Extract Aircraft Configuration From Maintenix¶
One way of loading configuration data to Mobile Maintenance for Aviation, is by extracting aircraft configuration information from Maintenix.
You can extract configuration data from Maintenix, by writing a script to prepare a csv file, which then be loaded to the Aircraft Configuration Loader in IFS Cloud. The csv file is loaded to the aircraft configuration data loading migration job and the migration job is executed afterwards.
Tables and columns in the Maintenix database to extract information from and load information to are as follows.
Create or update assemblies¶
Use the mapping information below to extract assemblies where the assembly class is not COMHW (Common Hardware) and TSE (Tools and Service Equipment)
| Table in Maintenix | Column to extract | Aircraft Configuration Loader csv file column to write to | Aircraft Configuration Loader csv column name | Aircraft Configuration Loader csv column value to write | Data Type (Max Length) | Mapped Table in MM for Aviation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Create or update systems and sub-systems¶
Systems and Sub-systems in Maintenix are extracted from the same table. Systems are at a higher level and sub-systems are ranked beneath. For example the system code of a system is 25 and the sub-systems are 25-10, 25-20, and so on.
Use the mapping information below to extract systems where the config slot class is SYS connected to the ROOT (Root) config slot, and the assembly type code is not COMHW (Common Hardware) or TSE (Tools and Service Equipment).
