Modifying component replacement transaction information – An overview
This page allows you to modify the component replacement transactions. You can modify the source document type, the source document number, and the station where the replacement must be done.
Note: If the component replacement transaction is in “Removed” status, you cannot modify the source document type, source document number, station, and the date and time of removal.
The system displays the general details of the component and the removed part number and the serial number. You can modify the tag number attached to the component after removing the component from the aircraft. The condition of the part, code identifying the employee that carried out the component removal and the component removal date and time can also be modified.
You can modify the type of removal, that is, whether the component was removed due to a problem in the same component, or it was removed for accessibility reasons. The actual reasons for removing the component can be modified.
The system also allows you to modify the following details before confirming the component replacement transaction:
the source of the installed component
the number identifying the installed part
serial number of the installed part
component ID of the part number and the serial number
the date and time of component replacement
the code identifying the employee who carried out the component replacement.
You can also view the error log (if any) recorded for the component replacement transaction.
Specify the mode of recording the component replacement transaction
Modify the source document type for component replacement transaction
Modify the condition of the removed component
Modify the removal type of component
Modify the removal as basic and non basic
Modify the source of installed component
Cancel component replacement transaction
Specify the mode of recording the component replacement transaction
Set the “Record Mode” field to “Normal”, if you wish to execute the component replacement transaction normally without recording any errors.
Set the “Record Mode” field to “With Error”, if you wish to record the errors encountered during component replacement transaction.
Modify the source document type for component replacement transaction
The component replacement transaction can be effected through a technical log, component work order, hangar work order or any other type of document. The technical log is for maintenance work at line station. The component work order is for maintenance at shops. The Hangar work order is for maintenance work at hangars. You can specify the type of the source document that serves as a reference document for the transaction and the source document number. You can modify the source document type and source document number only when the transaction is in “Fresh”, "Error-Removed" or "Error-Replaced" status.
Set the “Source Document Type” to “Technical Log” to indicate that the work execution document is generated for line maintenance.
Set the “Source Document Type” to “Component Work Order” to indicate that the work order is generated for shop maintenance.
Set the “Source Document Type” to “Hangar Work Order” to indicate that the work order is generated for Hangar Maintenance.

The schedules can be based on intervals, consumption or predictive triggers.
The unscheduled removal indicates that the component is removed to carry out maintenance activity based on the outcome of equipment parameter inspections or on the breakdown of the equipment. Cases of robbery can be categorized as “Others”.
