Close Work Order - Return to Service

The purpose of this procedure is to close a work order, return the maintenance object back to service and install the object in a complex component or aircraft.

Before You Start

Before you begin, the following prerequisites must be met:

  • All operations and material lines must be reported for the work order (status 90). This applies when parameter 18 in 'Settings - Maintenance 1' (CRS788) is set to 2.
  • The service(s) included in the work order must be approved (status 70).
  • The work order type should be defined with configuration management activated. This is done via parameter 150 in 'Work Order Type. Open' (MOS120).

Follow These Steps

  1. Start 'Work Order. Open' (MOS100/B).

  2. Highlight the work order to be closed and select option 14='Close WO' to display 'Work Order. Close' (MOS050/E).

  3. If the Warehouse and Location fields are specified, clear them.

  4. Confirm the entries by pressing Enter. A check is made to ensure that the object may be installed in the specified configuration position. 'As-Built Structure. Update Removal/Inst' (MOS125) is displayed.

  5. The work order status is then updated to (status 90) and a stock transaction is created, which moves the object from the shop floor to the aircraft or complex component. This can be confirmed in 'As-Built Structure. Display' (MOS253) and 'As-Built Structure. Display Indented' (MOS252).
