Modify Active Modification

Explanation

This activity is used to change certain values on an active modification revision. The values that can be changed are the Category, Days Forewarning, Rescission Date and Duration Workshop.

• The modification Category decides if the assigned serials need to comply with the modification. When the category is set to Mandatory the serials must comply with the modification.
• The Days Forewarning you specify will be the number of days, before the calculated due date, that a modification task is to be created.
• The Rescission Date indicates the final date for the execution of the modification on all assigned serials.
• The Duration Workshop indicates the time needed in the workshop to perform the modification.

Prerequisites

A modification must have been defined. This modification must be in the Active status.

System Effects

• Certain values (i.e., modification category, days forewarning, rescission date and the duration in workshop) on the active modification revision are modified as per your requirements.
• If the modification category is changed to Mandatory, the value To be performed will appear automatically in the Perform Modification field (Modification Details/Assign Serials) for all serials assigned to the modification.
• If the days forewarning or the rescission date is changed, the due calculation for the modification will run automatically for all serials to calculate due dates and values.
