Define Post Maintenance Checks on Modification

Explanation

This activity is used to define post maintenance checks for a modification. The purpose of a post maintenance check is to perform inspections after the modification is complied with to ensure that no consequences are introduced. Each post maintenance check is created as a pending task as soon as the planned task date of the check is within the given number of days of forewarning. Only one check per modification or serial may be pending or running at the same time.

Prerequisites

To perform this activity, the modification must have the Preliminary status.

System Effects

When a serial has complied with a modification having post maintenance checks, a pending task is created as soon as the planned task date of the check is within the given number of days forewarning.
