Complete Off Log Structure for New Serials

Explanation

This activity is used to populate missing parts/serials of the Off Log structure for a selected branch of the Off Log structure. Serials which are different to the ones that are expected may be added to the work scope during the disassembly. This activity requires that the Off Log structure node does not have structure information yet in the Off Log while the serial structure information exists in VIM. When the prerequisites have been fulfilled, this activity will read the serial structure information and store that into the Off Log. You are allowed to populate one or all levels from the serial structure.

If this unexpected or new serial's structure carries position parts holding a quantity higher than one for serialized parts, then they will be added to the Map Serial Numbers tab in Change Work Scope Tasks window. It is also be possible to populate the Off Log for a certain work order with selected structure branches for a given parent serial that already exists in the Off Log. When executing this activity if all the serial structure information have not yet been entered in IFS/VIM (IFS/Vehicle Information Management), then serialized parts with serial numbers and non-serialized parts will be inserted to the Off Log. 

Prerequisites

•  A work scope must exist.
•  New serials in work scope do not yet have structure information in the Off Log.
•   Structure information for new serials has been entered in IFS/VIM.
•    Assembly has not started.

System Effects

•  The Off Log is populated with structure information.
•  Adding tasks for new serial and its structure can be added in Change Work Scope Tasks window.

Procedure

Option 1:

1. In the Task Summary window query (F3) the work order for which you created the work scope.
2. Click the Off Log tab and select the new serial which does not have structure information yet in the Off Log. Note that for such serials both Added to Work Scope and Lacking Structure check boxes are selected.
3. Right-click and then click Complete Off Log Structure to copy structure information to Off Log from IFS/VIM. If you wish to copy one level then select Copy only one level checkbox in the Complete Off Log Structure dialog box.

Option 2:

1. Open the Change Work Scope Tasks window and query for the new serial which does not have structure information yet in the Off Log.
2. Right-click and the click Complete Off Log Structure from the header to copy its structure information to the Off Log.

Note: The function Complete Off Log Structure doesn't copy serials without serial numbers in a structure. In such cases you need to complete the structure information in VIM and select the Complete Partial Off Log option available from the tab Serial Structure Information/Consist Of. 

Option 4:

1. Open Serial Structure Information window and query for the serial which has been added to the work scope with lacking structure information.
2. Click the Consist Of  tab and select the serial which lacks the serial information and complete all the necessary information. 
3. Next select the right mouse button option Complete Partial Off Log on the selected serial to open the Complete Partial Off Log dialog box. In the Destination Work Scope field enter the work order number or use the List button to select the the work order number for which you created the work scope and press OK.
4. Observe that the Off Log is updated with new serial's structure information.
   Note that the above steps can be followed on each included parent of a top serial added to the work scope as a DPF or new serial.
