Perform Sign Off of Task

Explanation

This activity is used to perform inspector sign off of tasks that have sign off requirements. The following rules apply when signing off a task:

• If sign off requirements with both Inspector and Counter Inspector requirement types are defined on the task, two different persons are required to sign off the task.
• If a license has been defined for the inspector sign off requirements on the task, the person signing off the task must have the necessary qualifications to perform the sign off. Note: If a license is not used for the inspector sign off requirements when signing off, the identity of the person performing the sign off is retained but validations will not be performed.
• When signing off a task where more than one signature requirement has been defined for the same requirement type, only one signature can be specified and the person signing off must have all licenses required.

Prerequisites

To perform this activity, tasks with inspector sign off requirements must exist on the maintenance order. The tasks must be in the Work Done status.

System Effects

• The task is signed off.
• The ID of the person who performed the sign off and the date of signing off is entered automatically on the sign off requirement.
• If all sign off requirements have been performed on the task, the Sign Off Performed check box is selected on the task record.
• Inspector sign off information on the task will be retained in history.
• Depending on the type of task being signed off, the due calculation for interval maintenance, modifications, post maintenance checks, life limited parts or fault deferrals will run automatically for the serial to calculate new due dates and values.
