Using Online Help

You can record additional details of the engineering document, like budget information (Part cost, resource cost, etc.), warranty details and record the change in weight, moment and the electrical load after executing the engineering document. You can also indicate either,

On selecting the tab, the system:

Tree Search

If the user selects the “More Information’ tab and selects any record in the tree, the system transfers the corresponding Eng. Doc # to the header in the right pane and retrieves the relevant information to the respective fields in the tabs. The screen is switched to ‘Create’ / ‘Edit’ / ‘Revise’ mode, based on the status of the Eng. Doc. # / MCR selected in the tree.

Budget details

Part Cost

The cost of the part (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Resource Cost

The cost of the resource (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Recurring Cost

The recurring cost incurred for the engineering document (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Other Cost

Any other cost details pertaining to the budgetary information (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Kit Cost

The cost of the kit (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Total Cost

The system displays the Total Cost as the sum of part cost, resource cost, kit cost and other cost, if no value is entered (Integer). Ensure that the value entered in this field is positive.

Budgetary

Any remarks pertaining to the budgetary information.

Warranty details

Coverage

Use the drop down list box to specify the warranty coverage of the Component, Engine or Aircraft. The system lists the options “Claimable” or “Non-Claimable”.

  • "Claimable" – The Expenses that can be claimed for the Component, Engine or Aircraft.

  • "Non-Claimable" – The Expenses that cannot be claimed for the Component, Engine or Aircraft.

By default, the system displays the value saved for the reference parent “Engineering document #” and “Revision #” combination on page launch. If no value is saved, the system defaults “Non-Claimable”.

Applicability

Indicates the applicability of the warranty. The system provides the following check boxes:

  • "Material" – Check this box to specify if the warranty claim is applicable for the Material.

  • "Labour" – Check this box to specify if the warranty claim is applicable for the Labour.

  • "Facilities" – Check this box to specify if the warranty claim is applicable for the Facility.

  • “Miscellaneous” – Check this box to specify if the warranty claim is applicable for options other than “Material”, “Labour” and “Facilities”.

By default, the system leaves all these check boxes unchecked.

Ensure that at least one check box is selected, if the “Warranty Coverage” value is selected as "Claimable".

Remarks

Any remarks related to the warranty.

Weight & Balance

Change in Weight

The change in the weight of the aircraft after the execution of the engineering document (Decimal).

Change in Moment

The change in moment of the aircraft after the execution of the engineering document (Decimal).

Change in Electrical Load

The change in the electrical load of the aircraft after the execution of the engineering document (Alphanumeric).

Note: The system retrieves the corresponding parameters UOM for the above fields. The parameters for the aircraft weight and moment are identified in the “Set Base Parameters” activity of the “Aircraft” business component.

Additional

Test Flight Required?

Check this box to indicate to specify whether a trial run is required for the aircraft, after the changes are carried out.

Follow-up Action Required?

Check this box to indicate the follow-up action is required after performing the engineering document.

Generate PR automatically?

Check this box to generate the purchase request during the release of the engineering document.

If this box is checked, the system copies the following details to the “Plan Material Requirement” page on clicking the “Save” pushbutton:

  • The maintenance bases (organization unit) of all the maintenance objects (Aircraft or part, depending on the effectivity of the Eng. Doc.), as defined in the “Aircraft” business component.

  • All the new parts specified in the “Edit Part Requirements” and “Edit Resource Requirements” pages.

If this box is unchecked, the system deletes the associated plan material details for that Eng. Doc. # and Rev. # combination, on clicking the “Save” pushbutton.

On saving the details, this check box is disabled, if the Eng. Doc. # in the header is in “Released: status and if the user selects 'Edit' mode.

User Defined Details

Ref. Doc. Type

Use the drop-down list box to select the type of the reference document. The system lists all the document types defined in ‘Active’ status in the "Create Reference Document Type" activity of the “Common Master” business component.

The system defaults the value, if already saved for the Eng. Doc. # and Rev. # combination. Else, the system leaves the field blank.

Ref. Doc. #

The number identifying the document that must be referred during engineering document execution.

User Status

Use the drop-down list box to assign a user-defined status for the engineering document. The system lists all the active quick codes that are of type “Eng. Doc - User Status” as defined in the “Create Quick Codes” activity of the current business component, in alphabetical order. If the User Status of the transferred Eng. Doc. is ‘Inactive’, that User Status is also listed.

The system defaults the value, if already saved for the Eng. Doc. # and Rev. # combination. Else, the system leaves the field blank.
