LOG_EAM_LINEAR_2 BI content for linear assets, additional services enhanced with linear attributes, enhancements of networks, and dynamic segmentation



CO account assignment at the operation level of PM/CS orders

- The operation account assignment enables the plant maintenance (PM) and customer service (CS) order operation as a controlling object. This permits the detailed planning, capture, and reporting of costs at the order operation level. - The operations have their own settlement rules, enabling more accurate cost updating of multiple assets maintained by using a single PM/CS work breakdown structure.

- Reduced number of orders, which in turn reduces order backlog - Improved asset valuation due to more granular job costing - Enhanced regulatory reporting capability - Improved estimates for customer service orders - Improved project cost reporting

LOG_EAM_OLC_2 More granular cost collection allows reduced order quantities, better backlog management, and improved asset costing for regulatory reporting

Enhanced draft handling

On the one hand, drafts can be used to store project changes intermediately without directly updating operational projects for what-if scenarios. On the other hand, drafts can be used to ensure that changes will not get lost in case of errors during saving in background processing. This business function enables draft handling of additional data sets such as dates and relationships, activity processing, and capacity availability checks based on draft data. The draft workbench has also been improved to allow aggregated display of deviations in draft comparison or selection of drafts by projects across users. Warning messages in case of operational project changes are issued in case of existing drafts.

- Customers now can save schedule and activity processing changes in the terms of drafts or in background. - Capacity availability checks can be performed on draft data to ensure the availability of capacities prior to updating operational project data. - Users working on operational project data are aware of existing drafts and can easily analyze draft responsibilities and potential differences between drafts.

SAP Enhancement Package 5 for SAP ERP 6.0


Budget approval for maintenance order

For critical, high-value maintenance orders, it is essential for the planner to check to see if enough budget provision is available for maintaining a technical object. Based on the results, the planner can request approval for the order and the cost controller can approve the work. The budget forecast is retracted from the maintenance cost budget. Actual utilization is calculated based on past orders and work in progress.

Continuous monitoring of cost of maintenance and maintenance budget can uncover technical objects with poor reliability and lead to improved asset performance

LOG_EAM_CI_4 Continuous improvements of maintenance execution and maintenance planning processes.



CO account assignment at the operation level of PM/CS orders

- The operation account assignment enables the plant maintenance (PM) and customer service (CS) order operation as a controlling object. This permits the detailed planning, capture, and reporting of costs at the order operation level. - The operations have their own settlement rules, enabling more accurate cost updating of multiple assets maintained by using a single PM/CS work order.

- Reduced number of orders, which in turn reduces order backlog - Improved asset valuation due to more granular job costing - Enhanced regulatory reporting capability - Improved estimates for customer service orders - Improved project cost reporting

enhancements remove these restrictions. Along with new master data, an extractor for simulated cost, 0PM_PRM_PLCS_1, provides additional details like material requirement, services that are required to be procured, and efforts for each work center, including the controlling activity type. The extra details can be used for optimizing maintenance plans.



Individual approval and valuation of safety measures: order operation level

This feature supports valuation of mandatory instructions on the operational level of the order, where each instruction is represented as an individual approval (and all approvals to be valuated are part of an approval group). For maintenance purposes, optimized execution of complex maintenance work requires tagging a certain package of WCD items before the first part of maintenance work is executed. Afterwards, another package is tagged, again followed by the execution of certain maintenance operations. A similar interdependence is possible during untagging.

Integration with unique item identifiers (UIIs)

In some business processes, it is necessary to identify items uniquely worldwide (such as individual components). Although a serial number is unique for a manufacturer, several items can have the same serial number due to different materials and different manufacturers. The serial number is therefore not unique worldwide. The unique item identifier (UII), however, is unique worldwide. The unique identification of items is available in many logistical processes. If a UII exists, identify the UII instead of the
