Perform Independent Sign Off

Explanation

This activity is used to sign off operations or subtasks (from IFS/Vehicle Information Management) having Independent sign off requirements. When this activity is performed, and license requirements are defined, the system will check whether the current user fulfills requirements for performing independent sign off, after which the operation or subtask will be signed off and the operation changed to the Finished status.

Note: The person performing an independent sign off cannot be the same person who performed executor or inspector sign off.

Prerequisites

• The operation or subtask must exist in the Work Done status.
• Independent sign off requirements must have been defined on the operation or subtask.
• If there is a requirement for inspector sign off, this must have been performed prior to independent sign off.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, an independent sign off is performed on the operation or subtask. The operation is changed to the Finished status.
