Codes ensure that issues can be entered in a standardized way and therefore be evaluated automatically. In Plant Maintenance, codes describe damage and malfunctions, the causes of the damage as well as its maintenance and repair, all of which is entered as technical findings in the plant maintenance history.

You can use this function to copy long texts and documents attached to codes, which you assign during notification processing, to the corresponding maintenance notifications. If the damage codes, cause codes, activity codes, and task codes you selected have long texts or documents stored in Customizing, you can copy them to the notification. The system copies the long text of the code to the Long Text column and stores any documents assigned to the code on the Documents tab page. The documents that are copied with the code are always assigned to the notification on header level.
