This page allows you to update the parameter values.

The “Update Parameter Values” page appears.

The system displays the following:

Date & Time Format

The format in which the date and time fields are displayed. This format is displayed from the "User Preferences" business component based on the login user ID. In case the format is not defined, the system displays the date and time format from the “Enterprise Modeling” business component by default.

The system displays the following in the “Log Details” group box:

Execution Ref #

The number identifying the execution reference for which the parameter values must be updated.

The system displays the document type before the execution reference number.

Journey Log #

The number identifying the journey log for which the parameter values must be updated.

Aircraft Reg #

The registration number of the aircraft for which parameter values must be updated.

Execution Station

The station where the execution reference has been reported on the sheet.

Parameter Type

Use the drop-down list box to select the parameter type. The system lists the options “Consumption”, “Range”, “Attribute” and “Technical”.The system leaves the field blank by default, when this page appears.

Update Option

Use the drop-down list box to select the level at which the parameter value must be updated:

  • Aircraft – Select this option if you wish to update parameters defined at the aircraft level.

  • Task – Select this option if you wish to update parameters defined at the task and sub task level.

By default, the system sets this field to “Aircraft”.

Work Unit #

The number identifying the work unit that is performed on the aircraft (Alphanumeric, 40).

Task #

The number identifying the task or standard procedure that is carried out for updating the parameter values (Alphanumeric, 5).

Sub Task #

The number identifying the sub task for the specified task (Alphanumeric, 25).

If the “Update Option” selected is “Task” and “Parameter Type” is left blank, the system performs the following:

Note: If any non standard parameters are mapped to the task, the system retrieves the string “Non Standard” in the “Parameter Type” column in the multiline.

Def. As Of Date

The default date on which the parameter value was updated (Date Format). The system displays the current server date by default.

Def. As Of Time

The default time at which the parameter value was updated (Time Format). The system displays the current server time by default.

The system displays the following fields in the “Parameter Details” multiline:

Work Unit #

The number identifying the task or standard procedure.

Task #

The number identifying the task.

Sub Task #

The sub task associated to the task.

Parameter

The identifier of the parameter.

Parameter Type

The type of parameter, which could be “Attribute”, “Technical”, ”Range” or “Consumption”.

Note: Ensure that “Updated Value” is entered, if “Updated Date” and “Updated Time” are specified.

If “Updated Date” and “Updated Time” fields are left blank, ensure that “Def. As Of Date” and “Def. As Of Time” fields are entered.

The system displays the following fields in the multiline:

Last Updated Time

The time at which the parameter was last updated.

Parameter Description

The textual description of the parameter.

Work Unit Description

The textual description of the work unit.

Task Description

The textual description of the task.

Note: Ensure that at least one record exists in the multiline. Also ensure that the Execution Ref # and Task are not in “Cancelled “or  “Closed” status.

The system updates the details of the parameter value, and the date and time for each parameter, at the aircraft or the task level against the execution reference number, based on the update option.

If the update date and time is earlier than the actual start date and time of the execution reference, the system updates the “Actual Start Date & Time” with the update date and time. If the update date and time is later than the actual end date and time of the execution reference, the system updates the “Actual End Date & Time” with the update date and time.

The system sends an Alert e-mail to the concern user, if the updated value for the parameter of type “Range“ goes beyond the range limit as defined for the aircraft in the Aircraft component.
