Narrative:
On nov/fri/04, aircraft X in ZZZ was assigned a periodic service inspection. However, service inspection dependability check was accomplished. Upon entering the workload for today's assigned inspections, the check that came up on the computer was a 'done' -- I entered 'Y' for yes. I simply did not catch the fact that the previous shift had issued the wrong inspection paperwork.
