Recording dependent system condition information

This page allow you to create a unique number for the DSC and provide a description for it. Tell me more

Select the "Create Dependent System Condition List" link under the “Maintenance Task” business component.

The “Create Dependent System Condition Information” page appears.

Enter the following fields in the “DSC Details” group box:

DSC #

A unique number that identifies the dependent system condition (Alphanumeric, 15). Mandatory. This can be a combination of characters and digits. Ensure that the number is unique for the organizational unit.

Copy From

The DSC number, the details of which are to be copied into the DSC that is currently being defined (Alphanumeric, 25). The system allows you to copy all the dependent systems and their desired condition from the DSC number entered in this field.

Help facility available.

DSC Description

The textual description of the DSC (Alphanumeric, 150). Mandatory.

Zoom facility available

Enter the following fields in the “Dependent System Desired Condition Details” multiline:

Seq #	The sequence in which the dependent system condition should be checked for, before executing a maintenance task (Integer). Ensure that the sequence number is a positive integer and is unique in the multiline.
	If you have left the sequence number blank, the system automatically assigns a sequence number to each of them, in the order in which they are entered in the multiline, on clicking the “Create DSC” pushbutton. Ensure that you do not leave it blank for any of the dependent systems occurring in between. For any random entry of sequence numbers, the system assigns continuous sequence numbers starting from "1".
Dependent system	The name of the dependent system (Alphanumeric, 255).
Desired Condition	The desired condition of the dependent system to be checked for, before executing a maintenance task (Alphanumeric, 15).

Enter the following fields in the “Reference Document Details” group box below the multiline:

Ref. Document No 1	The reference document that you wish to attach to the dependent system condition (Alphanumeric, 40).
File Name 1	The name of the file that contains the reference document (Alphanumeric, 50).] Help Facility Available.
Click the "View File" link alongside to view the file details. Enter the following fields:
Ref. Document No 2	The reference document that you wish to attach to the dependent system condition (Alphanumeric, 40)
File Name 2	The name of the file that contains the reference document (Alphanumeric, 50) Help facility Available.

Click the" View File" link alongside to view the file details.

Check the box in the “Select” column of the multiline to mark the dependent system for deletion.

Click the Delete icon in the tool bar above the multiline, to delete the dependent systems selected in the multiline.
If you wish to insert dependent systems in the DSC list and assign sequence number for them, click the “Re-Number” pushbutton to rearrange the existing rows in the ascending order of the sequence number. The system regenerates the sequence number in multiples of five, thereby enabling you to specify the sequence number for the newly added dependent system.
Click the “Create DSC” pushbutton to create the DSC number.

Note: The system creates dependent system condition and sets the status of the created DSC numbers as "Active". Also, the system generates the sequence numbers for those rows for which the sequence number has not been specified.

Recording dependent system condition information – An overview

You can enter a unique number for the DSC and provide a description for it. You can list the different dependent systems and their desired condition. You can assign a sequence number to each of the dependent systems and their desired condition to be checked for, before carrying out a maintenance task. If you wish to insert dependent systems in the DSC that is already defined, the system allows you to regenerate the sequence number in multiples of five and assign an appropriate sequence number to the newly added dependent system.

The system also allows you to copy the details from a dependent system condition number that is already defined. You can also provide references to documents or drawings that depict the state of the dependent system. The system assigns the “Active” status as soon as the DSC number is created and sets the creation date and time to the server date and time.

What you can do in this page

Generate sequence number for dependent systems

You have the option of entering the sequence number or generating the sequence number automatically for the various dependent systems in the multiline.

To enter the sequence number manually, enter the “Seq #” field in the “Sub Task” multiline.
To generate the sequence number automatically, leave the “Seq #” field blank in all the rows in the multiline.

The system automatically assigns a sequence number to each of them, in the order in which they are entered in the multiline, on clicking the “Create DSC” button.

If you wish to insert sub tasks in the multiline and assign sequence number for them, click the “Re-Number” pushbutton to rearrange the existing rows in the ascending order of the sequence number. The system regenerates the sequence number in multiples of five, thereby enabling you to specify the sequence number for the newly added sub tasks.
