Usage

Use this tab to return any parts that are identified to be moved to inventory during execution of the work. For a serial part it is possible to return one or more serials at the same time. In this tab user can define/alter any information such as Serial No, Lot/Batch No, Location, Operational Condition, Ownership, Owner, Condition Code and W/D/R No, if appropriate.

 Unplanned material returned through this tab will not create a return line or a planning line in the Planning tab of the work task.

When returning a part to inventory, you can order the part tag report and serviceability tag report for the part. These reports can then be printed and sent to inventory along with the part.

The serviceability tag refers to the tag used in the Aviation industry to clearly identify an uninstalled component or assembly and its current status. If the part being returned is a serial part, the serviceability tag will be ordered in the status determined by the operational status and operational condition (current or new operational condition) of the serial. Therefore, for serials with the Scrapped operational status, the serviceability tag will be ordered and prepared for printing with the Scrapped serviceability status. For serials with the Operational operational condition, the tag will be printed with the Serviceable serviceability status and for serials with the Non Operational operational condition, the tag will be printed with the Unserviceable serviceability status.
For a non-serial part, you need to manually enter the serviceability status in the Print Serviceability Tag dialog box that will open once you click Return to Inventory or Return & Close in this dialog box.
Prior to returning a serial to inventory you have the option of changing the operational condition on the serial to either Operational or Non Operational.
