Analyzing Costs 

  1. Choose the menu bar sequence Logistics ® Plant maintenance ® Maintenance task lists and then Evaluations ® Costing PM task lists

    2. The screen Task list costing is displayed.

  2. Select the maintenance task list type for which you want to perform the cost analysis.

    3. Within a task list type you can restrict the selection further if required, by entering one or more pieces of equipment or functional locations, a specified task list group and/or specific group counter. Enter the necessary data.

  3. Use the menu bar sequence Program ® Execute.

    4. The dialog box Select operation appears.

  4. Select all the operations that are to be included in the cost analysis. Then press Copy selection.

If you want to cost all the operations displayed, you can simply choose Copy all without selecting them.

While the system calculates the costs, it may also issue system message with information about the orders. You can simply ignore these messages as they are not relevant to maintenance task list costing. The messages are only issued because the system simulates a pseudo-order in the background when costing the task list in order to be able to perform the costing function.

The system produces a list of all the maintenance task lists and operations corresponding to the selection criteria you have defined and displays the costing result.

The presentation depends on the basic cost report. If you require another presentation, choose one by using the menu bar sequence Goto ® Other report. The reports displayed depend on the options set centrally in the CO component.
  1. You can call up further information from the list by using any of the available menu bar sequences.
