Which EAL code is used for a discrepancy deferred until more convenient time and could not be corrected within 24 hours?

• A. O
• B. CF
• C. CFD
• D. PP

Answer: (D)

Discrepancy disposition on the EAL communicates how and when a problem will be fixed. When a discrepancy cannot be corrected within 24 hours and is deferred to a more convenient time, the code used is PP. This flags that the issue will be addressed later and that immediate repair isn’t feasible, so a plan is set to complete the fix at a later, scheduled time. The other codes describe different statuses—whether the issue is already fixed or awaiting a different corrective action—so they don’t fit the defer-within-more-convenient-time scenario.
