Benefits of technology
The present patent provides a method, apparatus, computer storage medium, and system for performing at least one of loading a plurality of articles onto and into an object using an interactive electronic technical manual system (IETM). The method involves providing a digital model of the object with multiple positions selectable by a user, receiving input of selection of one or more of the positions, and displaying a list of articles that can be loaded at each position. The user can then select one or more articles from the list for loading. The system generates a digital workflow based on the selected positions and the articles, providing step-by-step procedures for loading the articles onto the object. The technical effects of this patent include improved efficiency and accuracy in loading multiple articles onto an object and providing a more user-friendly and intuitive interface for accessing and using the IETM system.
Problems solved by technology
This results in a lot of time spent by users, trying to look in many different places (and sometimes, out of exasperation, just look from A to Z) to find the information, which results in inefficiency, loss of time, and waste of expensive resources.
Furthermore, although many conventional IETMs provide some type of interactive functionality with respect to the technical data that allow users to interactively view the data, such functionality is typically limited to capabilities and do not address many of the technical issues encountered when providing an electronic interface for a large amount of information, as well as technical improvements that provide features beyond just simply allowing the user to view such information.
Many conventional IETMs fail to provide functionality to control secure access to the technical data, as well as control user functionality within the IETMs in viewing and using the technical data in a secure manner.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus, systems, computer program products for performing loading articles onto and / or into an object comprising positions at which the articles can be loaded. In one embodiment, a method is provided comprising: providing a digital model of the object comprising the positions as selectable; receiving selection of positions; responsive to receiving the selection, for each selected position: providing a list of articles that can be loaded at the position in which each article is selectable; and receiving selection of articles from the list; responsive to receiving the selection, recording the articles for the position; receiving an indication to generate a digital workflow for loading the articles onto and / or into the object; and responsive to receiving the indication: generating the digital workflow based on the articles selected for each position that includes procedures to be performed to load the articles onto and / or into the object.
Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 17 / 026,636, filed Sep. 21, 2020, the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety into the present application.TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD[0002]Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to providing enhanced functionality in an interactive electronic technical manual (IETM). The inventors have developed solutions that increase the efficiency, functionality, speed, capabilities, and user friendliness over conventional IETMs.BACKGROUND[0003]IETMs and other technical data generally hold large amounts of information that can include multiple volumes and hundreds or thousands of data modules when in electronic format. When users of IETMs, or other technical data that are provided electronically, need to look for a specific subject, they need to go over a lengthy electronic table of contents, similar to a paper book, but using links, which ca...
