MPDLNROE - Override Effectivity in MPD Loader

Override Effectivity in MPD Loader

Affected Window: w_manufacturer_data_import

Note: This functionality only works if the 'Override Existing Information' checkbox is selected, via the Manufacturer Data Import window.

Set Up:

The following E/C has been created:

The aircraft effectivity for the E/C is set up as follows:

Switch Set to Yes:

When set to Yes, the system will allow override effectivity when loading a new revision using the MPD Loader functionality.

Go to Engineering/ Update/ Manufacturer Data Import.

Select an import file with appropriate information and begin the import process:

Note: The Override Existing Information checkbox is selected.

The import is complete:

The effectivity is overridden:

Switch Set to No:

When set to No, the system will not allow override effectivity when loading a new revision using the MPD Loader functionality.

Override Existing Information checkbox via MPD Loader

If the Override Existing Information checkbox is selected, and Switch MPDLNROE is set to No, then the engineering effectivity for Aircraft tail numbers that have the Override checkbox selected will not be overridden by the MPD Load. (In this scenario, the Override checkbox for these Aircraft will not be deselected; their overridden schedules and effective dates will not be affected by the MPD Load.)

Notice the following Aircraft tail number has the Override selected.

Now notice the MPD Loader will be run with the 'Override Existing Information' checkbox selected.

Because switch MPDLNROE is set to No, although the 'Override Existing Information' checkbox was selected for the MPD, the Override checkbox for the aircraft's engineering effectivity was not affected. The previously overridden schedules and effective date remained the same after the MPD was imported.
