Need for WCM
Maintenance crews are working in a hazardous
environment (for example, high voltage, radiationexposure)
Maintenance measures need to be performed while
systems are operational
Operation of a technical system must not be affected
under any circumstances
There are work-related illnesses, which require special
health and safety measures
Inspections, repairs, or maintenance work for a technical object may only be carried out when measures
to ensure work safety have been implemented. These safety measures include, for example,lockout/tagout, fire protection, radiation protection.
Work Clearance Management (PM-WCM) enables you to control and monitor these activities. This
means you are able to ensure safe and secure working conditions for maintenance employees, observe
environmental regulations, and guarantee technical system availability.

Basic Elements
Functional locations describe the structure of a technical system.
Individual components are described as equipment.
Object links represent connections between different technical systems.
The hierarchy of functional locations and equipment is used to structure technical assets.
Classification (classes and their characteristics) describes technical data for all kinds of objects.

You use the structure indicator to help you to identify a functional location. The structure indicator
includes two entry fields:
Edit mask
Hierarchy levels
You use the edit mask to control which marks are used for indicators (letters, numbers, or both). It also
controls how these indicators are grouped and how they are separated. The field hierarchy levels
defines where in the indicator each level ends, and how many hierarchy levels the structure can have in
total.
The indicator for a functional location can be up to 40 characters long (= maximum length of the the
edit mask).

Orders are linked to WCM at order header level.
For WCM-relevant orders you cannot perform the maintenance tasks until you have released them
(status "Released for Execution" (EXEC)). Setting the tasks to "released" depends on the WCM
architecture and whether the valuation was activated.
Connecting orders to WCM is not absolutely necessary. Work clearance management enables you to
carry out safety measures without an order. For example, this is the case if every change within the
asset should or must be documented but the order is not needed for planning or to collect costs.

Umbrella WCM object for

The work approval is a WCM object for controlling communication between maintenance orders and
applications. The work approval requires safety measures designed to ensure that work on a technicalsystem is carried out in a hazard-free environment. As a superior WCM object, the work approval may
include a work clearance application with additional applications (for example, boiler inspection
certificate).
Work approval is only used in the enhanced model, and represents the central safety certificate.
On the one hand, work approvals are assigned to orders where tehy control the status "Released for
execution". On the other hand, work approvals are assigned to applications that they control and check.

Observe the following assignment rules:
You can assign a work approval to several different orders. Only one work approval may be assigned
to each order. (Assignment rule R3)
An application may be assigned to several work approvals (and vice versa). (Assignment rule R4)
A work approval can only be assigned to one application per application type – this means, for
example, that you cannot assign several work clearance applications to a work approval. (Assignment

The work clearance application represents the safety certificate for lockout/tagout.
In the enhanced model, you use a work clearance application to control communication between work
approvals and Operational WCDs.
In the standard model, you use a work clearance application to control communication between orders
and Operational WCDs. Direct assignment to orders enables the work clearance application to control
the issuing of the status "Released for execution" in the order through the approval status.

Observe the following assignment rules:
Enhanced model
- An application may be assigned to several work approvals (and vice versa). (Assignment rule R4)
- A work approval can only be assigned to one application per application type – this means, for
example, that you cannot assign several work clearance applications to a work approval.
(Assignment rule R5)
- A work clearance application may be assigned to several Operational WCDs (and vice versa).
(Assignment rule R2)
Standard model
- You can assign a work clearance application to several different orders. Only one order can be
assigned to each work clearance application. (Assignment rule R1)
- A work clearance application may be assigned to several Operational WCDs (and vice versa).

Additional applications
Stipulate whether you want to document and track different safety measures separately in your system.
If this is the case, you need additional applications.
As well as a work clearance application that displays the safety certificate especially for the
lockout/tagout, it can also be necessary to take additional safety measures into consideration, for
example, radiation protection, fire protection, or boiler protection. These safety measures are
represented in the additional applications.
The additional applications can only be used in the enhanced model of Work Clearance Management.
They are combined with the work clearance applications under the work approval.
The additional applications are industry-specific and necessary if additional safety measures must be
managed as independent WCM objects in the system. They are programmed using the ABAP
workbench.

Work Clearance Document
The work clearance document contains a detailed description of lockout/tagout.
The work clearance document is the only WCM object that also has items apart from the header data.
As items, specify all the technical objects that are to be processed in connection with a lockout/tagout.
The WCD may include equipment, functional locations, technical objects, that are not managed in the
R/3 structure, and comments.
The work clearance document has a header like every WCM object. It also has the following screens:
Maintenance screen
Switching screen (not for WCD templates)

There are two types of WCD:
WCD template
The WCD template is not used itself to perform lockout/tagout. You cannot switch or assign the
WCD template. The WCD template serves only as a standard template. This means that you do not
always have to create a new WCD for complex technical system structures.
The WCD template enables you to create a template library.
A library of WCD templates makes planning a lot simpler for lockout/tagout, improving safety.
The advantage of creating a WCD template is that these work clearance documents are higher
quality. When you copy from another operational WCD, particular attention is needed with regard to
altered untagging conditions.
Operational WCD
You use the Operational WCD to perform lockout/tagout - you can switch and assign the Operational
WCD.

You can use any work clearance document as a template for creating another work clearance document.
You have the option of connecting any external systems for processing, visualizing, and maintaining
work clearance documents. The most common example is connecting to a graphic planning system,
with which you can process items for work clearance documents.
You can compare a work clearance document with your template or with other work clearance
documents. The system then compares only the items of the work clearance documents to be compared.
To track changes in the template or adapt one work clearance document to another, you can copy items
in the clipboard.
You can copy items from other work clearance documents to the clipboard.

WCM approvals belong to the approvals for Plant Maintenance.
The approvals are assigned to WCM objects at header level. It is possible to assign an approval to
several WCM objects. This is not recommended.
Processing depends on authorization.
All activities are recorded.

Basic Functions
Before starting the approval process
Assignment to a WCM object Deleting the assignment
During the approval process
Granting approval
Withdrawing approval
The approval process begins when you set the status "Prepared" (PREP) in the WCM object. This
means that you can now grant or revoke approvals, but you can no longer assign or delete approvals to aWCM object.
You always assign an approval at the header level of the WCM object. This means you approve the
entire WCM object and not individual items.
You can assign more than one approval to a WCM object. However, each approval may only be used
once for each WCM object. You can also assign an approval to more than one WCM object; however,
this is not recommended for reasons of clarity.

A superior approval has notbeen granted
Dependent approvals from
assigned WCM objectshave not been granted
Required assignments are not
in place
The required system or user
status is not active
Your goal is:
Approval A should be granted before approval B:
Assign approval A to hierarchy level 1, and approval B to hierarchy level 2. This means that
approvals cannot be granted at superior hierarchy levels (for example, 2) until they have been granted
at lower hierarchy levels (for example, 1).
Approval may only be granted if an Operational WCD has been assigned:
Activate the assignment function for the work clearance application. Ensure that there is a
dependence with subordinate WCM objects (Operational WCDs).
Approval for an Operational WCD can only be granted when the Operational WCD is tagged:
Assign the system status Tagged (ETG) to the approval. This means the person responsible can only
issue approval when the Operational WCD is tagged.

The approval process transports information at all levels of the WCM object.
Each level can trigger or block the approval process.
Within an approval category you can specify that approval will be granted for a WCM object dependent
on whether an approval has already been granted to an assigned WCM object.
The dependency may be in the direction of a superior WCM object, a subordinate WCM object, or
neutral.
The direction defines from which direction approvals should be considered – from superior (UP) or
from subordinate (DN) WCM objects.
For approvals in an approval category, if a dependency from a superior WCM object to a subordinate
WCM object has been defined (and the opposite is also true), these dependencies will be completely
ignored. Missing approval – Approval granted

Work Approval
This process is composed of the orderly tagging and later untagging of technical objects, so that
maintenance tasks and tests can be performed safely at the technical objects.
The operational processing of lockout/tagout is described with the help of the operational cycle.
For a lockout/tagout that is assigned to locations, shop papers are required on site for the switching.
This involves an operational list, that is a list of the individual switching actions to be performed, and
so-called tags and test tags. Operational lists and tags and test tags can be printed according to the
layout details of the plant concerned.
Checks and simulations help you to ensure that lockout/tagout is safe and can be processed without any
conflicts.

Operational Condition
Operational conditions give a detailed description of
conditions or parameters for technical objects (for
example, Open, Closed ):
Tagging condition = operational condition for tagging
Untagging condition = operational condition for (temporary)
untagging
OpenOpen
ClosedClosed
For each operational condition you can define whether it is valid for tagging, (temporary) untagging, or
for both.
You can group operational conditions logically:
An operational group is a logical grouping of operational conditions designed to minimize conflict
rules.
An operational class is a logical grouping of operational conditions based on the technical
characteristics of technical objects.

Operational Types
Operational types allow use of different tags for the same
operational condition (for example, red/yellow/white tags)
Tagging type = operational type for tagging
Untagging type = operational type for (temporary)
untagging
Operational types help you to further define same operational conditions.
The choice of conflict rules influences the use of the operational type.

Operational Phase
Phase in the operational cycle during which an
Operational WCD item goes through several statuses in
a certain order.
Condition changes are recorded. There are three
operational phases:
Tagging phase
Temporary untagging phase
Untagging phase
The first status in the operational phase gives notices of an activity - a change of operational
condition/type:
Tag (BTG)
Untag temporarily (BTUG)
Untag (BUG)
An operational tag is printed, the status following confirms the print:
Tag printed (PTAG)
Test tag printed (PTST)
The last status confirms that the activity has been performed on location:
Tagged (ETG)
Temporarily untagged (ETUG)
Untagged (EUG)

The operational cycle is a cycle consisting a maximum of three operational phases.
The operational cycle may be formed in various different ways:
Tagging cycle with temporary untagging phase
Test cycle
Tagging cycle without temporary untagging phase
In each operational cycle, the Operational WCD items go through several statuses in a particular order:
Tagging phase = tag (BTG), tag printed (PTAG), tagged (ETG)
Temporary untagging = untag temporarily (BTUG), test tag printed (PTST), temporarily untagged
(ETUG)
Untagging phase = untag (BUG), untagged (EUG)

General Checks
For each operational step, the system checks if
The user has authorization
Tagging/untagging is blocked by an approval
Tagging/untagging is blocked by operational protection
This is a valid operational step
Checks help you to ensure that lockout/tagout is safe and that it avoids conflicts. Some checks are
optional, some compulsory.
You can deactivate optional checks in Customizing.

Check: Reference Object
Prerequisite
When the operational process begins, a reference object log
is kept in the system until the Operational WCD is completed.
Check
For each technical object to be tagged/untagged, the system
checks if this object is already a reference object in a
processed Operational WCD. Every agreement is displayed.
Optional check to see if the object to be tagged/untagged is not already a reference object in an active
lockout/tagout situation.
The check is for information purposes only and does not affect tagging/untagging.
You can deactivate the check.

Check: Time Frame
Prerequisite
At the start of a new operational phase, the system logs the
chosen operational condition/type. This entry is only deleted
once the operational condition/type is confirmed.
Check
The system checks if there are existing entries for technical
objects to be tagged/untagged. A technical object cannot
have different operational conditions.
Optional check whether a technical object (that should be tagged/untagged and thereby obtain a new
operational condition/type) does not already have another operational condition/type within anoperational group not yet confirmed in the system.
You cannot ignore the check.
You can alter or deactivate the check.

Check: Completeness and Correctness
Prerequisite
Unlike the tagging condition/type, the untagging
condition/type must first be maintained for (temporary)
untagging.
Check
The system checks at the start of the (temporary) untagging
phase if the untagging condition/type has been maintained.
Compulsory check
If the required untagging condition/type has been maintained for a technical object. At the latest, youmust maintain this by the time of (temporary) untagging.
You cannot ignore the check.

Check: Test Cycle
Prerequisite
All work clearance applications assigned are either complete,
or they permit a test cycle - this means a test cycle is allowed
for the Operational WCD.
The system checks if a test cycle is possible for the
Operational WCD.
Compulsory check
The system checks if a test cycle is permitted for the Operational WCD.
You cannot ignore the check. Special authorization is required to do that.

Check: Untagging
Prerequisite
All work clearance applications assigned are complete - this
means the Operational WCD is untaggable.
Check
The system checks if the Operational WCD is untaggable.
Compulsory check
The system checks if the Operational WCD can be untagged.
You cannot ignore the check. Special authorization is required to do that.

SAP AG 2003
Check: Conflict
Prerequisite
A conflict record is written at the start of a new tagging
phase. You can only delete this entry when the item is
(temporarily) untagged.
Check
At the beginning of an operational phase, the desired
operational condition/type for a technical object is checked
against all conflict records. This check is based on general or
user-defined conflict rules.
Compulsory check
If required operational conditions/types for a technical object can be switched within an operationalgroup.
In case of conflict, you can
Cancel switching and deal with the conflict or
Ignore the conflict and go ahead with the switching. Special authorization is required to do that.
In the case of a conflict that you have ignored, the system assigns the status conflict (CONF) to the
technical object. The system always assumes that the switch was performed. For example: the
operational condition/type A generates conflicts. If you ignore these conflicts, then A is the new
operational condition/type for the system.
If the technical object for which the conflict occurred is untagged during the switching, then the conflictis automatically withdrawn.

rules
The conflict check is based on the conflict rules.

You can decide whether to use the general or user-defined conflict rules. The decision is taken at
company level for each planning plant.
The conflict rules only apply within an operational group.

General Conflict Rules
If the user does not define conflict rules, the system compares
the current and target operational types.
The result is either N = Note (Same)
E = Error message (Different)
Consequences
The operational type cannot be overwritten
Operational conditions have no impact on the conflict check
You cannot define asymmetric conflict rules
For operational group E (= electrical) we have two different operational conditions:
(ON/OFF)
Two different operational types are required for these operational conditions:
(1, 2)

SAP AG 2003
User-Defined Conflict Rules
If the user defines conflict rules, the system compares the
current and target operational conditions/types.
The result is either N = Note
W = Warning
E = Error
Consequences
You can overwrite the operational type
Operational conditions influence the conflict check
You are able to define asymmetric conflict rules
The system interprets missing conflict rules as errors
For operational group E (= electrical) we have two different operational conditions:
(ON/OFF)
There are three different operational types for these operational conditions:
(RED, YELLOW, WHITE)
2 x 3 = 6 possible combinations from operational condition/type
When performing conflict checks, the system will compare current operational condition/type and
target operational condition/type. In this case, that means a possible 6 x 6 = 36 conflict rules.

Operational Protection
This ensures that the operational condition of a technical
object in an Operational WCD may only be changed from
specific Operational WCDs.
Once operational protection has been set, you can only change
operational condition from Operational WCDs that are directly
linked as a result of superior work clearance applications (=
protected areas).
The operational protection only applies within an operational
group.
Operational protection enables you, for example, to shield the change in Operational condition of an
Operational WCD item against other Operational WCDs for test purposes.
Usage defines if an Operational WCD is able to set operational protection.
The operational protection always applies to the technical object and the operational group assigned to
it.

object cannot be switched.
The protected area is displayed on the switching screen.

Orders are linked to WCM at order header level.
For WCM-relevant orders you cannot perform the maintenance tasks until you have released them
(status "Released for Execution" (EXEC)). Setting the tasks to "released" depends on the WCM
architecture and whether the valuation was activated.
Connecting orders to WCM is not absolutely necessary. Work clearance management enables you to
carry out safety measures without an order. For example, this is the case if every change within the
asset should or must be documented but the order is not needed for planning or to collect costs.

You must activate WCM for orders to ensure that safety measures are performed for maintenance tasks.
These orders are marked as WCM-relevant orders.
There are two options for activating WCM:
Through approvals, which you assign to the maintenance order and have configured in Customizing
such that WCM is activated
Through operations in maintenance orders with the control key WCM
A partially completed valuation prohibits you from withdrawing the activation.

You can activate the valuation for WCM-relevant orders so that the maintenance employees can decide
themselves whether safety measures are required.
For the valuation you must define explicitly for each application whether or not it is required.
When the valuation is activated and the applications are determined, each WCM-relevant order must be
valuated, that is, when you are processing an order you must specify for each application whether or not
it is required.
As soon as at least one application is valuated, the order immediately becomes relevant for WCM.
For the valuation, the system checks if you are authorized to valuate the application. It also documents
who makes the valuation at what time.
You can change a valuation until it is "put in process" (status "Released for execution" (EXEC)). The
valuation is based on the order being put in process, that is, applications marked with yes are requiredurgently.
As soon as you have valuated all the applications, the system sets the "Valuated" (VAL) status in the
order.

The work clearance application requires a test cycle.
If work clearance applications have the status Test cycle (TENT), you can carry out a test cycle for
Operational WCDs that are assigned to the applications.
If work clearance applications have the status Complete (CLSD), you can carry out untagging for
Operational WCDs that are assigned to the applications.
You may perform a test cycle for an Operational WCD if all work clearance applications assigned have
the status Test cycle (TENT) or Completed (CLSD).
The status Test cycle (TEST) for the Operational WCD is set internally.

Composite role
Each of the composite roles contains a group of transactions required for the function in an individual
menu.
Each composite role is composed of a number of single roles. Each single role is composed of a group
of thematically-related transactions that are compiled into single roles in the menu. The authorizations
for the individual transactions can also be stored in the single roles.
One or more composite roles are assigned to an SAP user. The composite roles assigned to a user form
the user menu.
Example: Harry Meyers works as a maintenance engineer at IDES AG. His role as employee means
that he needs to access general functions, for example, creating a leave request. In his role as
maintenance engineer he manges technical objects in Plant Maintenance. The composite roles Employee
and Maintenance engineer are assigned to his SAP user profile and his user menu is then available.
