Activating Work Clearance Management for Orders
Use
In order to ensure that work safety measures are performed for maintenance work tasks, you must activate Work Clearance Management for maintenance orders. These
orders are marked as WCM-relevant orders.Prerequisites
In Customizing for Work Clearance Management you have configured Work Clearance Management for the planning plant of the order.
Features
There are two ways to activate Work Clearance Management:
approvals that you assign to the maintenance order and have configured in Customizing such that Work Clearance Management is activated
As approvals can also be automatically assigned to a maintenance order using technical objects, Work Clearance Management can also be activated automatically:
You have assigned an approval to a technical object. This is set up in Customizing such that it activates Work Clearance Management. In addition, you have defined that this approval in the technical object is copied to the maintenance order as default value.
If you create a maintenance order for this technical object, the approval of the technical object is automatically copied as default value and thereby work clearance management in the maintenance order is automatically activated.
Within the
valuation it also holds that a partially performed valuation prohibits a cancellation of the activity.Activities
If you have activated Work Clearance Management, the pushbutton WC-Application appears in the application toolbar of the
standard model or the pushbutton Work Approval appears in the enhanced model.
If you have also activated the valuation, you must have performed the valuation before the pushbutton appears.
