MANUALS > Settings > Settings Module > Settings, Update Menu > P/N (Part Number) > P/N Master Buttons > Effectivity Button, via P/N Master

Select the Effectivity button to apply A/C Effectivity to the selected part from the P/N Master. Assigning aircraft effectivity to parts is needed, for example, in order to be allowed to install parts only on those aircraft they are effective to. A part's A/C Effectivity is a vital configuration that affects multiple types of transactions throughout the system.

When the button is selected, the P/N Effectivity appears as follows.

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

Fleet Select All / Deselect All buttons

Use these buttons to select all fleets (including every aircraft) or to deselect all fleets.

A/C Type/Series button

Select this checkbox to add effectivity to the entire fleet.

Individual A/C checkbox - Select this checkbox to only add effectivity to the selected Aircraft. This will change the Status to 'Partially'.

Expand / Collapse buttons

Use these buttons to view all of a fleet's aircraft or to hide all of a fleet's aircraft. Once expanded, individual aircraft can be selected or deselected for effectivity.

P/N Range button

Select this button to apply effectivity to a range of specified S/N Line items or to a range of IPCs. For additional information, refer to the P/N Range Button, via the P/N Master Buttons of the Settings Training Manual.

ALL

Indicates that all aircraft for the selected type/series are effective. If only one available Type/series is selected, but all of the aircraft within that type/series are selected, the effectivity is classified as ‘ALL.’

PARTIALLY

Indicates that some but not all aircraft for the selected type/series are effective. If multiple type/series are selected, but one of the selected type/series has aircraft within that are not selected, the effectivity is classified as ‘Partially.’

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Select the fleet type/series applicable.

To select only specific Tail Numbers within a fleet Type/Series, select the fleet's Expand button and then select the applicable Tail Numbers. If a part is not effective to an aircraft, it cannot be issued to a Work Order for that aircraft. However, if the Work Order is for a third party, there are no effectivity checks on the part issues.

The Notes and Effectivity Audit buttons are also available to add or view information relevant to the record.

About Applying P/N Effectivity:

P/N Effectivity should be applied at either one of the following levels:

• The P/N Effectivity Control tab can only be used with Effectivity at the P/N level (via Engineering/ Update/ E/C, P/N Effectivity Control tab).

• The P/N Interchangeable level (via Settings/ Update/ P/N Master/ Interchangeable button/ A/C Effectivity button)
