TRAX MANUALS > Engineering > Engineering Module - E/C > Engineering E/C, Update Menu > Engineering Control > Engineering Control Buttons > P/N CTL Button, via Engineering Control > Engineering Control P/N, General Tab > Engineering Control Range Button, via Engineering Control P/N, General Tab

The Range button allows users to specify the P/N E/C effectivity status for ranges of Serial Numbers. All other S/Ns that don't fall in within the specified S/N ranges (if any) will be set to a default status. The S/N ranges and statuses set up through this button will come into effect for the various S/Ns as those S/Ns are initially loaded into the system (via P/Os, L/Os, P/N Initial Loads, etc.).

From the Engineering Control Range pop-up window, select the New button to create a serial number range with applicable status and reason information for in range and out of range serial numbers.

Note: The Source, Status, Reason, and Default for S/N Out of Ranges section are only available when Engineering switch ADDSTENGRANGE is set to Yes.

Note: For more information on how P/N E/C Effectivity can be affected throughout the system, refer to the P/N E/C Effectivity Tracking Guide.

The following information/options are available in this window:
