 Valuation

Use

You can activate the valuation for WCM-relevant orders so that the maintenance workers can decided themselves, whether safety measures must be implemented.

For the valuation you must define explicitly for each application whether it is necessary.

If you work with work permits , you must not activate valuation.

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Work Clearance Management you have defined the following:

You have activated the valuation in the application profile for the planning plant.

You have defined which applications in the WCM-relevant order must be valuated for the planning plant.

Features

If the valuation is activated and the applications are defined, then every WCM-relevant order must be valuated, that is, you must specify during the processing of a WCM-relevant order whether or not it is necessary for each application.

As soon as at least one application is valuated, the order is solely WCM relevant.

During the valuation the system checks whether you are authorized to valuate the application. It also documents who performs the valuation at what time.

You can change a valuation until " Release for execution " (status EXEC – Released for execution ) is issued.

As soon as you have valuated all the applications, the system sets the status VAL ( Valuated ) in the WCM-relevant order.

The valuation is the basis of the “Released for execution”, that is, the applications valuated with Yes are mandatory.

Activities

Activate work clearance management for the order.

The order is now WCM-relevant and the Valuation pushbutton is displayed.

Choose Valuation.

This takes you to the dialog box with the applications to be valuated.

When you have valuated all the applications, the system sets the status VAL ( Valuated )in the WCM-relevant order:

No application required

The Release for execution pushbutton appears in the order and you can set the status EXEC ( Released for execution ).

At least one application required

Standard model

A work clearance application must be assigned to the WCM-relevant order, and this work clearance application must have the approval status defined in Customizing. Only then does the Release for execution pushbutton appear in the WCM-relevant order and you can set the status EXEC ( Released for execution ).

Enhanced model

A work approval with the applications that were valuated withYesmust be assigned to the WCM-relevant order. The work approval must have the approval status defined in Customizing. Only then does the Release for execution pushbutton appear in the WCM-relevant order and you can set the status EXEC (Released for execution).

Perform the work on site.

Set the status WOCO (Work Completed) for the WCM-relevant order.

The following figure illustrates the procedure described above and which statuses are set:
