Three apps are provided for processing a technical object: "Create Technical Object", "Change Technical Object", and "Display Technical Object". As a maintenance planner, you can create and change technical objects to efficiently manage and evaluate technical assets and maintenance objects and monitor the costs involved. You can specify general data, location data, organizational data, and structure data as well as edit classification data and characteristic values, and assign documents.
Key features:  If you have the business role Maintenance Planner, you can perform the following tasks: Create a master record for each functional location or piece of equipment.A functional location represents an area within a system or plant where an object can be installed. Functional locations are created in hierarchical structures and thus allow a functional or process-oriented structuring of your systems. Individual maintenance objects are represented by pieces of equipment that are installed at functional locations. The usage times of a piece of equipment at a functional location are documented over the course of time. Specify general data, location data, organizational data, and structure data.Assign classification information to the master records of equipment and functional locations.After having created characteristics and classes, this classification enables you to easily locate your objects and group them together for evaluations. Edit and view linear data if the technical object is a linear asset.Assign permits to specific technical objects for which certain regulations or conditions must be taken into account when using them or performing maintenance work.Serialize a piece of equipment by assigning a material number and serial number to it.This makes inventory management possible for the equipment. Choose a status profile and set one or several user statuses to further restrict the business transactions allowed by the various system statuses.Create master records for measuring points or counters that are located on the technical object and help you to document the condition of this technical object at a particular point in time.Create a notification or an order for the technical object.View the risks associated with the technical object together with the appropriate responses and safety measures.This feature is only available if you are working with an external risk management system, such as SAP BusinessObjects Risk Management. Display the technical object in the Asset Viewer.You can display the hierarchical structure of the object and navigate to subordinate objects, such as materials. In addition, you can open the usage list and view the history of the installation location of a piece of equipment which is installed in a technical object. The system records a usage period for each installation location, enabling you to track the complete installation history.   Assign real estate objects to technical objects. Note To assign real estate objects to technical objects, SAP Intelligent Real Estate needs to be activated.
