_____________________________________________________________________________________

Conflict Task Card

If a Task Card is specified here, it indicates that the current Task Card should not be performed should it appear in a Work Order with the specified Task Card.

MPD

The Maintenance Planning Document reference for this Task Card.

Area

The Area of the aircraft which this Task Card is related to, as defined in the Trans Code.

Work Order Phase

The phase of the Work Order on which the Task Card work is carried out on.

Default Sort

The default sort priority of this Task Card when it is printed on a Work Order.

Editor

The Editor that will be used to edit Task Card information on an individual basis. If the Task Card is created manually the Editor will default to TASKCARD; if the Task Card is imported via TraxDocs the Editor will default to TRAXDOC – the default Editor can be changed in either cases before the record is saved.

TASKCARD – The TASKCARD Editor uses a mix of the Rich Text Format (RTF) stylesheet and TraxDoc to compose Task Card Items. This means that all Items for that Task Card, whether entered through RTF or brought in through TraxDoc loads, will be linked. RTF Items can also reference TraxDoc Items, if necessary.

Note: When printing the Task Card, the customer's custom datawindows can be set to look the same as their stylesheet Task Cards.

TRAXDOC - The TRAXDOC Editor uses uploaded Style Sheets in TRAXDOC as a template for the Task Card print; Task Cards for each TRAXDOC can have a different layout based on the criteria of the TRAXDOC Style Sheet (i.e. fleet type, customer). The TRAXDOC Editor is not a RTF Editor. When TRAXDOC Editor is selected, a TraxDoc No field appears to enter the TraxDoc reference number.
