Maintenance templates
What it is
Section titled “What it is”A maintenance template is a pre-defined maintenance task you can apply to an asset. The template defines the name, description, interval type, and interval value; applying it creates a tracked maintenance item on the asset.
Syndik8 ships with a fixed catalogue of aircraft templates: Annual Inspection, ARC, 50-Hour Check, 100-Hour Check, Oil Change, and Transponder Check. When adding a maintenance item, you pick from this catalogue; the app does not support authoring custom templates.
Who can use it
Section titled “Who can use it”Admins apply templates to create maintenance items. All members see the items that result.
Where to find it
Section titled “Where to find it”- Maintenance list → Add → From template.
- Picked templates appear in a bottom sheet. Tapping a template opens the setup sheet to enter the “last completed” value or date.
- Route:
/syndicates/:syndicateId/assets/:assetId/maintenance.
Fields / options
Section titled “Fields / options”Template fields:
| Field | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Yes | E.g. Annual Inspection. |
| Description | No | What the task covers. |
| Interval type | Yes | Hours or Days. |
| Interval value | Yes | Number in the chosen unit. |
| Estimated duration (minutes) | No | Informational; used for calendar blocking when scheduled. |
Default aircraft templates
Section titled “Default aircraft templates”| Template | Interval | Warning threshold |
|---|---|---|
| Annual Inspection | 365 days | 30 days |
| Airworthiness Review Certificate (ARC) | 365 days | 60 days |
| 50-Hour Check | 50 hours | 10 hours |
| 100-Hour Check | 100 hours | 15 hours |
| Oil Change | 50 hours | 10 hours |
| Transponder Check | 730 days (24 months) | 60 days |
Three of these (Annual Inspection, ARC, and 50-Hour Check) are marked “core” and are offered first in the onboarding wizard. The other three are offered as “Want to add more?” after the core items are configured.
Behaviour rules
Section titled “Behaviour rules”- Applying a template creates a standalone item. The resulting item does not retain a reference to the template, and completing it does not automatically create a follow-on item. You log completions manually via the maintenance item screen.
- A template’s interval cannot be overridden per asset. If you need a different interval for one asset, create a custom one-off item instead.
- The catalogue is shared across all syndicates. All syndicates see the same seeded templates; there are no per-syndicate custom templates.
