From the A/C Master, General tab, users can enter general information for a new or existing aircraft record such as the aircraft's name, type/series, service status, etc.

The following information/options are available in this window:
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Active drop down

Check this box to indicate that this A/C is currently active (in use) on the system. When deselected, the Aircraft is in 'Inactive' status. The 'Active' text is displayed in red and the aircraft cannot be linked to new transactions or records (e.g., Work Orders, Defect Reports, etc.). A hard warning will prevent users from creating records for Inactive Aircraft.

Note: Additional status options can be added to or removed from the Active drop down menu via the System Tran Code Explorer under Aircraft Status. However, the Active, Inactive, and Leased status cannot be removed and will always be present in the A/C Master.

Note: Leased status indicates that the A/C is currently leased. For more information, refer to the Leased Aircraft button.

The QR code allows users to pull up records using QR code scanner functionality via the applicable eMobility application.

Deleting A/Cs With Dependencies:
