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.

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

orders and applications

 

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.

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.

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.

BB

DD

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

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.

SAP AG 2003

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.

SAP AG 2003

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.

The conflict check  is based on the conflict rules.

Conflict rules apply to tagging and untagging.

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.

Protected Areas

Operational WCDs from which it is possible to change the

operational status of a technical object (after operational

protection has been set).

The protected area includes all Operational WCDs that are

directly linked as a result of superior work clearance

applications.

 

A technical object can be switched within the protected area, but outside the protected area a technical

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.

TEST

 

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.

The following features are cross-planning plant:

Operational group

Operational condition

Operational type

The following features are dependent on the planning plant:

Combination of operational group, condition, and type

Conflict rules

 

The operational cycle may be formed in various different ways:

Tagging cycle with temporary untagging phase

Test cycle

Tagging cycle without temporary untagging phase

It is possible to ignore the following statuses:

Starting status

- "Tag" (BTG)

- "Untag temporarily" (BTUG)

- "Untag" (BUG)

Print status

- "Tag printed" (PTAG)

- "Test tag printed" (PTST)

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.
