Break/Re-build Kit – A summary of the activity

This activity enables warehouse clerks to break or re-build kit parts.

Breaking kit parts: Normally, you break a kit part for the following reasons:

• Unable to acquire requisite constituent parts

• Shelf life expired for at least one of the constituent part serial / lot as on current date.

• Tasks for components of the kit part overdue for execution (Next Schedule Date for the task prior or equal to the current date).

• The condition of one or more constituent part serial/lot is “Unserviceable”.

• Urgent requirement of constituent parts for maintenance, such as AOG.

• Constituent parts do not match the BOM Part # or its alternate (based on alternate option at the BOM Part # level) in the kit.

Breaking of a kit part involves taking away quantities of constituent parts known as break quantity from a kit part and returning them to a specific zone/bin in the warehouse.

The process of breaking a kit part (serial #) is associated with a Break Kit transaction and involves the following steps:

• Breaking the kit: The status of the transaction is set to “Fresh”.

• Confirming the kit break: The status of the transaction is set to “Confirmed”.

You can also cancel breakup of the kit part that exists in any of the above-listed statuses.

Rebuilding kit parts: A kit part is rebuilt for the following reasons:

• If it was not completely built

• If it was earlier broken down

As part of re-building, you allocate required quantities of constituent parts to the kit part.

Similar to building a kit part, rebuilding involves the following tasks:

• Allocating constituent parts to the kit part

• Confirming allocation of constituent parts

• Complete building of the kit part
