it is a schedule for maintenance needing to be done), those 
fields would represent the actual numbers for the instance in which the 
maintenance was done, and are meant to come from whatever meter on the asset 
that is used to determine when that particular maintenance is needed, like the 
mile meter or hour meter as mentioned above.

Other meter readings can be attached to the FixedAssetMaint record, but these 
primary meter fields and values are what would be used to determine the next 
time that maintenance needs to be done so are fields on the main record rather 
than something joined in on another entity.

I hope that clears up the use and such that I had in mind for these. If there 
is a particular part of this that I still haven't explained adequately, please 
let me know.
