Recalculate Fault Deferral

Explanation

This activity is used to recalculate the date a fault is performed after the deferral is approved.

Prerequisites

• A fault with enabled fault deferral information must exist for a serial.
• The user must have access to the product model.
• The fault deferral must be approved.
• Fault deferral events that are in a planning state (i.e., in the Planned in Scope, Incomplete or Under Preparation status) must be connected to a maintenance order that is not yet released.

System Effects

• A new maintenance event date is calculated and the fault deferred.
• The recalculation for fault deferral events will handle events that are included on maintenance orders not yet released.
