Plant Maintenance Orders Printing: Create Work Packages With One Click

In this Article

    Successful plant maintenance is reliant on a plan that ensures efficient and effective plant equipment optimization. Learn how you can lighten your workload by streamlining the attachment of documents in SAP.

    Plant Maintenance Orders Printing: The Challenge

    Plant maintenance or repairs require extensive, highly detailed work order packages to ensure proper safety protocols are always followed. To be able to complete the maintenance and repairs correctly, many companies heavily rely on work order packages to maintain the plant.

    These work order packages are maintained inside SAP’s Plant Maintenance (PM) module – and each package also requires extensive additional document attachments to be completed. Each document attachment in a work order package must be printed out manually. This is because there is no simple way to print all the work order package’s attachments with the work instructions and forms from SAP. Therefore, the tedious process of compiling work order packages usually resembles the following:

    • Print a document attachment
    • Retrieve the document attachment from the printer (so it does not get lost in someone else’s print job)
    • Collate the document attachment with the previously printed documents
    • Print the next document attachment
    • … and so on until all the document attachments for the work order package have been printed and collated
