Heli-d it would help if you answered windowseat's earlier questions.
As an examiner in the UK I don't think I have the authority to endorse someones skill test form that way, its either pass, partial pass or fail. I cannot take it upon myself to seemingly fail someone and give judgement as to when they will be competent.
I guess someone at a National Authority might be able to do this, but even then if they subscribe to the JARs (at the moment) how can they say this ?
Perhaps there is an obscure bit of the requirements or national legislation that allows this, let us know if you find out any more.

Sounds like the manufacturer doesn't know the rules, but then what has the regulator done with the rating application processing?
JAR FCL does not recognise Command and Co-Pilot ratings, unlike some other organisations (and the UK did previously) and even if it did, they would only be relevant, from an FCL perspective, in an MPH type. The LST and LPC are simple pass or fail items and the decision as to what role the pilot actually operates in is recorded in the OPC and Line Check - by the operator.

skill test with restrections
heli-d
We had the same note in the skill test (pass with restriction in remark field) our CAA suspends the license and replace it with a validation until the pilot terminate the flying hours.
