Processing Status	Use the drop-down list box to select the processing status of the maintenance report. The system lists the options “None”, “Under Analysis” and “Analyzed”. The system retrieves all maintenance reports that are of the status selected here. Leave this field blank to retrieve all the discrepancies, irrespective of their processing status.

You can enter the number in full or specify it partially using the “*” character. The system retrieves all the maintenance reports raised for the aircraft registration number entered here.
ATA #	The ATA chapter on which the maintenance report has been raised (Alphanumeric, 16). You can enter the number in full or specify it partially using the “*” character. The system retrieves all the maintenance reports raised for the ATA chapter entered here.
Deferral Type	Use the drop-down list box to specify the deferral type for the discrepancy. The system displays the options “MEL”, “CDL”, "DMI" and “Others”. The system retrieves maintenance reports, which have discrepancies of the specified deferral type. By default, the system leaves this field blank.
Value Basis	Use the drop-down list box to specify the basis on which deferral values have to be retrieved. The system lists the options “Due Values less than”, “Due Values equal to” and “Due values greater than”. This field is set to “Due value less than”.
Deferral Value – FH	The deferral value for the discrepancy in terms of flight hours (Numeric). Based on the option selected in the “Value basis” field, the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – flight hours match the value entered here. For example, if you have set the “Value Basis” field to “Due Values equal to” and entered 50 in this field, then the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – flight hours is equal to 50.
Deferral Value – FC	The deferral value for the discrepancy in terms of flight cycles (Numeric). Based on the option selected in the “Value basis” field, the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – flight cycles match the value entered here. For example, if you have set the “Value Basis” field to “Due Values equal to” and entered 10 in this field, then the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – flight cycles is equal to 10.
Deferral Value – EH	The deferral value for the discrepancy in terms of block hours (Numeric). Based on the option selected in the “Value basis” field, the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – block hours match the value entered here. For example, if you have set the “Value Basis” field to “Due Values equal to” and entered 25 in this field, then the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – block hours is equal to 25.
Deferral Value – LC	The deferral value for the discrepancy in terms of landing cycles (Numeric). Based on the option selected in the “Value basis” field, the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – landing cycles match the value entered here. For example, if you have set the “Value Basis” field to “Due Values equal to” and entered 15 in this field, then the system will retrieve all discrepancies whose deferral value – landing cycle is equal to 15.
Time Due : Till Date	Enter the due deferral date in this field (Date format). The system will retrieve all discrepancies, which have to be processed with the date mentioned in this field.
