Mark Fault as No Fault Found

Explanation

A technician can mark a fault as No Fault Found (NFF) from the Task Details or Fault Details page. Use this option when the technician inspects the aircraft and determines that no actual fault exists for the reported issue.

When the technician selects No Fault Found, the No Fault Found assistant opens. The assistant includes an optional NFF Note field where the technician can record additional information about the findings.

Prerequisites

• The task must be in Active or In Work status.
