This activity is used to change the current vehicle condition of a vehicle serial. When you have reported a critical fault or performed a condition measurement that has led to a pending maintenance event, you may want to change the current vehicle condition. Depending on how the system is set up, the vehicle condition can be changed automatically as part of different system events. The vehicle condition can also be set manually.
When the vehicle condition for a vehicle is changed a history record will be created. History records are also created after maintenance events are assigned and completed. When the operational condition of a vehicle is set to Operational or Non Operational, the vehicle will automatically be updated with the vehicle condition according to the values entered in the Vehicle Condition codes page in Serial Basic Data. The vehicle condition is usually changed after events are assigned and completed. If the vehicle condition is updated manually, the operational condition for the vehicle can be changed along with it. If the operational condition is changed from Non Operational to Operational, the system validates the serial (e.g., checks template structures and ensures there is a minimum configuration, checks for missing serial numbers, checks for overdue Mandatory modifications) before setting the serial to the Operational status.
To perform this activity for the necessary vehicle serial, select Change Vehicle Condition option from Vehicle tab in Manage Serial Structure page or from Vehicles page.
