3–18. Reporting requirements
a. Serial number reporting is not required when a serviceable item is removed solely to aid other maintenance
actions and the same serial numbered item is to be immediately reinstalled on the item from which it was removed.
b. Serial number reporting is required when a designated NSN in table 3–3 or the MMDF has a maintenance action
taken on it. The following action codes are used when adding a task to a work order in SAMS:
(1) A—Replaced.
(2) C—Repaired.
(3) H—Modification work order applied.
(4) O—(Alpha) Overhauled.
(5) R—Removed.
(6) S—Installed.
3–19. DA Form 2408-14
a. Purpose. DA Form 2408–14 is a record of uncorrected faults and deferred maintenance actions on equipment.
Deferred maintenance actions are authorized delays for repair or maintenance. Equipment with deferred maintenance
does not meet the Army maintenance standard as addressed in AR 750–1.
b. Use.
(1) DA Form 2408–14 serves as a record of uncorrected faults and deferred maintenance—that is, an authorized
delay for maintenance actions.
(2) Deferred or delayed maintenance can affect operation of the equipment, mission performance, and safety.
Therefore, the commander or commander’s designated representative determines when a fault is to be transcribed to
DA Form 2408–14. Faults not requiring parts, or faults for which parts are on hand, are corrected without delay per AR
750–1. Status symbol X faults are not entered on DA Form 2408–14.
(3) DA Form 2408–14 is kept on any item or group of items that has an open deferred maintenance action. This
form is not required when an automated system provides a list or printout of deferred maintenance and uncorrected
faults that includes all elements on DA Form 2408–14.
(4) Units using ULLS do not use DA Form 2408–14.
c. General instructions.
(1) Maintenance status symbol HORIZONTAL DASH (-) and DIAGONAL SLASH (/) faults are annotated on DA
Form 2408–14 (fig 3–44).
(2) When a deferred maintenance action exists on an item of equipment, DA Form 2408–14 is with the equipment
when the equipment is undergoing maintenance, on dispatch, under operation, or undergoing a service or inspection.
(3) Separate forms are not required for items (except reportable subsystems) like rifles, protective masks, and M11
decon apparatus, when one DA Form 2404 has been used to inspect and record the status of those items. A single form
may be used to show deferred faults on such items as long as each fault entry is preceded in column b by the items
administration or serial number.
(4) Operators or crews check the form before each dispatch. Look for faults that may affect the mission and faults
that are overdue to be fixed. For example, look at any dates in column c that have passed or actions that have already
been taken. Tell the maintenance supervisor about any found.
(5) Maintenance supervisors and section leaders (platoon) review the forms periodically (not less than every 2 weeks
for Active Army and 1 month for National Guard/Reserve Components). Check on the status of parts on order. Look
for any faults that have been fixed, but not closed out. Check for any faults overdue to be fixed.
