From the main window there are two distinctive ways of accessing EGSE record information:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6.2.      Creating an EGSE Validation Record

 

There are three steps you will always need to follow in order to create an EGSE validation record in E-Logbook:

 

1)  Select the EGSE unit you want to create a record of.

2)  Access the EGSE unit Report or Configuration Log to monitor which records have been already created for this unit.

3)  Create the record by clicking add from the report window.

 

6.2.1. New EGSE

 

If the EGSE you are about to validate is not in E-Logbook you will have to create it:

 

 

 

 

The EGSE record window will appear: 

 

 

·      Enter the Name of the EGSE you want to create a record of.

·      Enter the EGSE Assy. Number; or in case of a Workstation type EGSE, its location.

·      Click Save.

·      The new EGSE will appear in the EGSE List in the main window and will also be selected.

 

 

You can also create a new Assy. Number/Location for an existing EGSE in a quick way:

 

·      Select the EGSE from the EGSE List in the Main window.

·      Click New. The EGSE record window will appear, this time with the Name already entered, and read only:

 

 

 

·      Enter the new Assy. Number/Location.

·      Click Save.

·      The new EGSE will appear in the EGSE List in the Main window and will also be selected.

 

If you change your mind click Cancel.

 

6.2.2. EGSE Validation Report

 

Once the EGSE you want to create a validation record of is listed the Main window, you can proceed to access its report. The EGSE Report will list all validation records created on a certain EGSE thought the lifetime of I&T.

 

 

The EGSE Validation Report window will appear:

 

 

 

There are two activities you can perform in this window:

 

·      Access a certain EGSE Validation Record: you can do this by double clicking on the record you are interested on.

·      Create a new EGSE Validation Record: click Add in the bottom right of the window.

 

Click Done or the X in the top right corner of the window when you are finished with the report.

 

6.2.3. EGSE Validation Record

 

The EGSE Validation Record is the heart of the EGSE part of E-Logbook:

 

 

In order to create an EGSE Validation Record you need to enter the following information:

 

·      EGSE Type

·      EGSE Components

·      Validation Document

·      Validation Operator and QA

 

The Validation Expiration Date is automatically determined from the earliest expiration date in the list of EGSE Components.

 

6.2.3.1.                                    Add EGSE Components

 

 

In order to add an EGSE Component you need to enter the following information:

·      Select EGSE Component Type:

o       HW Connector

o       FHW Component

o       EGSE HW Component

o       EGSE SW Component

o       EGSE (for Hybrid EGSE that are created from other EGSE assemblies)

·      Select EGSE Component from the list, such that you display:

o       If the EGSE Component is not in the corresponding EGSE Type list click New in order to add it to the list of current and future selection (in order to do so follow the same steps as in 6.2.1).

 

 

·      Remove and Date are automatically entered for you.

·      Description and R/D display your current EGSE Component selection from the list.

·      Enter the Validation Document.

·      Enter the Validation Expiration, or N/A if Not Applicable.

Repeat this operation as many times needed in order to enter all the components in the EGSE Record you are about to validate. Once the list is complete finish up by adding the validation document and OP and QA stamp, and press Save.

 

You can always access the record in order to add comments. Press Cancel at any time to abort the creation of the record. Please note that all information added, including EGSE Component information, will be lost.

 

Once you press Save the newly created EGSE Validation record will appear both in the EGSE Report and Configuration Log windows, with the appropriate color code.

 

6.3.      Revalidate EGSE

 

For EGSE that has expired or is about to expire validation you will need to revalidate by updating the information on E-Logbook. In order to revalidate EGSE you can create a new Validation Record from scratch or if possible you will be better off by revalidating the an existing record.

 

In order to do this:

 

·        Access the EGSE Validation Report and select the latest EGSE Validation record; or

·        Access the EGSE Configuration Log and select the EGSE Record you wish to revalidate.

 

Once you access the EGSE Validation Record click on Revalidate. This will enable all the fields for update.

 

In order to update/revalidate the list of EGSE Components there are several things you can do:

 

·        You can Add/Remove a Component by selecting Yes or No from the drop down list in the Remove column.

·        You can click the Add button in order to add more EGSE Components to the list.

·        You can double click on an existing component in order to update its information. In order to do so you will need to click revalidate once you access the component window:

 

 

The Component T

·        The EGSE Component Type, Description and R/D will be pre-selected in order to maintain the current component information.

·        The Validation Document, Expiration Date and OP will be enabled to be updated.

 

You can always press Cancel at any time in order to abort the Revalidation. Please note that all changes, removes and adds made to the EGSE will be lost.

 

Note: You can also revalidate from an EGSE Record other than the latest one in the EGSE Report if it contains a list of components that is closer to the list you need to create for the new EGSE Validation Record.
