MANUALS > Settings > Settings Module > Settings, Update Menu > Aircraft > A/C Master Buttons > A/C Template Button, via Aircraft Master

The Template button automatically creates an A/C template by copying properties (P/N Effectivity, P/N Positions, A/C E/Cs, and Task Cards) to the currently selected Aircraft record. The P/N Effectivity, P/N Positions, A/C E/Cs, and Task Cards must be previously set up and made effective to the A/C Type/Series that is defined on the currently selected Aircraft record.

Note: The A/C Master Template can only be performed for a particular aircraft one time. Once the template is created, its different sections can be updated, as required, through various means within the system. The product of the A/C Template is the 'Perfect Aircraft' assembly. Upon attempting to create an A/C Template that has already been loaded, the following error appears:

Note: As part of the Multi Company functionality, when the A/C template load is run only E/Cs and Task Cards that share the same Company as the aircraft or have a Company All will be made effective.

Once completed, verification and auditing of this information should be mandatory to ensure correct compliance information.

Select the Template button to open the Aircraft Master Template pop-up window.
