Remove Superfluous Tasks

Explanation

Use this activity to remove any tasks previously included in the work scope that no longer need to be performed due to changes in the part structure. Normally this would occur after a different part found scenario.

The program provides information about the parts that have been marked as removed from the Off Structure and have tasks included in the work scope. Utilizing this information and examining the tasks that now may be removed can be done in the Change Work Scope Tasks window. A list of all the parts can be viewed in the Superfluous Tasks tab. In this tab select the serial part number that is no longer located at the anticipated position in the structure right-click and click the Remove All Tasks For Serial option. As a result, all tasks connected to the selected serial and all affected parts on the tasks connected will be removed from the work scope.

Prerequisites

• A running work scope with included tasks.
• A structural change during disassembly on a level not yet disassembled or a different part found scenario forcing an update of the planned disassembly structure.
• Tasks included to the work scope that are no longer relevant to perform due to the structural changes.

System Effects

The work scope for the overhaul object is modified to reflect the changes in the structure.
