Sign Off Maintenance Event

Explanation

This activity is used to perform inspector sign off for maintenance events that have sign off requirements. The following rules apply when signing off an event:

• If sign off requirements with both Inspector and Counter Inspector requirement types are defined on the event, two different persons are required to sign off the event.
• If a certificate has been defined for the inspector sign off requirements on the event, the person signing off the event must have the necessary qualifications to perform the sign off. Note: If a certificate is not used for the inspector sign off requirements when signing off, the identity of the person performing the sign off is retained but validations will not be performed.
• When signing off an event where more than one signature requirement has been defined for the same requirement type, only one signature can be specified and the person signing off must have all certificates required.

Prerequisites

To perform this activity, events with inspector sign off requirements must exist on the maintenance order. The events must be in the Work Done status.

System Effects

• The event is signed off.
• The ID of the person who performed the sign off and the date of signing off is entered automatically on the sign off requirement.
• If all sign off requirements have been performed on the event, the Sign Off Performed check box is selected on the event record.
• Inspector sign off information on the event will be retained in history.
• Depending on the type of event being signed off, the due calculation for interval maintenance, modifications, post maintenance checks, life limited parts or fault deferrals will run automatically for the serial to calculate new due dates and values.
