Enter Operational Parameters per Part

Explanation

This activity is used to enter operational parameters for a part. This activity makes it possible to enter life limits for life limited parts. The operational parameters will be copied to all maintenance groups defined for the serial part. One of the operational parameters must be defined as a primary operational parameter. This is the same for all maintenance groups and cannot be changed if one of the serials defined for the part number and maintenance group has operational loggings.

Prerequisites

Operational parameters must be defined.
A serial part must exist.

System Effects

For life limited parts, it is possible to define life limits for the operational parameters entered.
When adding new operational parameters, any maintenance group defined for the part is updated with the new operational parameter.
It is possible to add a new operational parameter to a maintenance group that is not defined for the serial part. For more information, refer to the activity Supply Operational Parameter Information.
All operational parameters for a maintenance group can be removed as long as none of the serials defined for the part number and maintenance group have operational loggings.
You can register operational log data for all of the serials belonging to a registered part number and maintenance group.

Procedure

Open the Serial Part window and query (F3) for your part.
Click the Operational Parameters tab and create a new record (F5).
In the Operational Parameter field, enter the new operational parameter. Use the List of Values to select a valid value.
If this operational parameter is to be used for life limit tracking, select the Life Limit Tracking check box.
Save the record (F12).

Note: You can also enter operational parameters for a part in the Operational Parameters per Part window.
