We want to create all of our PM work orders on a weekly basis every Friday for the next week. How should I set the PM options from the organization table? In the field designated 'Generate work orders due on the current date plus this number of days' should I enter 6? I figure if we generate them every Friday, this will also generate everything due between that Friday and the following Thursday. Is this correct?

I would enter a start date for next Friday, then a frequency of 7 days with a lead time of 1 day.

If I enter 7, won't that generate all work orders due on that day (Friday) on through to the following Friday?

So put your lead time at 7 days...Work orders will generate will generate 7 days before they are due on every Friday?

GOTJA's idea seems best to me, you will generate on friday, with TARGET START DATE of Monday, and TARGET FINISH DATE Sunday. Easy enough to test in a sandbox.
