MANUALS > Receiving > Receiving Module > Receiving, Update Menu > Receiving Inspection > Receiving Inspection Detail > Receiving Inspection Detail Buttons > Control - E/C Button, via Receiving Inspection Detail

When the Control - E/C button is selected, the Control - P/N E/C window displays P/N Controls and P/N E/Cs linked to a part. Depending on if the part being received is from a Repair Order or if it is a new part entering the system, the following processes are in effect:

• Repair Orders: During the Receiving Inspection (R/I) of a part that was received on a Repair Order, the user must ensure the Select checkbox is selected for each control that was actioned while the part was on repair and enter the Reset Date found on the part certification. The Actuals cannot be edited for parts received on an R/O. Compliance for controls against an R/Os will be triggered by selecting the Select checkbox, not the Compliance checkbox (see table below).

  

  Note: P/N E/Cs that are Position Controlled will be displayed in this window even if their Status is 'N/A' (which indicates that the Serial Number is not presently installed in the specified A/C Position). Including position-controlled P/N E/Cs that are 'N/A' ensures that the necessary controls are reviewed throughout the repair process. To ensure that all position-controlled P/N E/Cs for the part are displayed in this window, Receiving switch PNECPOSCONT must be set to Yes. For more information on position-controlled parts, refer to the Positioning Control Button, via Engineering Control P/N, General Tab.

• New Parts (P/O, L/O, EX): During the Receiving Inspection (R/I) of a part that was received on a Purchase Order, Loan Order, or Exchange Order, the user can enter the Reset Date (effective date) and update the Actuals (Hours/Cycles/Days), as required. Compliance for P/N E/Cs against P/Os, L/Os, and E/Xs will be triggered by selecting the Compliance checkbox, not solely the Select checkbox (see table below). These steps are optional for these types of orders; refer to below note.

  

Keep in mind, the Control - E/C button can be selected only while the 'Pending' or 'Accepted' Status radio buttons are selected in the R/I Detail window. The Pending radio button has been added to the Receiving Inspection window. This status option allows users to review/edit the P/N Controls and P/N E/Cs of the part without updating the Control tables. The tables will not be formally updated until the R/I status is changed to Accepted and saved. When the 'Accepted' Status radio button is selected and the Control - E/C button is selected, a red message appear stating that any changes made while the Status is 'Accepted' will update the Control tables. For more information refer to R/I Pending Status and Updating Controls.

Note: Under the following Receiving Inspection circumstances, the Reset Dates will be set by default and access to this window will be optional:

- If the part is not linked to an order and is in a Quarantine Location with Condition 'U/S' (unserviceable). In the R/I window the Location and Condition can be updated to serviceable locations/statuses and the R/I can be Accepted without having to select the Control-E/C button.

- If the part entered the system through a P/O, E/X, or L/O, the system will populate the reset dates and values automatically. The R/I can be Accepted without having to select the Control-E/C button.

Note: In eMRO version 5 and later releases the Control button, P/N E/C button, and Repair Order Control tab have been replaced by the Control - E/C button. If a part has been received from an R/O and during R/I the P/N Control or P/N E/C actuals or schedule need to be adjusted, the user will need to make the necessary updates via the P/N Control Authorization or P/N E/C Authorization windows.

Note: The R/I window will automatically update to reflect any changes made to the engineering control's status while the order is in transit.

Note: If Switch INSPOVRENG is set to Yes, the system will override overdue controls and will not display the associated overdue hard warning. For more information, refer to INSPOVRENG, via Receiving Switches.

Receiving Process

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

Select All /Deselect All button

Select or deselect all P/N Controls and P/N E/Cs.

Notes button

Select the Notes button to enter any notes that will be associated with the currently selected record. For more information, refer to Notes Button, via Standard Buttons.

Expand button/Collapse button

Select the Expand button to expand the P/N line for a tree view of all associated Controls and relevant information. Select the Collapse button to collapse the tree.

P/N

The Part Number reference for the aircraft part. Please note that any additional Part Numbers which may appear on this tab may be NLA to the NHA which appears on the Report Order Detail, General tab. ALL NLA component controls will appear under the appropriate P/N S/N.

S/N

The Serial Number for the specific serialized part.

P/N Description

The description of the part.

Select checkbox

Select this checkbox to make the control effective to the part. Once selected, the Reset Date must be updated to match the part's certification. (Refer to the Reset Date below.)

• Repair Orders: When performing R/I on a Repair Order, the Select checkbox must be selected for the P/N E/Cs being complied with and to be able to reset the times.
• Non-R/O Order Types: When performing R/I on a new part (P/O, L/O, or E/X), this checkbox is selected automatically as per the configurations for the P/N E/C in the Engineering module. To perform compliance on a P/N E/C for non-R/O order types, the Complied checkbox must be used. See Complied checkbox below.

Print checkbox

If the print checkbox was selected in the repair order (in order for the control to appear on the repair order print), the print checkbox will be selected in this Control - P/N E/C window.

Control

The time control related to the part (e.g., TSN, TSO, etc.) used to define its limits. Controls with red text are mandatory.

P/N E/Control button - This button indicates that the control is a P/N E/C. Users may select this button to view the P/N E/C, as it appears in the Engineering Control window.

P/N Control button - This icon indicates that the control is a P/N Control. The icon is an informational flag only. All P/N Controls are defined as P/N Control Codes in the system transaction codes (via Settings/ Explorer) and attached to the Part Number via the Settings/ Update/ P/N Master, P/N Control button.

Reset Date

Date and time at which control information was reset for having been performed/complied. The Reset Date field must be entered manually, and the date is mandatory when saving this window while the R/I Control is set to 'Accepted' status.
