Confirmation and Posting

After maintenance is done by the engineers, the maintenance order can be updated with the damage reasons and types, and the Ending Date should be set.

Orders that are processed internally can contain item and resource lines. Orders that are processed by external companies can contain G/L accounts.

Prior to posting the order, the Status field must be changed to Finished. The maintenance order can be posted by choosing the Post action. The entire maintenance order will be archived and then the Maintenance Order Archive page can be opened using Tell Me.

The Posted-by Entry No. field on the Lines FastTab refers to the last entry that was posted because of the maintenance order line. Depending on the type, it can be an Item Ledger Entry, a Resource Ledger Entry, or a G/L Entry. No maintenance entries are posted for fixed assets because the Plant Maintenance is not linked to the Fixed Asset module.

Note

If you have the integration with Advanced Manufacturing Suite (AMS), then header and line text will be transferred from the maintenance order. For more information about AMS integrations in AMP, see To open or add text in maintenance order header and lines.

The confirmation of the production order with the times for the failure of the machine is posted separately by the production planner. The times can differ from the posted times for the maintenance order and the entries must be attached to the work center as well.
