TIME UPDATE & PRIOR MAINTENANCE LOGS
TMI Entry allows for accumulation of time and landings against aircraft or components. These time and landing accumulations may be handled together with maintenance entries, although recommended RAAS workflows separate them into Time Update and Prior Maintenance posts, with the former being completed before the latter.
Hours and landings may not be changed subsequent to posting, with a Correction Log being required to account for any errors.
Posted logs become visible in TMI Manager.
Flight Logs provides an alternate and more detailed method for accumulation of time and landing data.
Separate Time Tracking for a component can be enabled at the part description level in Item Management.
