Generate an Operational Event

Explanation

This activity is used to assign a serial part to operational events within an operational plan. When an operational plan is set to the Completed status, a number of operational events that have not been assigned to serials will be generated automatically. The number of operational events that are generated is dependent on whether the plan calls for daily operational events and the number of serials for each operational plan item.

Generating operational events are useful when you have daily operational plans (one operational event for each day within the time frame of the operational plan). For operational events that are non-daily operations, it is preferable to assign serials (vehicles) directly on the Assign Vehicles and Crew tab from Operational Planning page. For more information on assigning vehicles and crew, refer to the activity Assign Serials and/or Crew.

• To perform this activity, query for your operational plan from the Operational Planning page. Select a row from the table in Assign Vehicle and Crew tab and select Generate Events option to generate an event from Generate Events assistant.
• In Part No field the values available on the drop-down depends on the values entered in the Product No and Model No fields.
•  In Serial No field the values available on the drop-down depends on the values entered in the Product No, Model No, and Part No fields. The serial must not be connected to other operations or interval maintenance within the applicable time frame.
• ln Item No field the values available on the drop-down depends on the items defined in Define Vehicle Models tab.
• ln Model No field the values available on the drop-down depends on the product selected in the Product No field.

Note: You can change to a vehicle with a different product and model number than the one required for the operational plan item even if the product and model number of the operational plan item is suggested.
