Specifications for Load and Publish Work Package

The following tables contain specifications for data to create or update a work package and its contents either by publishing a work package from Maintenix or loading a .csv file with work package data.

Columns must be ordered by the Column No. when creating a .csv file to load work packages and their contents. If the value for a column is not mandatory, the value for the column in the file can be empty with a semicolon used as a delimiter before and after.

For work packages published from Maintenix, the value for any ID field is the ALT_ID.

You can also only assign/un-assign tasks/faults for a work package which has a status of Active/Committed or In Work. You cannot do so from a work package which has a status of Canceled or Completed.
If parts, tools, actions, and skills are defined on faults, they are copied to the corresponding task as well.
When tasks and faults are removed from a work package, for tasks and faults with the work task status set to Active, the tasks and faults are removed from the work package and any parts, tools, actions, measurement, steps, and skills defined on these tasks and faults are deleted.
To remove a task or fault from a work package you must delete the row for the task from the work package loader file and upload the work package loader file. The corrective task that was previously created for the fault is removed as well.
The Task ID is displayed in the External ID field of Task Details page and the Fault ID is displayed in the External ID field of the Fault Details page as well External ID field of the Task Details page for the corrective task for the fault.
If a fault was raised in Mobile Maintenance for Aviation, no changes can be made to the fault using the work package integration.
For faults raised in Mobile Maintenance for Aviation with an integration with Maintenix, on deferral the fault is created and deferred in Maintenix. If such a fault is published via another work package to Mobile Maintenance for Aviation, only fault details such as Description, ATA, Fault Code, Logbook Reference, Fault Type, Fault Source, and Phase of Flight can be updated on the fault.
