The E/C entered in this field supersedes the original E/C selected into. This feature is used to phase in one E/C and phase out and terminate the current E/C selected. The E/C that is being superseded will be identified as such (flagged in red text) on the E/C General Tab.

E/C Superseded Date

The date that the superseding E/C takes effect.

Internal Capability checkbox

This checkbox indicates hat the work can be carried out internally as opposed to having a third party maintenance organization carry it out. This field is informational only.

Do Not Include Child Man Hrs checkbox

When selected, the Man Hours calculation for Planning will not include the Man Hours for any Child E/Cs (Called On E/Cs). The checkbox also applies to the Work Order Man Hours in Planning. For additional information, refer to Fleet Due List Tab, via Planning.

MOD NO

Modification Numbers for E/Cs. This field is informational only.

Effectivity NO

This does not relate to A/C or E/C Effectivity. This field is informational only.

Ground Time Required

The amount of time needed for an aircraft to be on the ground in order to comply with the E/C. The time format is user defined by hours (0.00). This information appears on the A/C Planning Query results window as GTR (Ground Time Required). This field is mandatory when the Auto Reschedule checkbox is selected via the Engineering Control, Schedule Tab. For further information refer to the E/C Auto Reschedule Functionality topic.

Inspection Program Reference

This field allows users to set a reference for all MPD tasks during the import process.

Expenditure

The G/L accounts linked to the expenditure code will be impacted when the E/C, and its associated Task Cards, are added to a Work Order. All materials issued, labor actuals, and expenses performed against this E/C impacts the expenditure codes financially. If the E/C does not have a defined expenditure code the system will use the W/O expenditure code to capture and record all financial impacts. Financial transactions are recorded and available for view via the Journal Entry Query. Expenditure Codes may be created via G/L Interface/Update/Journal Entries Expenditure in the Creating a New Expenditure Code. For more information, please refer to the Creating a New Expenditure Code section of the G/L Interface manual.

Note: This code is mandatory in the Work Order. The user will not be able to create a Work Order without defining the Expenditure Code.

E/C Type

The Engineering Control Type.

E/C Check Type

This field allows the user to enter a system transaction code that sorts the Aircraft Check Status print contents based on the the configuration of the E/C Check Type transaction code. The Group/Sort Order field of the transaction code will sort E/Cs from shortest to longest check type based on their numeric value. For more information, refer to E/C Check Type via the Engineering Transaction Codes Training Manual.

Note: This functionality is part of a customized print and is therefore not applicable for most users.

FR (Fatigue Rate)

The Fatigue Rate being recorded by this E/C. This field is used to calculate fatigue schedules along with the Average Flight Time (AFT) and Basic Flight Time (AFB) parameters listed for specific Aircraft Type/Series. This functionality is used for Airbus aircraft only and should be provided by the manufacturer. For more information refer to Engineering Fatigue via the Engineering Training Manual.

FC (Fatigue Cycles)

The Fatigue Cycles being recorded by this E/C. This field is used to calculate Fatigue schedules along with the Average Flight Time (AFT) and Basic Flight Time (AFB) parameters listed for specific Aircraft Type/Series. This functionality is used for Airbus aircraft only and should be provided by the manufacturer. For more information refer to Engineering Fatigue via the Engineering Training Manual.

ETOPS checkbox

Indicates that this E/C is ETOPS rated with an extended range allotted to the aircraft.

EC Legacy

The legacy system's E/C name. This field functions as a mapping between a previous carrier's E/C name and the target carrier's E/C name. This field is not for manual input; it is populated automatically by an interface and is informational only.

This field is part of a customized interface and is not available for all customers.

Capability Area

The Capability Area identifies where a maintenance task can be accomplished in association with the customer's internal capabilities (e.g., a particular E/C can only be accomplished during a heavy maintenance visit at a heavy maintenance capable Site). The Capability Area can be assigned for E/Cs, P/N Controls, and Defect Reports. However, a maintenance task with any Capability Area can be scheduled on Work Orders at Sites that have their Capability Area set to 'ALL'. For more information, refer to the Capability Area section of the Planning Transaction Code Manual.

Maintenance Program

Maintenance Program enables the user to identify which Maintenance Program a particular E/C belongs to.
