Hello all,  in Preventive Maintenance I was trying to use the check boxes on the days under the Seasonal Dates tab to prevent a PM from generating on certain days.

The PM was due Sunday, 9/13 7:00pm (9/14 12am UTC in database).  "Schedule Early on Frequency Conflict?" is not checked, but the PM has already generated on September 8 (9/8).  

1. Why did Maximo generate this early?  Generated automatically with the pmwogen cron task.
2. Also, will the Seasonal Date go by database or UI time?  If so, maybe Sunday needs to be checked so that it generates for 9/13 7 PM, but either way, I'm unsure why it has already generated.

I have the feeling here the cause is the Lead Time on the PM record.  It may be "due" (that ends up mapping to the Target Start and Target Finish on the Work Order it generates), but if you have Lead Time on the PM it will "create" the Work Order ahead of time -- to allow for planning, scheduling, procurement, etc.
