Package Fault
Explanation
You need to package a fault in the following scenarios:
- A fault raised on the Raise Fault page, but the flight during which it was found was not
defined.
- A deferred fault that has not been assigned to a work package.
To package a fault, go to the Open Faults or Deferred
Faults tab on the Aircraft Turn Details page.
Prerequisites
- An open or deferred fault that has not been assigned to a work package.
- Maintenance location types and maintenance locations must be defined in Aviation Maintenance/Basic
Data.
System Effects
- If a work package for the aircraft turn exists, the fault is packaged to it.
- If there is no existing work package for the aircraft turn, a new work package for the turn is created.
- When a new work package is created, it is created in the Active status, with an
auto-generated number and named using the following format: Packaged Faults + [date of packaging]. It is
scheduled to a LINE location, or TRACK if no LINE locations are found at the aircraft’s current location or
arrival location. The scheduled start date and scheduled end date of the work package are set to the scheduled
arrival time of the arrival flight.
- A task corresponding to the fault is created, assigned to the work package for the turn and can be viewed as
a work task from the Aircraft Turn Details page.
- Tools, parts, and skill requirements, if specified on the fault, are copied to the resulting work task.
