You need to create a new functional location. Which actions can you perform with the SAP Fiori app
"Create Technical Object"? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question
A C D
Explanation:
The SAP Fiori app “Create Technical Object” allows you to create a new functional location and
perform the following actions:
Edit classification data and characteristics. You can assign a class to the functional location and enter
values for the characteristics of the class.
This helps you to categorize and search for functional
locations based on their attributes1
Assign documents. You can attach documents to the functional location, such as drawings, manuals,
or certificates.
This helps you to provide additional information and documentation for the functional
location1
Assign a subordinate piece of equipment. You can assign an existing piece of equipment as a
subordinate object to the functional location.
This helps you to establish a hierarchical structure of
technical objects and show the relationship between them1
The SAP Fiori app “Create Technical Object” does not allow you to perform the following actions:
Create a task list for functional location. You cannot create a task list for the functional location using
this app.
You need to use a different app, such as “Manage Task Lists”, to create and maintain task
lists for technical objects2
Change a reference location. You cannot change the reference location of the functional location
using this app.
You need to use a different app, such as “Change Functional Location”, to modify the
reference location of an existing functional location3

You want to schedule a performance-based maintenance plan. Which parameters are mandatory?
Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question
B C
Explanation:
To schedule a performance-based maintenance plan, you need to specify the start counter reading
and the estimated annual performance of the equipment or functional location. The start counter
reading is the initial value of the counter assigned to the maintenance plan. The estimated annual
performance is the expected value of the counter for one year. These parameters are used to
calculate the maintenance cycle and the due date for the maintenance plan. The scheduling period
and the counter overflow reading are optional
You settle a refurbishment order with the batches (valuation types) having price control standard
price. What is the effect? Note. There are 2 correct answers to this question.
A C
Explanation:
When you settle a refurbishment order with the batches (valuation types) having price control
standard price, the following effects occur:
The effective costs are posted as a credit memo to a price difference account. This means that the
difference between the actual costs of the refurbishment and the standard price of the batch is
recorded as a variance in the accounting document.
This ensures that the inventory value of the
batch is not affected by the refurbishment costs1
The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is posted with the value of the standard price. This
means that the inventory value of the batch is updated with the predefined price that is maintained
in the material master.
This ensures that the inventory value of the batch is consistent and stable1
The other options are incorrect because:
The effective costs are not posted to the respective batch (valuation type).
The batch valuation is
based on the standard price, not the actual costs of the refurbishment1
The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is not posted with the value of the moving average
price.
The moving average price is only used for batches with price control moving average price, not
standard price1

Which functionalities are available in the SAP Service and Asset Manager (SAP Asset Manager) for a
maintenance worker? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question
A C
Explanation:
The SAP Service and Asset Manager application enables maintenance workers to perform various
tasks related to asset management, such as:
Confirm time sheets: Maintenance workers can record the time spent on work orders and
operations, and submit them for approval. They can also view the status of their time confirmations
and edit or delete them if needed.
This functionality helps to track the labor costs and efficiency of
the maintenance work1
.
Attach documents: Maintenance workers can attach documents, such as photos, videos, audio files,
or PDFs, to work orders, notifications, or equipment.
This functionality helps to provide additional
information or evidence for the maintenance work2
.
Display maps: Maintenance workers can view the location of assets, work orders, or notifications on
a map. They can also use the map to navigate to the destination, filter the map items, or switch
between different map layers.
This functionality helps to improve the spatial awareness and planning
of the maintenance work3
.
Display and maintain technical objects: Maintenance workers can view the details of technical
objects, such as equipment, functional locations, or linear assets, and perform actions on them, such
as creating notifications, work orders, or measurements. They can also edit the technical object data,
such as the status, serial number, or manufacturer. This functionality helps to manage the lifecycle
and performance of the assets.
The functionalities that are not available in the SAP Service and Asset Manager application for a
maintenance worker are:
Schedule resources: This functionality is available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management
application, which is a web-based application that supports the planning and scheduling of
maintenance work. Maintenance planners and schedulers can use this application to assign
resources, such as technicians, tools, or materials, to work orders and operations, and optimize the
resource utilization and availability.
Change task list: This functionality is also available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management
application, which allows maintenance planners and engineers to create and modify task lists, such
as general task lists, equipment task lists, or functional location task lists. Task lists are used to define
the sequence of operations and activities for recurring maintenance work.
Change BOM: This functionality is also available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management application,
which allows maintenance engineers and technicians to create and change bills of materials (BOMs)
for technical objects, such as equipment or functional locations. BOMs are used to list the
components and materials that are required for the maintenance work.
Create a work order on the ESRI map: This functionality is not available in the SAP Service and Asset
Manager application, which only supports viewing the existing work orders on the map. To create a
work order on the map, the maintenance worker would need to use the SAP Work Manager
application, which is another mobile application that integrates with the ESRI ArcGIS platform. The
SAP Work Manager application allows the maintenance worker to create a work order by tapping on
a map location, and assign the work order to a technician or a crew.

What are mandatory characteristics of orders with Operation Account Assignment (OAA)? Note:
There are 3 correct answers to this question
A B C
Explanation:
Orders with Operation Account Assignment (OAA) are a special type of PM/CS orders that allow the
detailed planning, capture and reporting of costs at the order operation level. The operations have
their own settlement rules enabling more accurate cost updating of multiple assets maintained using
a single PM/CS order. The mandatory characteristics of OAA orders are:
A technical object must be assigned to an order operation. This ensures that the operation is linked
to a specific asset and can be settled accordingly. The technical object can be an equipment, a
functional location, or a material.
Costs are stored only for the operation object. This means that the order header does not have any
costs associated with it. The costs are allocated to the operations based on the actual postings of
goods movements, confirmations, and invoices.
Purchase requisitions have the operation as account assignment. This means that the purchase
requisitions created from the order components are assigned to the operation instead of the order
header. This allows the tracking of costs at the operation level.
The characteristics that are not mandatory for OAA orders are:
Overall costs are dynamically summed up on the header level. This is an optional feature that can be
activated by using the business function LOG_EAM_SIMPLICITY_2. This allows the display of the total
costs of the order operations on the order header level.
The settlement rule is maintained on the header level. This is not a characteristic of OAA orders, but
rather a limitation. The settlement rule for OAA orders can only be maintained on the operation
level, not on the header level. This means that each operation has its own settlement rule and can be
settled to different receivers.

What are the prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment? Note: There are 3 correct answers to
this question
C D E
Explanation:
Serializing a piece of equipment means assigning a unique serial number to identify and track the
equipment throughout its lifecycle. The prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment are:
Assign a serial number profile to the equipment category. This defines the rules for creating and
managing serial numbers for the equipment, such as the number range, the check digit, and the
serial number usage. The serial number profile is assigned in the Customizing activity Define
Equipment Categories under Plant Maintenance and Customer Service -> Master Data in Plant
Maintenance and Customer Service -> Technical Objects -> Equipment -> Equipment Categories.
Assign a serial number profile to the related material master. This ensures that the material and the
equipment have the same serial number profile and that the serial number is automatically copied
from the material to the equipment. The serial number profile is assigned in the material master
data in the Plant Data/Stor. 1 view under Serial Number Profile.
Maintain a serial number for an existing equipment master. This can be done either manually or
automatically. Manually, you can enter the serial number in the equipment master data in the Serial
Data view under Serial Number. Automatically, you can link the equipment with a serialized material
and the serial number will be copied from the material to the equipment. This linking can be done
either with a goods movement or manually.
The options that are not prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment are:
Add a serialized material to the equipment serial data view. This is not a prerequisite, but rather a
possible way to link the equipment with a serialized material and copy the serial number from the
material to the equipment. However, this can only be done if the serial number profile is already
assigned to both the equipment category and the material master.
Assign a serial number profile to an additional business view for equipment category. This is not a
valid option, as the serial number profile is assigned to the equipment category itself, not to any
additional business view.

You want to set up a scenario for regular maintenance. The first event should take place after 1 year,
after that, it is a regular cycle of 6 months. Which parameter do you have to use to map this in the
system?
C
Explanation:
To set up a scenario for regular maintenance, the first event should take place after 1 year, and after
that, it is a regular cycle of 6 months, you have to use the maintenance package offset parameter to
map this in the system.
The maintenance package offset is used to define the time interval between
the start of the maintenance plan and the first call date of the maintenance package1
.
A
maintenance package is a set of data that defines the frequency and scope of the maintenance
tasks2
.
For example, if you want to create a maintenance plan with two maintenance packages, one for
annual inspection and one for semi-annual inspection, you can use the following settings:
Maintenance package 1: Cycle length = 12 months, Offset = 0 months, Scheduling indicator = Time-
based
Maintenance package 2: Cycle length = 6 months, Offset = 12 months, Scheduling indicator = Time-
based
This means that the first maintenance package will be called at the start of the maintenance plan,
and then every 12 months thereafter. The second maintenance package will be called after 12
months from the start of the maintenance plan, and then every 6 months thereafter.
The other parameters that are not relevant for this scenario are:
Package hierarchy: This is used to define the relationship between different maintenance packages
within a maintenance plan.
It allows you to create nested or parallel maintenance packages that are
dependent on each other3
.
Scheduling indicator: This is used to define the type of scheduling for the maintenance package, such
as time-based, performance-based, or condition-based4
.
Cycle modification factor: This is used to modify the cycle length of the maintenance package by a
certain percentage or factor5
.

During the implementation project you need to define the organizational units relevant for Plant
Maintenance. Which of the following objects can you directly assign to a maintenance plant? Note:
There are 2 correct answers to this question
A D
Explanation:
A maintenance plant is the organizational unit in which the technical objects to be maintained are
physically present. A maintenance plant can be directly assigned to the following objects:
A maintenance work center, which is a location where maintenance tasks are performed. A
maintenance work center can be a person, a group of persons, or a technical object, such as a
machine or a vehicle.
A maintenance work center is defined by its capacity, availability, and cost
rates1
A storage location, which is a place where spare parts and materials are stored within a plant. A
storage location can be a warehouse, a bin, or a shelf.
A storage location is defined by its address,
stock type, and valuation area2
The other options are incorrect because:
A maintenance planner group, which is a group of planners who are responsible for planning
maintenance activities in a maintenance planning plant. A maintenance planner group is not directly
assigned to a maintenance plant, but to a maintenance planning plant.
A maintenance planning
plant is the organizational unit in which maintenance requirements are planned3
An organizational unit, which is a generic term for any unit of an organization that performs a specific
function or task. An organizational unit can be a company code, a plant, a sales organization, a
purchasing organization, etc. An organizational unit is not directly assigned to a maintenance plant,
but to a higher-level organizational unit, such as a company code or a controlling area.

Which objects have been enhanced with linear data in maintenance processes? Note: There are 3
correct answers to this question
B C E
Explanation:
Linear data is used to describe the location and extent of linear assets, such as pipelines, roads, or
cables. Linear data can be stored in the master data of technical objects, such as functional locations
and equipment, as well as in the transactional data of maintenance processes, such as notifications,
orders, and confirmations. The objects that have been enhanced with linear data in maintenance
processes are:
Work order confirmation: You can record the processing status of a maintenance order by entering
linear data in the confirmation.
You can also use the linear data from the order operation or the
notification item as a default value1
Maintenance plan item: You can define inspections and maintenance tasks in linear assets by
creating and managing the maintenance items in maintenance plans with linear data.
You can also
use the linear data from the technical object or the task list as a default value2
Notification item: You can describe the condition of your linear asset or report a malfunction by
entering linear data in the notification item.
You can also use the linear data from the technical
object as a default value3

Which steps are available for the maintenance technician when using the Report Malfunction bile?
Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.
B C D
Explanation:
The Report Malfunction app allows the maintenance technician to perform the following steps when
reporting a malfunction of a technical object:
Display the current location of the technical object. The app shows the geographical location of the
technical object on a map, if the Geographical Enablement Framework is activated.
This helps the
technician to locate the technical object and plan the travel route1
Add a URL to provide further information. The app allows the technician to attach a URL to the
malfunction report, such as a link to a video or a website that shows the problem or the
solution.
This helps the technician to provide additional information and documentation for the
malfunction1
View details of the technical object by navigating to the Asset Viewer. The app allows the technician
to access the Asset Viewer app from the malfunction report, where they can view the technical
object details, such as the structure, documents, history, and measurements.
This helps the
technician to gather information about the technical object and its condition1
The Report Malfunction app does not allow the maintenance technician to perform the following
steps when reporting a malfunction of a technical object:
Select and print the maintenance order shop papers. The app does not provide the option to select
and print the maintenance order shop papers.
The technician can use a different app, such as
“Manage Maintenance Orders”, to print the shop papers2
Input estimated costs for repair malfunction. The app does not provide the option to input estimated
costs for repair malfunction.
The technician can use a different app, such as “Manage Maintenance
Orders”, to enter the planned costs for the maintenance order2

Which of the following is a prerequisite for external refurbishment?
D
Explanation:
External refurbishment is the process of sending defective or worn-out spare parts to an external
vendor for repair or replacement. To carry out this process, you need to create a maintenance order
with an external operation that has the subcontracting indicator activated. This indicator allows you
to create a purchase requisition and a purchase order for the external service. The external operation
also requires an external work center, a control key, and a material component with the valuation
type of the defective part. The order type for external refurbishment is not a prerequisite, but a
configuration option that can be used to differentiate the process from internal refurbishment. The
material group for externally refurbished materials is not relevant for the process, as the material
master data is not changed by the refurbishment. The assignment of an external work center to a
maintenance order operation is necessary, but not sufficient, for external refurbishment. You also
need to activate the subcontracting indicator in the external activity. Reference:

What is characteristic for a maintenance order with status REL- if you also consider the capabilities of
business functions? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.
A B E
Explanation:
A maintenance order with status REL means that the order is released and ready for execution. At
this stage, the following characteristics apply:
A . Goods receipts for external services can be entered. This is true because external services are
procured through purchase orders that are linked to the maintenance order. The service performer
can post service entry sheets to record the executed work and consumable materials.
These service
entry sheets can be approved and posted as goods receipts for external services1
.
B . The planner can change planned costs at the operation level. This is false because once the order
is released, the planned costs are frozen and cannot be changed by the planner.
The planner can only
change the estimated costs at the header level2
.
C . The planner can change estimated costs only at the header level. This is true, but it is not a
characteristic of a released order.
The planner can change the estimated costs at any time, even
before the order is released2
.
D . The controller can determine actual cost surcharges. This is true because the controller can use
the business function LOG_EAM_CI_7 to calculate and post actual cost surcharges for maintenance
orders.
This function can be used for orders with status REL or TECO3
.
E. The assignment of the notification to the maintenance order header cannot be deleted. This is
true because the notification is the source document for the maintenance order and provides the
reason for the order.
The notification can only be deleted if the order is deleted or set to status
CRTD. Reference: 1

Which of these are necessary steps of the Inspection Checklist process? Note: There are 2 correct
answers to this question
A C
Explanation:
The inspection checklist process is an end-to-end process from the creation of inspection plans to
results recording and follow-up actions in Plant Maintenance. The necessary steps of the inspection
checklist process are:
Generate object lists for the maintenance order, which contain the technical objects to be inspected.
Generate inspection checklists for the maintenance order, which contain the inspection lots based on
the inspection plans assigned to the technical objects.
Record the inspection results for the inspection characteristics in the inspection lots.
Record the usage decision for the inspection lots, which determines whether the technical objects
are accepted or rejected.
Therefore, option A (Generate Inspection Lots within the checklists view) and option C (Record the
usage decision for an Inspection Lot) are correct, while option B (Link PM task list with assigned
inspection point type to a maintenance item) and option D (Generate Inspection Lots assigned to
maintenance order headers) are not part of the inspection checklist process.
