Change Maintenance Program and Maintenance Group for Structure
Explanation
This activity is used to change the maintenance program and/or the maintenance group for all serials in a
structure. Depending on your workflow, you can perform this activity by selecting the option Change
Maintenance Program, from one of the following pages.
- Define Maintenance Program
- Manage Serial Structure
- Serial Structures
- Serials
- Vehicles
Following is a description of the information that can be entered in each assistant step.
Step 1 - Maintenance Program Details
- Enter the new maintenance program revision and if you want to change the maintenance group, enter the new
maintenance group. Enable the Change maintenance program for all serials in structure option if you want
to update all serials in the structure with the new maintenance program. If you want to update all serials in the
structure with the new maintenance group, enable the Change maintenance group for all serials in the
structure option.
Step 2 - Serials lacking maintenance programs
- You can select one of the query options to filter the serials for which you wish to update maintenance
program information. The table will list serials based on the query selection. Select one of the spread options
to enter or extend the maintenance program information to the listed serials.
- If you choose to extend the maintenance program and maintenance group to all listed serials, ensure that the
new maintenance program and the new maintenance group is entered correctly.
- Click Spread, to spread the maintenance program and maintenance group to all the records in
the list. If you click Update Serials, the serials will be updated with the new maintenance
program and group and these records will be removed from the list. If no manual edits are required after
spreading the data and before updating the serials, click Spread and Update Serials.
Step 3 - Interval Maintenance for the Serials
- In here, you can enter or change the start values for the interval maintenance of a serial(s) in the
structure. This is useful for instance when the intervals for the maintenance code on the old maintenance plan
are different to the intervals on the new maintenance plan and it is necessary to adjust the interval maintenance
values accordingly. The upper table displays the interval maintenance for the primary operational parameters
while the lower table displays all secondary operational parameters corresponding to the primary operational
parameters.
- You can enter or change the total operational value for the part and serial number for which you want to
change interval maintenance values in the Value At Maintenance field. Note: The following
conditions apply:
- If the value in this field does not match the maintenance interval in the maintenance plan the system
displays a message.
- The value in this field cannot exceed the value after overhaul for the maintenance triggering operational
parameters unless the maintenance code has the calculation rule set to Special Case. In this case the
value cannot exceed the value total of the serial.
- When a value is entered in this field, values for the maintenance date and correction value, are
suggested automatically if the value in the lowest interval for the maintenance code exceeds either the value
total (when the calculation rule is set to Special Case) or the value after overhaul (Inspection,
Overhaul and Replacement).
- You can also enter the total operational value of the serial at the date of maintenance in the value total
field.
Prerequisites
- A maintenance program that is valid for the part number, revision and maintenance group of the serial must
have been defined. This maintenance program must be in the Active status.
- You need to have access to the serial and maintenance program you want to work with.
- The maintenance group must exist for all serialized part numbers in the structure before any changes are
made. For more information, refer to the activity Define Maintenance Group.
System Effects
- As a result of this activity, all serialized parts in the structure are connected to the selected maintenance
program and/or maintenance group.
- The due calculation for interval maintenance will run automatically for the serial to calculate due dates and
values.
