A system for configuring generic maintenance activity scheduling is provided. For example, user input may help define a maintenance process for a plurality of mobile drive units of the physical workspace. The maintenance process may be defined through a configuration of activity templates and input templates. Input may be received to configure maintenance activities and the system may automatically correlate failure rules with the activity template. The system may generate the configurable electronic instructions for the mobile drive units and transmit them with the failure rules, if generated, to one or more mobile drive units of the physical workspace. When the one or more mobile device units receive the configurable electronic instruction, the mobile drive units may operate in accordance with the configurable electronic instruction.
