Revising existing engineering document – An overview

Revisions to change request can lead to a revision of the existing engineering document; A unique number generated by the system identifies the Engineering Document revision. In this page, you can revise the engineering document selected in the “Select Engineering Document” page. You can modify the category to which the engineering document belongs, user status and the description of the engineering document. The system displays the ATA chapter for which the engineering document is revised and the reference document details of the engineering document.

The system denotes whether the engineering document is applicable for aircraft, component or engine. You can modify the priority, type of the engineering document, whether the engineering document should be is performed on one-time or recurring basis, background details and the reason thereof.

The execution details of the engineering document such as the work center, in which the engineering document has to be performed, estimated time and man-hours required for the execution of the engineering document can also be modified.

You can also indicate whether,

the engineering change has to be performed in the original place of the part,
follow-up action is required after executing the engineering document,
work order must be created directly from engineering document,
purchase request must be automatically generated for the parts that is required for executing the engineering document.

The change in weight, moment and the electrical load of the aircraft after executing the engineering document can be modified. The system assigns the “Fresh” status for the revised engineering document, and stores the name of the currently logged in user and the current server date.

On release of a revised engineering document, the original engineering document is moved into the “Revised” status, and will not be available for execution planning.

Note: Only an engineering document in the Released or Closed status can be revised.

Note: If approval requirements are specified in the “Set Authorization Rules” activity, for the combination of the change document type and the source document type of the engineering document, the system sets the “Authorization Status” of the engineering document as “Pending” in the "Edit Engineering Document" activity. Otherwise, the “Authorization Status” is set as “Authorization Not Required”.
