A personnel number is a unique identifier for an employee in the SAP system. A personnel number can be directly assigned to the following objects:

C . Work center. A work center is a location where maintenance activities are performed. A work center can have one or more personnel numbers assigned to it, which represent the employees who work at that location.The personnel numbers can be used for capacity planning, scheduling, and confirmation of maintenance orders1.

D . Business partner. A business partner is a person or an organization that has a business relationship with the company. A business partner can have one or more roles, such as customer, vendor, or contact person.A personnel number can be assigned to a business partner role, which allows the system to identify the employee who is responsible for the business partner or who acts as a contact person for the business partner2.

A personnel number cannot be directly assigned to the following objects:

A . Planner group. A planner group is a group of employees who are responsible for planning and processing maintenance orders. A planner group is assigned to a maintenance order header, but not to a personnel number.A planner group can have one or more work centers assigned to it, which in turn can have personnel numbers assigned to them3.

B . Maintenance plan. A maintenance plan is a document that defines the frequency and scope of preventive maintenance activities for technical objects. A maintenance plan is assigned to a maintenance item, which contains the technical object and the task list for the maintenance activities.A maintenance plan does not have a direct assignment to a personnel number, but it can have a planner group assigned to it, which can have work centers and personnel numbers assigned to it.Reference:1:Work Center2:Business Partner3:Planner Group: [Maintenance Plan]

The Preparation and Scheduling phase within phase-based maintenance is the phase where the maintenance planner divides the maintenance effort into manageable groups, levels out the workload over several weeks, determines the concrete time period for the requested maintenance work, and checks the availability of all the resources, spare parts and services needed1.

Option B (The order moves to the Preparation phase once it is approved and released) is correct, because the approval and release of the order is the last step of the previous phase (Approval phase)2. Once the order is approved and released, it is ready for preparation and scheduling.

Option D (The configuration of the order type decides whether you use Resource Scheduling or not) is also correct, because the order type determines whether the order is relevant for resource scheduling or not2.Resource scheduling is an optional step in the Preparation and Scheduling phase, where the planner can assign and dispatch the orders and operations to the technicians using the Resource Scheduling apps2.

Option A (If you use the Resource Scheduling apps, you always dispatch orders and operations) is incorrect, because the Resource Scheduling apps allow the planner to either dispatch or assign the orders and operations2.Dispatching means that the planner assigns a specific technician and a specific time slot for the order or operation, while assigning means that the planner assigns only a technician or a team, but not a specific time slot2.

Option C (Maintenance Planning Buckets give you a list of non-approved notifications) is also incorrect, because the Maintenance Planning Buckets app gives the planner a list of approved and released orders that are ready for preparation and scheduling2.The non-approved notifications are handled in the previous phase (Screening phase)2.

Maintenance Process Phases

After a maintenance order is technically completed, the responsible person can perform the following operations1:

Lock or unlock the order: This prevents or allows further changes to the order data, such as actual costs, settlement rule, or confirmation data.

Change the settlement rule: This allows the responsible person to adjust the distribution of costs to the relevant receivers, such as cost centers, assets, or orders.

Post goods movements: This allows the responsible person to record the consumption or return of materials that were used for the maintenance work.

Enter measurement documents: This allows the responsible person to record the measurement readings of the technical objects that were maintained.

The responsible person cannot perform the following operations after a maintenance order is technically completed1:

Update the estimated costs: This is only possible before the order is released or during the execution phase.

Change the planned costs: This is only possible before the order is released or during the execution phase.

Change the order type: This is only possible before the order is released.

Change the order status: This is only possible before the order is technically completed or after it is reversed.

Therefore, the correct answers are A and C.Reference:1: Maintenance Order Types | SAP Help Portal

The action log is a function that allows you to view the changes that were made to fields during the processing of an order or a piece of equipment. The action log shows you the date, time, user, sub-object, field name, old value, and new value of each change. To enable entries in the action log of a piece of equipment, you need to activate the change documents for the equipment category. The equipment category is a classification of equipment that determines the data that can be maintained for the equipment. The change documents are records of the changes that are made to the data of the equipment. You can activate the change documents for the equipment category in the Customizing for Technical Objects under Equipment Define Equipment Categories . You do not need to define history related fields in the usage period customizing, as this is only relevant for the equipment history. The equipment history is a function that allows you to view the usage periods of the equipment, such as the installation, removal, or transfer dates. The history related fields are fields that are relevant for the equipment history, such as the functional location, the maintenance plant, or the cost center. You can define the history related fields in the Customizing for Technical Objects under Equipment Define History-Related Fields for Usage Periods . You do not need to define or activate the change documents for the equipment reference category, as this is only relevant for the equipment reference. The equipment reference is a function that allows you to link a piece of equipment to another object, such as a material, a serial number, or a document. The equipment reference category is a classification of equipment references that determines the data that can be maintained for the equipment reference. You can define the equipment reference category in the Customizing for Technical Objects under Equipment Define Equipment Reference Categories . You can activate the change documents for the equipment reference category in the Customizing for Technical Objects under Equipment Define Change Documents for Equipment Reference Categories .Reference:

The Report and Repair Malfunction SAPUI5 app is a Fiori app that allows the technician to easily report that a technical object has a malfunction, plan the required repair work, as well as document and confirm the maintenance work when it's done1. With this app, the technician can perform the following activities:

C . Complete and Close Report. This is true because the technician can provide information about the malfunction and the job, confirm the job, and close the malfunction report.The technician can also attach pictures or descriptions of the damage, as well as a URL to provide further information about the technical object or the damage1.

D . Release and Start Work. This is true because the technician can release the malfunction report and start working on the job assigned to them.The technician can also view the details of the technical object, the history of recent repair work, the required spare parts, and the work centers involved1.

The technician cannot perform the following activities with this app:

A . Schedule and Dispatch. This is false because these activities are performed by the planner or the dispatcher, not the technician.The planner or the dispatcher can use the Resource Scheduling app to schedule and dispatch the maintenance orders and operations2.

B . Release and Print. This is false because the technician can only release the malfunction report, not print it.The technician can use the Repair Malfunctions - My Job List app to view the list of all work items assigned to them and their current status, but not to print them1.Reference:1:Report and Repair Malfunction2:Resource Scheduling

Non-stock materials are materials that are not kept in stock, but are procured externally as required1. They can be maintained in the material master as service products (product type SERV). You can add non-stock materials to an operation or suboperation as a component.The system creates a purchase requisition and a purchase order in the same way as for non-stock materials that you procure externally1.

Among the given options, the following are possible for non-stock materials in a released maintenance order:

A purchase requisition can be created automatically as soon as the order is saved.This is the default behavior for non-stock materials, unless you change the configuration settings2.

The maintenance order can be set to TECO (technically completed) before the invoice is created.This is possible if you use the compatibility mode for external procurement, which allows you to technically complete the order even if there are open purchase requisitions or purchase orders2.

A goods receipt can be posted after the maintenance order is technically completed.This is possible if you use the enhanced mode for external procurement, which allows you to post goods receipts for non-stock materials after the order is technically completed2.

The following options are not possible for non-stock materials in a released maintenance order:

A purchase order is created automatically as soon as the order is saved.This is not possible, as the purchase order requires manual processing and approval after the purchase requisition is created2.

A purchase requisition will ALWAYS be created as soon as the order is saved.This is not always true, as you can change the configuration settings to create the purchase requisition manually or at a later point in time2.

Therefore, the correct answers are A, B, and C.Reference:1: What's New in SAP S/4HANA 2021 - SAP Online Help2: How to Configure SAP S/4HANA Asset Maintenance Subcontracting - SAP PRESS

To set up Inspection Checklist processing, you need to customize the following settings:

Maintain settings at plant level for usage decisions. This is required to define the default values for the usage decision codes and the follow-up actions for the inspection lots.You can do this by using the customizing activity 'Default Setting at Plant Level' under 'Quality ManagementQuality InspectionInspection Lot CompletionMaintain Default Values for Usage Decisions'1.

Assign an Inspection Type to a Maintenance Order Type and a Planning Plant. This is required to enable the creation of inspection lots for the maintenance orders.You can do this by using the customizing activity 'Assign Inspection Type to Maintenance Order Type' under 'Plant Maintenance and Customer ServiceMaintenance and Service ProcessingMaintenance and Service OrdersFunctions and Settings for Order TypesAssign Inspection Type to Maintenance Order Type'2.

You do not need to create a control key which expects inspection characteristic assignments or assign an Inspection Type to a Maintenance Order Type only. These are not relevant settings for the Inspection Checklist processing.
