Define Discrepancy Code
Explanation
Use this activity to define a discrepancy code. Discrepancy
codes are used to describe problems, deficiencies, or discrepancies identified
during a disposition inspection.
Prerequisites
- Discrepancy codes can be entered at any time. However, it is intended that
discrepancy codes will be entered after the structures the discrepancy codes
address have been transferred from VIM.
System Effects
- Discrepancy codes are created
and available to associate with parts later in the MRO process.
- When MRO interim order structures are created, the discrepancy code will be used to determine which routing operations and
manufacturing structures records to select.
