Note: Ensure that at least one work unit in the multiline is of expense type “Capital”, if the expense type is displayed as "Capital" in the header.

Note: You can repeat a task in the multiline, only when a work order is already generated for the task, or when the visit package is in “Preclosed”, “Completed”, “Cancelled” or “Closed” status.

Note: The CAPEX Proposal number specified against the work unit must have an asset class that is same as the asset class to which the Asset Tag and Asset No. are mapped for the aircraft. The system performs this check only when the expense type is “Capital” and the “Enforce Object to Asset Mapping For” field is set as “Aircraft” in the “Set Option” activity of the “Account Group” business component.

Note: You cannot delete a mandatory work unit, unless there are multiple occurrences of the same work unit number. However, all the duplicate work units cannot be deleted; at least one work unit (say, the main work unit) should be retained in the visit package.

The duplicate work unit, which is deleted, is precluded for the main work unit. If the duplicate work unit itself has precluded work units, the precluded work units are also associated to the main work unit.

You can delete the mandatory work unit, if the component for which the on-wing task must be executed, is not present in the aircraft.

Only  unplanned work units that are available in the visit package , can be deleted.

On deletion of a non-mandatory work unit, if the work unit refers to a Maintenance Report, the system defers the Maintenance Report and sets the status of the Maintenance Report as “Deferred”.

The system performs the following, on deleting the work units:

The system updates the status of the work unit as “Pending” in the “Component Maintenance Planning” business component.

If the visit package in “Confirmed” status is modified and the planned start date is modified, then the material allotted for the visit package is canceled. If the work center is modified and the warehouse to which the work center coordinates gets changed, the material allotted is canceled.

The system sets the status of the visit package as follows:

a) The part is identified as PBH part for the supplier who is mapped to the aircraft specified in the “Aircraft Reg #” field.

b) The part and its higher assembly part are identified as PBH object list for a supplier.

c) The component that is requested for a “Component Removal” job or “Onwing” job, along with its higher assemblies, is identified as PBH for the supplier.

For all the other part types, the system updates the stock status as “Accepted”.

  1. sets the “Approval Status” of the newly added work units as “Pending Cust. Auth.", if the “Visit Package Approval” is set to “No” in the “Set Options” activity of the current business component.

  2. sets the "Approval Status" of  the work unit as "Pending Approval”, if the “Visit Package Approval” is set to “Yes”.

  1. sets the "Approval Status" of the newly added work unit as "Pending Approval, if the “Visit Package Approval” is set as "Yes".

  2. sets the "Approval Status" of all the work units as "Not Required", if the “Visit Package Approval” is set as "No".
