Define Material for Task Card and Subtask

Explanation

This activity is used to register material requirements for a task card or subtask. Material can be components for replacement and/or dispensable parts such as nuts and bolts. There can be material that will not be used every time a task card or subtask is performed. For such material, you can specify how likely it is that the part will be used by entering a probability percentage on the relevant material line.

The parts on the material list are not connected to a site at this point since you may not know which workshop will perform the work. The material list is connected to a site when the corresponding task card or subtask is added to a maintenance order.

Prerequisites

• A task card or subtask must be defined.
• The part revisions that are to be included in the material list must be defined as engineering part revisions. Vehicle parts are not allowed.
• If the material is to be supplied by a particular manufacturer and/or be a specific part number from the manufacturer, this manufacturer and the corresponding manufacturer's part number must be entered for each part in the material list.

System Effects

• Material requirements are defined for a task card or subtask.
• When the maintenance event to which the task card or subtask is connected is transferred, a work task is created per task card and subtask and the material demand is copied to the task.

Procedure

Use the following procedure to create a material line using the part revision for which the task card is valid:

1. Open the Task Card window.
2. Search for the desired task card revision.
3. Click the Material List tab and create a new record (F5).
4. In the Sub Part Number field, enter the part number of the part that is to be included in the material list. Use the List of Values to select a value.
5. When the sub part number is selected, a value in the Sub Part Revision field appears automatically. If this is not the required sub part revision, use the List of Values to select another value.
6. If the part is to be supplied by a manufacturer, enter the manufacturer's number in the Manufacturer Number field. Use the List of Values to select a value.
7. If the part is to be supplied with a specific manufacturer's part number, enter the value in the Manufacturer's Part No field. Use the List of Values to select a value.
8. In the Planned Quantity field, enter the quantity of material (i.e., the selected part) that is to be used during the execution of the task card.
9. If the part will not be used every time the task card is executed, enter the probability (as a percentage) of the part being needed in the Probability field.
10. Save the record (F12).

Use the following procedure to create a material line using the manufacturer's part number:

1. Open the Task Card window and query for your part revision.
2. Click the Material List tab and create a new record (F5).
3. In the Manufacturer's Part No field, enter the manufacturer's part number that is to be included in the material list. Use the List of Values to select a value.
4. The corresponding sub part revision information appears automatically in the Sub Part Number and Sub Part Revision fields. If needed, use the List of Values to select another sub part revision in the Sub Part Revision field.
5. In the Planned Quantity field, enter the quantity of material (i.e., the selected part) that is to be used during execution of the task card.
6. If the part will not be used every time the task card is executed, enter the probability (as a percentage) of the part being needed in the Probability field.
7. Save the record (F12).

Note: You can also define materials for an existing task card in the following windows:

• Task Cards per Maintenance Code/Material Usage
• Modification Details/Execution Type Info/Material Usage
• Condition Monitoring Program/Condition Category Info/Material Usage
• Task Cards per Fault Function/Material Usage
• Serial Part Revision/Life Limit/Material Usage
• Post Maintenance Check Definition/Part Revision Info/Material Usage

Use the following procedure to define the material to be used on a subtask:

1. Open the Subtask window.
2. Populate (F2) or query (F3) for the desired subtask.
3. Click the Material List tab and create a new record (F5).
4. Specify the sub part number and sub part revision of the material. Use the List of Values in the relevant fields to select valid values. You can also directly select the manufacturer's part number for the material, thereby retrieving the sub part revision.
5. Enter the planned quantity of material.
6. Save the information (F12).
