Mechanic’s Cockpit Learning Points

- What was needed

Single point of entry for all mechanics’ SAPneeds.

Single screen to create and/or complete

ALL ORDERS. (Including all systemicactions (labor recording, material

movements including warehouse

management, catalog info, etc)

Cockpit provides only what the users need,

with no extra or confusing screens.

Mechanic Cockpit Rationale Mechanics are often the least trained in SAP.

Mechanics often have significant turnover. SAP screens can be cumbersome for non-super

users, especially in the PM area.

There are too many transactions to complete awork order, especially when user statuses are

desired.

Emergency orders commonly are needed after

hours and are the most susceptible to improperor no documentation.

The easier it is to document, the more likely it will

be done consistently.

[ Mechanic’s Cockpit Technical Backbone Cockpit design ensured a stable, reliable method for

accessing the SAP functionality through the use ofstandard SAP BAPIs (Business Application

Programming Interfaces)

No worries about screen layout changes for future

releases Easy updating capabilities for future requirements

and needs

Integrated user status management with standard

SAP functions to drive process enforcement. Simple modular design for easy changes to ABAP

code
