Cancel Task Cards on Maintenance Event

Explanation

This activity is used to cancel a task card connected to an event on the maintenance order.

If a task card is to be canceled, and the event it belongs to is in the Under Preparation status or an earlier status, all connected subtasks will be canceled automatically. If the event is in the Released status or a later status, the connected subtasks will not be canceled when canceling the task card. In this case, the subtasks must be canceled one by one.

Prerequisites

• Cancellation causes must exist.
• You must have access to the cancellation cause that is to be used when canceling a task card.
• Task cards must exist on an event connected to a maintenance order that is in one of the following statuses: Under Preparation, Released or Started.
• If a work task has been created for the task card, the work task cannot have any time reported or material reserved/issued.

System Effects

• The task card is set to the Canceled status, but will still remain on the maintenance order till it becomes historical.
• The given cancellation cause is retained on the task card.
• Resource demands on the task card and subtask and resource activities generated for the demands will be removed.
• Material demands on the task card and subtask will be removed.
• Sign off requirements on the task card and subtask will be removed.
• If task cards are canceled for a fault event on a maintenance order, the task cards will be removed automatically from the task card list of the fault (in the Serial Operational Info/Fault/Task Cards tab).
• If a work task has been created for the task card, the work task is set to the Canceled status, and the cancellation cause is entered on the task line.
