Add Usage based maintenance type: traveled distance

Explanation on the maintenance program using the traveled distance to define when maintenance should be done.

If you use this maintenance type to create a maintenance program the definition of when to do maintenance is based on a to-be-defined length or distance the asset has traveled (based on the journeys).You can set the traveled distance for maintenance as km or mi.
Note: By default the beeline distance is taken to calculate the traveled distance in this maintenance type. If you want to take the shortest path or another distance calculation, contact Sensolus support.
