KSD2.
Overlapping Labor Procedure – Other Repairs
If invoicing the KSD2 flat rate labor operation codes for other repair work results in overlapping labor, for those
flat rate labor operations that are affected, you can now:
Replace the stated KSD2 “FRU allowance” with a “reduced FRU value” to eliminate the overlapping labor.
For help in identifying the overlapping labor, please refer to the AIR FRU Plausibility Check (Overlapping Labor
Tool) that is located in the AIR Client.
Eligible other repair work being claimed under a different defect code will require separate punch times.
On the repair order and in the claim comment section, please identify and itemize those labor operations being
claimed with a “reduced FRU value.”
