Integrated Maintenance Data System (IMDS) Screens Practice Test

Labor hours are recorded on the Job Card attached to the Work Order because this document is specifically designed to log what work was performed, who did it, and how long it took. It creates a direct, auditable link between the tasks on that work order and the time spent, which is essential for accurate labor tracking, cost accounting, and maintenance history. The Parts screen is for recording parts used, not the duration of labor. The customer invoice may reflect billed hours, but it isn’t the primary source for capturing the actual labor activity. A supplier's shipment notice relates to incoming parts and doesn't capture labor details.
