Click the “Record Resolution Details” pushbutton to update the details of the discrepancy or the maintenance report.

The system performs the following on clicking the “Record Resolution Details” pushbutton:

If the action is set as “Transferred”, the system generates a new discrepancy or maintenance report number for the part in “Pending“ status in the “Discrepancy Processing” business component, based on the “Numbering Type for Discrepancy #” set in the “Set Options” activity of the “Component Work Order” business component.
Updates the status of the discrepancy or maintenance report as “Pending” in the “Discrepancy Processing” business component, if the “Action” is set as “To Process” in the multiline.
Updates the status of the component work order from “Scheduled” to “In Progress”, if the details of the discrepancy or maintenance report has been updated.
If the “Action” is set to a value other than “To Process” or “Canceled”, the system generates a non-standard task and updates its description with the remedial action entered. Also, the system updates the planning status as “Unplanned”, and the expense type of the task being added as the expense type of the CWO.
For customer based work orders, the system updates the task authorization status based on the following conditions:

Updates the status as “Not Required”, if the “Authorization of Work Order” field is set as “Not Required” in the “Set Options” activity of the “Component work Order” business component, and if the “Approval of Additional Work Scope” field is set to “Not Required” in the “Customer Order” business component.
Updates the status as “Pending Customer Authorization”, if the “Authorization of Work Order” is set as “Not Required in the “Set Options” activity of the “Component Work Order” business component and if the “Approval of Additional Work Scope” field is set as either “Required” or “As Required” in the “Customer Order” business component
Updates the status as “Pending Authorization”, if the “Authorization of Work Order” is set as “Required”, irrespective of the value set in the “Approval of Additional work Scope” field.

For work orders that are not customer based, the system performs the following:

Updates the authorization status of the task as “Pending Authorization”, if the “Authorization of Work Order” field is set as “Required” in the “Set Options” activity of the “Component work Order” business component.
Updates the status of the task as “Not Required”, if the “Authorization of Work Order” field is set as “Not Required” in the “Set Options” activity of the “Component work Order” business component.
Adds the newly generated task to CWO in “Fresh” status, if the authorization status of the work unit is set as “Required” or “Pending Customer Authorization”. If the authorization status of the work unit is set as “Not Required”, then the system adds the task in the status as that of the CWO.

If the task # is added to a CWO that has customer order reference, and if the athorization status of the task being added is in either “Pending Customer Authorization” or “Not Required”, then the system updates the Work Unit information corresponding to the CWO to the customer order.
If the task being added to the CWO is in “Scheduled” status and if the expense type of the CWO is “Capital”, then the system updates the committed amount corresponding to the CAPEX proposal number in the “Asset Planning” business component.

Reporting discrepancy resolution details for a component - An overview

In this page, you can process the discrepancies or the maintenance report recorded for a component. Discrepancy is an observed deviation from normal functioning of an aircraft component or system. When there are more number of discrepancies reported against one component , they can be grouped under a single Maintenance Report with the definition of work units.

You can process the discrepancies for the component work order, only if

The status of the component work order is “Scheduled”, “In-Progress” or “Completed”.
The component for which the CWO is raised is not attached to any aircraft.

When discrepancies are observed in a component, they are immediately reported and the component is replaced. A work order is created for the removed component. Once the discrepancy or the maintenance report is rectified, you can use this page to update the status of the discrepancy. The status of the discrepancy can be set as “Closed” if it has been rectified, or “Pending”, if it is yet to be rectified.

You are also provided with the option of updating the status of the discrepancy or maintenance report, in the “Discrepancy Processing” business component, by checking the “Confirm Action” box.

Prerequisite

Select “Transferred” in the “Action” drop-down list box to transfer the discrepancy or maintenance report to another component.

Note: If the discrepancy or maintenance report is transferred to another part # / Serial # / Component #, then a new discrepancy is generated against the Transferred to: part #/ Serial # / component # in the “Discrepancy Processing” business component.
