Define Cancellation Cause
Explanation
This activity is used to define cancellation causes applicable for either
work order, work task, work assignment or work task step.
In Fleet and Asset Management, a cancellation cause will be required when you cancel a
maintenance order, maintenance event or task card/subtask that has been issued to a workshop.
In order to use cancellation causes for these instances, the Maint Order,
Maint Event and Work Task check boxes need to be selected based on
your requirements. Following dependencies must be considered:
- When a maintenance order is canceled, connected events and task
cards/subtasks will be canceled. The cancellation cause to be used must be
valid for all these types.
- When a maintenance event is canceled, connected task cards/subtasks will
be canceled. The cancellation cause to be used must be valid for both
maintenance events and task cards.
