Ability to set up part manufacturing information and facilitate parts manufacture through Make Work Order Reference: AHBG- 3017 Background Part manufacturing module is built to address the needs of Manufacturing Planning and Control in aviation manufacturing facilities. The product offers an array of features for estimating, execution of tasks, costing, lot and serial tracking, purchasing/ receiving, back flushing, material verification and material requirements planning. Part manufacturing addresses many aspects of the manufacturing process. The part could be manufactured from different sources like manufacturing in- house, sub contract or purchase and stocked in multiple stocking points and warehouses. Part manufacturing helps in efficient planning considering the capacities and stock availability across locations and warehouses. Part manufacturing covers the Make- to- order environments including products, which are finished after receipt of a customer or internal demands. The final product is usually a combination of standard parts and parts custom designed to meet the special needs of the customer. Change Details Two new components Product Structure and Process Plan are added under new BPC Manufacturing Setup. Exhibit 1: Illustrates the New Component and BPC details 8 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Part Manufacturing Information Pre- requisite for manufacturing a part is to define the source as ‘ Make’ in Maintain Planning Information screen. Along with defining the source as ‘ Make’, Manufacturing Information i. e. Lead Time, UoM, Work Center Information, Certificate Information etc. need to be provided prior to creating Make Work Order. A new screen Maintain Manufacturing Information has been provided in the Maintain Planning Information page. This new screen has been developed to provide basic manufacturing information regarding a part with source ‘ Make’. Exhibit 2: Illustrates the Maintain Manufacturing Information screen Bill of Material The entire manufacturing setup in an organization depends on manufacturing of parts. Different raw materials are used to produce sub- assemblies, which are again used in building final products that are saleable. It is also likely that the same part may be produced and stocked in more than one location from different sources. In order to meet the requirements and commitments of customers, planning of raw materials and sub- assemblies that are required in manufacturing is important. For planning to be effective, requisite information about parts such as bill of materials, process plans etc. are required. The Bill Of material ( BOM) provides a hierarchical classification of the constituent parts, which form a product. The BOM shows the material, component parts subassemblies and other parts in a hierarchical structure that represents the grouping of parts on an assembly drawing or the grouping of parts that come together at a stage in the manufacturing process. The quantity requirements of each of the constituent part against the Product Structure ( PS) Part are also mentioned along with. Product Structures Product structures are used for the purpose of defining bills of materials of parts. The product structure is a single level of Bill of material, containing a parent and its immediate child. With the product structure, 9 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution the understanding of the components, which compose a product as well as their attributes, can be represented. User can define Product Structures for parts at each level and integrate these to get the complete bill of materials. The bill of material shows the level- by- level information of all constituent parts required to produce an end product. It is convenient to define one level of information for each part of bill of material as a product structure, i. e. constituent parts and its immediate level constituent parts. Whenever required, the bill of material information for a part can be obtained using the product structures. Create Product Structure: This screen has been provided to create a product structure for a part that is planned to manufacture. Pre- requisite for defining the product structure is to select source as “ Make” for that part in Maintain Planning Information screen under Part Administration business component. “ PS Part”, “ PS class” and “ Effective from” are mandatory controls to define against product structure. Multiple product structures can be defined for a part. All the constituent parts should be added against product structure multiline. In product structure multiline, user can add any constituent part which is mapped to one or all Part sources. The quantity requirements of each of the constituent part against the “ PS Part” are also mentioned in the Total quantity column. If any drawings that are exists for the constituent part, then system will display the value as ‘ Yes’ in the ‘ Drawing exists?’. Exhibit 3: illustrates Manage Product Structure screen Each constituent part can have different “ Sourcing strategy”, which can be either ‘ Inventory’, ‘ Procurement’ or ‘ Make’. This source strategy information will be helpful for while planning of Task – Part requirements. Activate and Inactivate button will get launched once newly created product structure 10 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution details are saved. User can revise the product structure by modifying the constituent part information in the product structure and also needs to provide the effectivity details of the product structure. Once the product structure is revised then the old revision# of the product structure will be updated with the effective to details. Each revision of the product structure can have a unique effective detail and does not overlap with each other. Multiple Product Structures for a part A Part may have more than one product structure of Product Structure Class due to various purposes. A company may have multiple work center facilities at different locations. The manufacturing capacities differ from location to location. For example, a location may have access to more resources and materials easily than another location. Hence it is capable of producing a part in higher lot sizes at one stretch. Also, depending on the availability of materials, each location may use different parts to manufacture a particular part. The correct product structure is selected based on the validity of the product structure. Currently multiple product structures can be handled by using the concept of PS Class. A Part can have only one default product structure and multiple alternate product structures. Since a part can have multiple product structures, always the default product structure is to be picked up for manufacturing a Part or Work Order execution. Product Structure and Process Plan mapping Manufacturing of Parts requires various constituent parts along with the necessary tasks to be performed to produce the finished product. These input parts are transformed into the finished product using specified process instructions. For this, the sequence in which the materials are routed through different tasks to be performed at each resource are identified. This routing information is captured in a process plan against each Task. The process plans may be part specific or generic. Each constituent part of the product structure will be mapped with the individual task of the process plan. User can map one constituent part to many tasks in the Process plan and also multiple constituent parts can be mapped to one task. Whenever user tries to map the Constituent part with task, then he has to provide the task qty. However the mapping of parts to process plan is optional. 11 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 4: Illustrates the mapping of constituent parts to process plan Copy part A new screen Copy Part has been added to copy the existing product structure constituent details into new product structure. User can search the existing product structure details along with the PS Class and Revision # details. On using “ Copy” button, constituents of selected revision will get copied into the new Product Structure tab. Exhibit 5: Illustrates the copy part screen under Product Structure business component New Revision Whenever user modifies the constituent and part and process plan linkage, then system will display the ‘ New Revision’ popup and mandates the user to provide details like ‘ Effective From’, ‘ Source type’, ‘ Remarks’. Once user enters all these details, the system will save the new revision details and creates a new revision for the product structure automatically. 12 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 6: Illustrates the new revision screen under Product Structure business component Product structure for Phantom parts Phantom parts are a logical grouping of constituent parts that represents a transient assembly. No work orders are generated for them. These are normally consumed as soon as they are produced. However the user may configure them in the bill of material for ease of definition and view. Phantom parts may have one or more product structures. Process plans are however not linked to such product structures, as the process for these phantoms are expected to be defined as part of the process of manufacturing the parent of the phantom part. During planning, if stock of the phantom were available then the system would explode immediately to the constituent parts of the phantom. Work order or Purchase Order for a phantom part is never raised in the system. Viewing the Bill of Material of an part Based on the single level product structure defined by the user, and the parent and child relationship, the system automatically builds up the multi- level bill of material. The user may view or print the multi- level bill of material along with the usage quantities of each of the constituent parts at any level. The Bill of material displays the complete details of all the constituent parts, assemblies, sub- assemblies and raw materials that go into manufacture of the finished product along with the details of the quantities of each constituent part. If multiple product structure exists for that part, the system selects the valid product structure based on the selection of PS. 13 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 7: Illustrates View Bill of Materials screen under Product Structure business component The link “ View BOM” in Quick Links has been provided to view complete bills of material of PS Part. A BOM is unique for PS Part #- PS Class- Revision # combination, so on clicking of “ View BOM” current revision of product structure will be displayed. The BOM information can be shown in two views: one is ‘ Normal View’, which will display all the constituent parts and subassemblies in the hierarchical manner including phantom parts. Another view is ‘ Flattened View’, in which phantom parts will not be displayed; instead all the constituent parts available inside the phantom part will be rolled up to one level higher. Process Plans For manufacturing a part, it is necessary to process the required raw materials on different resources. The constituent materials routed through these tasks are performed to transform these into the desired output. The manufactured part will be obtained after all the required tasks have been performed. A process plan is used to identify the tasks and the sequence in which they are performed to manufacture the part. It is also referred to as routing information. Two types of Process plans can be defined: ‘ Standard’ can be used against any part manufacturing. Another is specific, which will be defined for the specific Part #. Exhibit 8: Illustrates the sequence of Tasks In the above figure, Activities A1, A2 and A3 are required to execute a particular process in the shop floor. Out of these 3 tasks, planning of activity A3 is important because the resource used for it may be a 14 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution bottleneck resource ( A3 can be given a different color if possible). The other 2 tasks are not critical and hence detailed planning may not be necessary for them. Process Plan Sequences Different tasks need to be performed to manufacture a part. For example, to machine the outer race of a ball bearing, user needs to perform three activities namely turning, grinding and finish grinding. Since the flow of constituent parts from one task to the next task of the process plan is important, the sequence of tasks has to be defined properly. To achieve this, sequence numbers are used. A unique operation sequence number identifies each position. The Sequence numbers identifies the Operation sequences in a process plan ( where the tasks are performed). Depending on the flow of materials, tasks are selected in appropriate positions. The bigger the sequence number, the later the task to be performed occurs in the sequence in the process plan. That is if two tasks are in sequence 10 and 20 respectively, then the task in sequence 20 is carried out after the task in sequence 10 is completed. Figure below shows the sequence of three activities namely A1, A2, and A3 in the positions 10, 20 and 30. Exhibit 9: Illustrate the new sequence of Tasks Create Process Plan This screen has been provided to create a process plan. Process plan # is a user defined field, where user has to provide the unique Process Plan #. Process Plan #, PP type Effective From and Operational details are the mandatory detailed to create Process Plan #. Process Plan type can be selected as ‘ Standard’ or ‘ Specific’. If Process Plan type is set as specific, then part # must be selected. Tasks that are already defined in task master should be entered in operational details multiline. If the Task that is not available in the Maintenance Task business component and New Task is selected as ‘ Yes’, then a new Task # will be created in authorized status in the Maintenance Task business component Seq. 10 Seq. 20 Seq. 30 15 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 10: Illustrated Manage process Plan screen under Process Plan business component Existing process plan can be listed automatically by enabling a smart search for the Process Plan # in the Process Plan list. User can also search for the existing process plans in the Process Plan list. Get Related Tasks, will fetch all the Tasks having the relationship with the parent Task. All Task relationships will be considered. Re- Numbering will help to introduce a new task inside the process plan. Note: 1. All the Operational details can be saved against process plan by clicking on Save. 2. The Process Plan details need to be approved. 3. Any modification in the approved process plan creates a new revision # with the new effectivity details. 4. Multiple Active revisions will be available for one process plan, but one process plan is effective for the given date. 5. The process plans need to be inactivated, if it is no more applicable. Copy Operational Details New screen ‘ Copy operational details’ should be added under the Process Plan business component. This screen will help the user to copy the operational details of an existing Process plan to new process plan. Screen will list all the process plan details along with the revision details. 16 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 11: Illustrates Copy process Plan screen New Revision When the operations details of the process plan are modified, system displays the ‘ New Revision’ popup and mandates the user to enter revision information like Effective from, Revision Source and Revision Remarks etc. The system saves the new revision details and generates a new revision for the process plan. Exhibit 12: Illustrates New revision screen Manage Engineering Drawings: Engineering drawings are a complete set of drawings that detail the manufacturing and assembly of products. It is an authorized document to produce the component in the shop floor. It furnishes all 17 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution dimensions, limits and special finishing processes. In addition to the materials used, it should also mention the number of parts that are required for making of the assembled unit. Engineering drawing of a component should also indicate the sub or main assembly where it will be assembled. Engineering drawings can be defined for the Product structure Part #, Constituent Parts defined under Product Structure and also Tasks available in the Process Plan #. These Engg. Drawings can be managed at ‘ Library’ or ‘ Direct’. Library documents are controlled documents, which will be revision controlled managed through Library Management Business process. If the user does not have access to library management, then user can save the drawings directly. A new screen Manage Engineering Drawings is added under Product Structure component. This screen will be placed as a link in the Manage Product Structure and Manage Process Plan screens. Exhibit 13: Illustrates the Manage Engg. Drawings for the PS Part # Note: Important aspects of Engg. Drawings #: 1. Engg. Drawings can be saved against each revision of the Product Structure Part #. 2. Simultaneously drawings can be saved against Task # in the Process Plan and also the Constituent Part in the Manage Product Structure. 3. New set of drawings can be added by new revision # in the Engg. Drawing. 4. Engg. Drawings copied from the library management will not be allowed to be modified in the Manage Engg. Drawings. 5. Any changes with respect to the documents added directly will be allowed to be modified. Plan Materials A new button ‘ Create Make Order’ is added in the Plan Materials screen under Stock Demand Management business component. On click this button, the system will create Shop Work Order having the Job Type ‘ Make’. 18 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Upon creation of Shop Work order, the system will copy the following information to create Make Work Order: 1. MR coverage Information in the Update / split coverage information. ( i. e. Work Order that is created against Material Request will be copied as a MR coverage Information.) 2. Default Product structure effective for the Manufacturing Part will be copied in the Manufacturing Data screen under Make work order. 3. Process Plan details in the product structure will be copied in the Manufacturing Data screen under Make work order. 4. Manage Engg. Drawing details in the product structure effective for the Product Structure, Constituent Part drawings inside the Product Structure and also Tasks in the Process plan. 5. Default Work Center # & Default Exe. Doc Type from the part information. 6. Certificate Information from the part manufacturing information. 7. MR priority will be copied as Work Order priority. 8. MR stock status will be copied to Work order, if the Ownership of the stock status is Internal. If the MR stock status is other than Internal, then Work Order stock status will be updated with the default ownership internal stock status. Work Order changes: Make Work order can be created from the Plan Material screen or user can directly create the Work order from the Plan Work Order activity. As part of part manufacturing changes, two new screens Manufacturing Data and Certificate Information have been added as links in the Plan Work Order screen. Mfr. Serial/ Lot # will be generated automatically while releasing the Work order based on the numbering type selected for the Part # in the Part manufacturing information screen. Manufacturing Data A new screen Manufacturing Data has been added under Shop Work Order business component. Manufacturing Data screen captures the Product Structure details, Process Plan details and Engg. The Drawing information for the Manufacturing of part for the specific date, when a Work order is created from the Plan Material screens, then As on Date will be updated as Work order creation date. User can manually modify the As on date then new Product structure, Process plan details effective for the new date will be copied. 19 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 14: Illustrates Manufacturing Data screen under Plan Work order Manufacturing Data screen provides the necessary information that are required for manufacturing of Part like Product Structure, Process plan and Engg. Drawings, etc. Product Structure Details section displays, default product structure defined in Manage Product Structure screen. Still user can change the PS Class from PS Class combo, if multiple product structures are available for the manufacturing part. Process Plan Details section displays process plan # mapped to the default product structure. If user changes the product structure by modifying the PS class, then process plan mapped to the new product structure will be copied. Still user can use any active Process Plan # having the type Standard based on flag ( i. e. Changes in Work order is allowed) set in Part Manufacturing Information screen under Part Administration business component. If process plan # is changed and on click of Save will cancel the existing tasks and lists the new tasks from the Process Plan # to the task Details multiline in Plan Work Order. If the Task Part requirements are not mapped for the Product Structure and Process plan, then system will map the all the parts to the first operational task copied in the make Work order Drawing Information section displays, list all the drawings defined for PS Part #, its constituent parts and process plan tasks in Manage Engineering Drawings screen. Still user can manually add any additional drawings against specific work order by selecting the “ Source Type” as “ Others”. These modifications will be allowed only if “ Drawing changes in WO ?” is set as “ Allowed” for the selected product structure in Manage Product Structure screen under Product Structure business component.. Whenever user copies the new set of manufacturing data then user has to select the Get Latest Version button by entering the As on Date. Get latest revision details will fetch the latest Product Structure, 20 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution process plan and Drawings information effective for the As on date of the manufacturing part. Manufacturing Data screen also lists the certificate information for the Manufacturing Part in the Work order. If only one certificate type is required then display the certificate type in the Manufacturing data screen. If multiple certificates are required then display the string ’ Multiple’. User can view multiple certificate information by clicking on certificate details link. Certificate Information A new screen Certificate Information has been added under Shop Work Order business component. Certificate Information screen captures the Certificate Information that needs to be issued after manufacturing of parts. Certificates that are added against Part # in the Part Manufacturing information will be copied automatically in the Certificate information screen. User can also add new certificate information in this screen. System will mandate the user to issue all the mandatory certificates before closure of work order. Exhibit 15: Illustrates the Certificate information for the Work order. Review or Manage certificate Requirements A new screen Review or Manage Certificate requirements has been added to review or manage the certificate requirements for the Work Order and also the list all the Certificates that needs to be printed for the Work Order #. System will list all the certificates that are required to be issued against each Part or Part – Serial / Lot combination. List the certificate requirements for the work order based on the option setting “ Issue Distinct CoM?” in Define Process Entities activity of the Common Master business component. If it is set as ‘ Yes’, then display the distinct certificate requirements against each certificate type and also against Part – Serial 21 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution #/ Lot #/ None ( Qty). If it is set as No, then display the list with only one certificate requirement in the Review or Manage Certificate Requirements. Issue COM screen can be launched by selecting Issue COM from the Record Shop Execution Details screen, only when the Issue distinct COM is set as ‘ Yes’. Otherwise existing Issue COM will be launched. Tile section has been provided to give summary to user about certificate requirements of different type of certificates associated with selected work order document. On click of search, the system should fetch Tiles information and display the count of certificates that are created or yet to be created in the respective tile for the given Search Criteria: 1. All Certificates 2. Certificate of Maintenance 3. Certificate of Conformity 4. Certificate of Calibration Selection of each tile will display the respective documents that are already created and yet to be created. The system retrieves the Certificate that is already created, along with the existing certificate #, and the new certificates which needs to be created before closure of the work order. Existing certificates will be eligible for the Reprint and new certificates will be eligible for new certificate creation. User can issue “ Print Id tag”, “ Certificate of Maintenance”, “ Certificate of conformity” and “ Certificate of Calibration” from this screen. If a work order has only one certificate and “ Distinct Issue CoM” option is set as ‘ 0’, then on click of “ Issue certificate of Maintenance” from Certificate Information screen, “ Issue certificates” screen will be launched. Exhibit 16: Illustrates the Manage / Review Certificates screen 22 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 16: Illustrates the Manage/ Review Certificates Work Monitoring and Controlling: Review / Plan Material Requirements A new activity Review / Plan Material Requirements has been added under Work Monitoring and Control business component to aid production planner to plan his Task – part requirements for the manufacturing job. It also aids planner to plan his materials based on the Planned Start date of the Task. This screen aims to plan his requirements effectively to complete the manufacturing job within stipulated timelines. System also aids the planner by providing the Recommended Action for the material requirements and also displays the Proposed Order Date for the planner based on the lead times. It will help him to avoid stock out and overstocking situations of the inventory. Screen will list entire Task part Requirements and also helps him to generate the Source Documents for the material requirements. Source action for the Task – part requirements will be copied from the Product structure information of the Part #. It also displays the Constraint information along with the Planning status for each material requirement. Exhibit 17: Illustrates the Review/ Plan Material screen Search Criteria section will help the user to retrieve the Work Orders for which planner has to plan the Material requirements. Multiple Work orders can also be planned at a time. Tree will display the distinction between multiple work orders. If the related work order that is created because of the part requirements of the parent work order, then the related work order will be listed as a hierarchy list in the tree. 23 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution By enabling the checkbox ‘ Include child / related WO’, will display all the parent and related work orders ( i. e. New make work order created due to part requirements will be displayed in the tree by linking the Task to the new related work order.) in the tree, that was created as part of material requirements. Summary of material requirements will be displayed in the tile sections. Each tile logic is mentioned below. A. All - All parts required to complete work order B. Parts Not Available - Parts that are not available in the stock will be displayed in this Tile. C. Need Date Crossed - If the Source Document Need Date is later than the Task Start Date of the Work Order. D. Earlier - Need Date - if the parts are available before the planned Start Date of the Task in the Work Order. E. Part Not Planned: If the material requirements are not planned for the Tasks #. F. Critical Parts: If the Source Document need date is not matched with the Planned Start Date of the Task # in the Work order and also the lead time to need date difference is low*. Task Part requirements will be derived from the Product structure of the manufacturing Part # defined in the Manage Product Structure screen. If the constituent parts are not mapped with any task, then system will automatically map the part with first task available in the Process Plan. User can plan the part requirements by selecting source action defaulted from the product structure. If the Source action ( i. e. Purchase Request, Work order), is selected, then the respective source document will be generated. Part requirements multiline provides the user the planning status of all parts associated with a work order. If for few parts planning is not done, “ Generate Source Documents” push button has been provided to generate Material Request # for that part and also based on “ Recommended Action” in multiline respective Source Document is generated. If part is available in warehouse with required unallocated quantity, Issued document # is generated in Source document. If Recommend Action for a part is ‘ Procurement’, Purchase Request # will be generated as source document. And Recommended Action for part is ‘ Make’, Make Work Order # is generated. In case, if the parts are getting delayed for the source document, then respective source document will be short closed and the same part is eligible for re- planning. Short Close MR button has been provided to short close the MR generated for a part. It will also close the Source Documents related with this MR. Similarly, Cancel Work Order button is added to cancel the existing Work Order generated for a part 24 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution requirement. In the same way Short close Purchase request button has given to short close the existing Purchase request for a part. Accounting Pre- requisites for Part Manufacturing: A new Automatic Post Account Type, “ PRODUCTION WIP” has been introduced to account for the WIP ( Work In Progress) cost incurred while manufacturing Part( s) through Shop Work Orders of Shop Job Type “ Make”. ( Note: This new account code will be applicable for both Normal Make Work Orders and Manufacturing Make Work Orders with expense type “ Revenue”). The Material, Labor, Other Resources & External Service costs incurred in Manufacturing will be accounted to this automatic posting account type during Issue of spare Parts, Return of spare Parts, Interim Return of the core etc., and the same will be knocked off during final return of the manufactured parts back to Inventory. However for Make work orders with expense Type “ Capital”, cost will be accounted in the existing frame to the CWIP ( Capital Work in progress) account. A new pre- defined usage “ PRODVAR” ( Production Variance) has been introduced to account for the variance in case Standard Cost based valuation is opted for the Manufactured Part. The difference between the Actual Cost for manufacturing and the Standard Cost will be accounted in the Production Variance account.

But sometimes, the Mechanic wants to provide the date or the Organization wants to mandate the Mechanic to enter the date. So the Need Date is introduced where user can not only enter a custom Need Date during part requests, but can also be mandated to enter the same if left blank. Change Details In the Record Shop Execution Details screen, a new column ‘ Need Date’ has been added in ‘ Part Details’ multiline of Material Request tab. 28 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: Need Date column in Record Shop Execution Details screen The user can leave it blank during a part request and let the system default the Need Date ( as per below logic) or enter the Need Date manually. Only today’s date or a future date is allowed to be entered as Need Date. If Need Date is not specified by user, system will derive and default Need Date based on the following logic: • Need Date will be defaulted with the Task’s ‘ Planned Start Date’ if it is a future date. • Need Date will be defaulted with the Current Date if the Task’s ‘ Planned Start Date’ is a past date or current date. A set option has been provided to configure whether the Need Date should be enforced to be manually entered or to let the system default the date automatically if not provided. Under Common Master business component, a new process parameter “ Enforce Need Date during requisition of Parts from RSED screen?” has been added under the entity type “ Shop Work Order” and entity “- All Work Order-” with permitted values as “ 0” ( for No) and “ 1” ( for Yes): • If set as ‘ Yes’, system will enforce manual entry of Need Date while requesting for parts from RSED screen. • If set as ‘ No’, system will not enforce manual entry of Need Date and it will be updated automatically based on Plan Start Date of the Task or current date. 29 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Ability to track Certificate of Maintenance based on Certificate Type Reference: AHBG- 13353 Background In typical MRO scenarios where Shop Maintenance activities are in compliance with regulations from multiple regulatory bodies, Certificate of Maintenance are issued for each regulatory authorities. These CoM’s generated should have different Form Tracking # ( i. e. Certificate #) so that it can be tracked separately for reporting purposes. Change Details The new ‘ COM Numbering Type’ column added in Create/ Edit/ View Certificate Type screens in Logistic Common Master business component. While generating Certificate of Maintenance by selecting appropriate Certificate Type ( say for example EASA), system will generate Certificate # based on COM Numbering Type defined for Certificate Type. Refer below snapshot for illustration: 30 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Note: If multiple Certificate Types are selected during generation of Certificates, system will consider default Numbering Type defined for Transaction ‘ Certificate of Maintenance’ in Document Numbering Class business component.

Any new posts created using the ‘ Add Post’ button will be tagged under the mentioned Reference Doc. #. Also for an MCR, there can be 2 downstream documents such as Process Change Request and Eng. Doc. When such a valid document is available, the Ref. Doc. combo is loaded with the details of these documents. This is to facilitate the user to search for the messages related to these upstream & downstream documents Exhibit 5: Ref. Doc. combo with details of upstream and downstream documents When the user selects any Ref. Doc #, say for example ‘ Engineering Order’, then the system loads the combo with the Eng. Doc # ( EO- 000008- 2011, in our case) which was created using the MCR # ( AHBE- 9915- 8, in our case) on which the user is working. With this, the user can search for the posts created against the Engineering Document. Note: In scenarios where an MCR has only PCR but an Eng. Doc is not yet created, then the ‘ Ref. Doc. #’ will be loaded with ‘ Maintenance Change Request’ and ‘ Process Change Request’ only. The ‘ Ref. Doc. #’ combo will not be loaded with ‘ Engineering Order’ Exhibit 6: Selection of a Ref. Doc.

Comments Reference: AHBG- 7333 Background Aircraft Maintenance Execution in Ramco is recently enhanced to have additional authentication of the user credentials during Task sign- offs. With this feature, Mechanics and Inspectors were enforced to enter their Login Password or PIN while performing Task sign- off. As sign- off of a task is a critical step which is subject to regulatory procedures, addition / modification of Execution Comments of Task after sign- off is highly controlled. Business need is to have a provision to have additional authentication on the addition of new Execution Comments ( or modification of existing Execution Comments) post sign- off. Change Details A new set option “ Revert Sign- off while recording new Execution Comments for a Signed- Off Task?” is added in the Define Process Entities activity under the Entity Type “ Package Type”. This option will be available for all the entities defined under this entity type. • If this option is set as “ Yes”, system will revert the Sign- off status to pending on addition of new Execution Comments for a task which is already signed- off ( i. e. Sign- off Status is ‘ Signed- off’). • If this option is set as “ No”, system will retain the Sign- off status on addition of Execution Comments for a task which is already Signed- off. This is the existing functionality. As sign- off status gets reset, it is required for the mechanic/ inspector to perform sign- off again, during when the user will be re- authenticated ( as per the existing dual authentication capability as displayed below). 74 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: Dual Authentication popup Another option “ Allow Exe. Comments modification after Task Sign- Off?” is added in the Define Process Entities activity under the Entity Type “ Package Type”. • If this option is set as “ Yes”, system will allow modification of existing Execution Comments even for a task which is already signed- off ( i. e. Sign- off Status is ‘ Signed- off’). This is the existing functionality. • If this option is set as “ No”, system will restrict modification of existing Execution Comments for a task which is already signed- off ( i. e. Sign- off Status is ‘ Signed- off’). User has to manually remove existing sign off information and then modify the execution comments and perform sign- off again, during which the user will be authenticated. Note: Modification of Corrective Action is not allowed if the Discrepancy is already Signed- Off ( i. e. Sign- off Status is Signed- Off). This is an existing behaviour and is not controlled by any set option. Note: This feature involves commercials and is not available for all customers. Please contact your Ramco Account Manager. Sign Off status is reset automatically when new comments are added User Authentication popup is shown when user tries to sign off again after it was reset 75 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution WHAT’S NEW IN IN AIRCRAFT / SHOP WORK MANAGEMENT? Ability to Display Customer Name in Work Monitoring and Control screen Reference: AHBG- 7978 Background Commercial personnel often visit Manage Work Assignment and Reporting screen to review the work status of each project. But customer details like Customer Name and Customer Order # of the respective aircraft or components in work centers which are vital information for the project analysis, are not displayed in Manage Work Assignment and Reporting screen. To meet this requirement, Customer Order # and Customer Name fields are added in the Review Work multiline. Change Details In Manage Work Assignment and Reporting screen, new columns ‘ Customer Name’ and ‘ Customer Order #’ have been added in Review Work multiline. Also, to aid the search of a Package or Shop Work Order for a customer, new values ‘ Customer order #’, ‘ Customer Name’ and ‘ Customer #’ have been added in ‘ Search On’ drop- down. 76 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution Exhibit 1: ‘ Customer Order #’, ‘ Customer Name’ and ‘ Customer #’ values in ‘ Search On’ drop- down User can search a Package or Shop Work Order created for a Customer, by invoking Search after providing ‘ Customer Name’, ‘ Customer #’ or ‘ Customer Order #’ in ‘ Search On’ field. Exhibit 2: ‘ Customer Order #’ and ‘ Customer Name’ columns in Review Work multiline Customer Order # and Customer Name fields are 77 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution The user can view the Customer Order # and Customer Name if a Package or Shop Work Order has reference to the Customer Order #. If the user invokes the search to view the work status of a Package or Shop Work Order, Customer Name and Customer Order # will be defaulted against Package # and Shop Work Order #. 78 | Enhancement Notification Ramco Aviation Solution What’s new in Work Reporting Hub? Work Reporting Hub for Aircraft Maintenance Execution Reference: AHBG- 11247 Background Mechanics, Inspectors, Aircraft Maintenance Engineers and Technical Records Personnel use the Record Aircraft Maintenance Execution Details screen to report work performed on an Aircraft.
