Using operations tasks, you can manage recurring tasks in SAP Solution Manager.

Integration

You can create operations tasks as follows:

  • In the SAP Solution Manager Technical Administration work center, in the Task Management view, the IT Task Planning screen lists guided procedures.

  • In the SAP Solution Manager IT Service Management WebClient UI, the system creates operations tasks automatically. When a service request is approved, a corresponding guided procedure creates the operations tasks.

Features

The operations task (transaction type SMOT) is based on the service request transaction type.

If the operations task is created in IT Service Management, it contains a link to the corresponding guided procedure in the Details assignment block, in the References screen area.

Using operations tasks, you can do the following:

  • Assign operations tasks to processors

  • Schedule and follow up work items

  • Provide information about how to process a task

  • Record effort

  • Confirm completion
