Which data is not typically documented when replacing an AD-related part?

When an AD-related part is replaced, the record must capture all the identifiers and actions needed to prove compliance and enable traceability. The best choice lists the date of the replacement, the inspector or technician who performed the work, the part number and serial number of the installed part, any lot numbers for batch traceability, and the AD compliance information showing which directive was addressed and that the required action was completed. Together, these elements create a verifiable record that the AD requirement was met and that the exact part installed can be identified in the future. Each item serves a purpose: the date shows when the work happened; the inspector ID ties the action to a responsible person; the part number and serial number uniquely identify the component; lot numbers help trace any batch-related issues; and AD compliance confirms the directive was properly fulfilled. Without one of these, you lose proof of compliance or traceability. The other options miss important aspects: one omits who performed the work, lot numbers, and explicit AD actions; another lacks the part identity and AD compliance; and focusing on price or supplier is not part of the standard maintenance record for AD actions.
