Copy information from another Part Revision
Explanation
This activity is used to copy certain information from one part revision to
another. Maintenance codes, condition limits as well as condition limit
definitions, sign off requirements defined for the
condition limits and maintenance codes, task cards (task cards in the
Preliminary and Active status with belonging
resources, material, zones, access panels etc.), subtasks (also with belonging detail
data such as resources, material, zones, access panels etc.), and connected documents can be copied using the
Copy from another Revision
assistant. You can also choose to copy the
function breakdown associated with the task card or
subtask. The part
revision to which information is to be copied can be of a different part number.
Ideally this activity can be performed when the part revisions are similar
and maintenance requirements are for the most part the same. This activity is also useful when you create a new part revision and make
small
changes to the maintenance plans. Only information that meet the requirements (template structure, function
structure) will be copied.
Prerequisites
- Serial part revisions must exist.
- The information to be copied (maintenance
codes, task cards, condition limits, sign off
requirements for the maintenance codes and condition limits, subtasks etc.) must be defined on the part
revision you choose to copy from.
- If the function structure of a task card or
subtask is to
be copied, a product and model must be assigned to the vehicle part.
System Effects
Depending on your selection, maintenance codes, task cards, subtasks,
condition limits, sign off requirements (for the maintenance codes and condition limits
being copied), and connected documents are copied to the serial part revision.
