Set Serial Structure Operational

Explanation

This activity is used to set the operational condition for all serials in a serial structure to Operational.

While performing this activity, the system will carry out certain configuration checks to ensure that the serial structure is valid (e.g., all the required parts have been installed and default values are generated). Furthermore, a check is performed on all life limited parts (LLPs) in order to identify if any LLP has passed its life limit.

Prerequisites

• All structure positions that are included in the minimum configuration for the template structure must exist in the serial structure. (Structure positions that are not part of the minimum configuration can also exist in the serial structure.)
• All serialized parts in the serial structure that are included in the minimum configuration must contain serial numbers. The serialized parts that are not included in the minimum configuration can exist in the serial structure without serial numbers.
• Mandatory dependency rules must have been conformed with.
• If approval records exist for the structure, these records must have been set to Approved.
• Life limits must be defined for all existing LLPs.

System Effects

If all structure requirements have been fulfilled, the operational condition is set to the Operational for all the serials in the structure.
