What additional documentation is required when a check cannot be completed?

When a check cannot be completed, the requirement for additional documentation often includes a Job Control Number (JCN), if applicable. This is significant in the context of the Navy's maintenance management system. The JCN serves as a unique identifier that tracks maintenance actions, work requests, and associated documentation related to equipment maintenance or repair activities.

By documenting the situation with a JCN, it allows for accurate record-keeping, ensures visibility into the work that has been initiated but not completed, and facilitates follow-up actions. This documentation plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of maintenance records and helps in the planning and scheduling of future work to prevent similar issues from arising. Proper adherence to this requirement ensures effective communication within the work center and ensures accountability for maintenance tasks.
