Kit inspection
Kits can be ordered or assembled on-site. A kit can contain some part numbers that require inspection when the inventory is received and other part numbers that do not require inspection on receipt. When a kit is ordered and received, if any inventory in the kit requires inspection, then the kit itself has the inventory condition of INSPREQ (inspection required).
The kit can be inspected as serviceable only after all inventory items in the kit are in serviceable RFI (ready for issue) condition.
Kits cannot be inspected as unserviceable because kits are not repairable. An ordered kit that's not serviceable, is typically returned to the vendor.
- If you click the Mark as Inspection Required button for the kit, the kit's condition changes to inspection required and the condition of kit inventory items whose part numbers have the Force Inspection on Receipt check box selected (on their Part Details page) are changed to inspection required. Inventory items whose part numbers don't have the Force Inspection on Receipt check box selected (on their Part Details page) remain in RFI condition.
- If you click the Mark as Inspection Required button for an inventory item in a kit, its condition changes to inspection required. You can do this without removing the item from the kit, but you must remove the item from the kit if it is unserviceable. If all items included in the kit are RFI, but some items are missing from the kit, you can mark the kit as serviceable. In this scenario, the kit's inventory condition becomes RFI, but the kit's status remains incomplete.
If you mark a kit with no missing items as serviceable, Maintenix updates the inventory condition for the kit to RFI and updates the kit status to COMPLETE. Complete kits in RFI condition can be automatically reserved.
