Check: Conflict (SAP Library - Plant Maintenance (PM))

Check: Conflict

Use

Obligatory check whether the required operational conditions/types of a technical object can also be tagged/untagged within an operational group.

Features

A conflict record is written by the system at the start of a new tagging phase. This entry is only deleted again once the position has been untagged or temporarily untagged.

At the start of each operational phase, the system checks all available conflict records to see whether the operational conditions/types required for a technical object can also be tagged/untagged in the operational work clearance document. This check is based on general and user-defined conflict rules, which are checked for tagging, untagging and temporary untagging.

Activities

In the case of a conflict, you can:

Stop tagging/untagging and remove the conflict

Ignore the conflict and continue tagging/untagging. However, you require a special authorization for this.

If you ignore a conflict, the status CONF (= conflict) is also assigned to the technical object by the system. If during lockout/tagout, the technical object for which the conflict arose is, for example, untagged, then the conflict is automatically withdrawn.
