Narrative:
Aircraft; found idg (integrated drive generator) oil level not even on the site glass; I serviced idg to full. This is a trip going on a flight to ZZZ. If this idg failed the flight crew would have to run the APU; if APU failed; the last thing is the other engine to support the electric.
