eMRO v5 - TraxDoc Module

MPD Loader to Import

Use EC Revision From File checkbox - A 'Use EC Revision From File' checkbox was added to the MPDLoader Import window. When selected, each E/C will be appointed the revision value entered in the EC_Revision column of the import file; if the EC_Revision value is left blank the E/C revision will default to the Traxdoc revision number. If the checkbox is not selected, all E/Cs will use the Traxdoc revision number.

To support this checkbox, a new version of the MPD import excel file template has been created to include the EC_Revision column. Depending on the checkbox selection, when preparing the MPD file, the users will decide which of the two import templates to use.

TraxDoc AIPC Import

Extended PN Description checkbox - This checkbox was added to the Generate/Update Data window and when selected the short and long P/N Description (provided in the AIPC) will be combined and be used for the P/N Master Description.

TraxDoc Boeing 787 IPD Import

Extended PN Description checkbox - This checkbox was added to the Generate/Update Data window and when selected the short and long P/N Description (provided in the AIPC) will be combined and be used for the P/N Master Description.

Load an AMM through TraxDoc

Ignore Panels and Zone: When importing a Revision of the manual and the 'Ignore Panels and Zones' checkbox is selected, the existing T/Cs will have their Panels and Zones unaffected by the Panel/Zone data from the revision being imported. This ensures that if the Panel and Zone data was manually updated in the Engineering module for those Task Cards, those edits will be retained after the TraxDoc revision is imported. In previous versions of TRAX, the 'ignore' function would have set the Panel/Zone data to 'null'.

Update TC Title checkbox - Select this checkbox to update the Description of the Task Cards being revised. When not selected, when a revision to a Task Card is imported, the T/C's Description in the Engineering module will remain the same and not be updated by the revision.

Load TR Files Button, via TraxDoc Document Detail, TraxDoc Explorer Tab

Oftentimes, OEMs and/or operators need to make minor changes to a manual in between official revisions. In this case, they will issue a Temporary Revision (TR). The Load TR Files button is used to load a Temporary Revision file in to a TraxDoc.

Edit XML Button, via TraxDoc Document Detail, TraxDoc Explorer Tab

The Edit XML button allows users to access the XML Editor tab which is used to edit the XML content for OEM Manuals that generate Task Card information in eMRO (i.e., AMM, NDT, MPT, etc).

TraxDoc TR Tab, via TraxDoc Document Detail, TraxDoc Explorer Tab

Oftentimes, OEMs and/or operators need to make minor changes to a manual in between official revisions. In this case, they will issue a Temporary Revision (TR). The TraxDoc TR Tab allows users to import Temporary Revisions using the Load TR files button and to create Temporary Revisions through the XML Editor tab.

Viewer Tab, via TraxDoc Document Detail

The TraxDoc Viewer tab is used to view TraxDoc files or specific sections of a Traxdoc (E.g., Chapter, Section, Task Card).

Note: The Edit button has been removed from the Viewer Tab and will remain as such in all future eMRO releases. TraxDoc Documents will be edited in the XML Editor Tab and/or during the TraxDoc Revision process. For more information regarding the XML Editor Tab, refer to TraxDoc Document Detail, XML Editor Tab.

XML Editor Tab, via TraxDoc Document Detail, TraxDoc Explorer Tab

The XML tab appears by selecting the Edit XML button via the TraxDoc Explorer tab. The content that is edited and saved in the XML Editor tab will be treated as a Temporary Revision for the applicable Traxdoc and it must follow the TraxDoc TR Authorization process. Once the Authorization process is completed the changes made in the XML Editor tab will be applied to the TraxDoc by merging the documents via the TraxDoc TR tab.

AeroDox Full Export Button, via TraxDoc Master

The AeroDox Full Export emro_aerodox_full_export_master_data button re-syncs any applicable TraxDoc manuals with the AeroDox app. This button is useful if any TraxDoc manuals that were already loaded onto AeroDox but may contain any errors/issues.

File Description: A File Description can be entered to further explain the purpose of the attachment.

Orphan PDF Supp: If a new Revision is created for the TraxDoc, any PDFs that were loaded supplementally to the TraxDoc will not be deleted but will instead be moved into a folder called 'Orphan PDF Supp'.

Load Directory Button, via TraxDoc Document Detail, TraxDoc Explorer Tab

Through the Load Directory but_load directory button of the TraxDoc Explorer tab, an entire directory of supplemental files (usually PDFs) could be loaded from the traxdoc share drive into the TraxDoc Master record.

This doctype is used to side load more than one Toolbox Remote Manual directly onto the AeroDox eMobility App. The Document No. field in the General tab is used to specify the file name for the TBR to be side loaded into the iPads with AeroDox.
