Mark Material Defect as Repair#

MaterialDefect.Repair

Overview#

This operation is used to repair a specific Material Defect.

Info

For more information, see Material Defects and Manage Repair Policy.

Setup#

No special setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

Preconditions#

The Material exists and it is Active.
The Material must have open defects (Open Defect Count must be higher than zero).
The Product Repair Policy can affect the possibility of repairing the Material.

Note

By default, repair operations can be executed directly from the Open state. To introduce an additional validation step, you can enable the Confirmed state, which requires defects to be confirmed before a repair can be performed, while all other defect-handling actions remain available from the Open state. This behavior is controlled by the /Cmf/System/Configuration/MaterialTracking/Defects/ConfirmationRequired system configuration entry (defaults to false).

Sequence of Steps#

Open the Material and navigate to the Defects view.
Select a Material Defect from the Defects panel on the left side of the screen.
Select the Repair button on the top ribbon.
Select a Repair Action from the available list of actions associated to the Reason. Each one has a specific setting for Part Replacement Mode with specific settings:
- Allowed - a replacement Material can be selected.
- Not Allowed - a replacement Material cannot be selected.
- Required - a replacement Material must be selected.
Optionally, select a replacement Material. This allows the selection of a Loss Reason and Loss Quantity entry.
Verify the information and enter a Closing Remark if needed.
Select the Repair button to complete the operation.
