Which of the following is a prerequisite for external refurbishment?
D
Explanation:
External refurbishment is the process of sending defective or worn-out spare parts to an external
vendor for repair or replacement. To carry out this process, you need to create a maintenance order
with an external operation that has the subcontracting indicator activated. This indicator allows you
to create a purchase requisition and a purchase order for the external service. The external operation
also requires an external work center, a control key, and a material component with the valuation
type of the defective part. The order type for external refurbishment is not a prerequisite, but a
configuration option that can be used to differentiate the process from internal refurbishment. The
material group for externally refurbished materials is not relevant for the process, as the material
master data is not changed by the refurbishment. The assignment of an external work center to a
maintenance order operation is necessary, but not sufficient, for external refurbishment. You also
need to activate the subcontracting indicator in the external activity. Reference:

What is characteristic for a maintenance order with status REL- if you also consider the capabilities of
business functions? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.
A B E
Explanation:
A maintenance order with status REL means that the order is released and ready for execution. At
this stage, the following characteristics apply:
A . Goods receipts for external services can be entered. This is true because external services are
procured through purchase orders that are linked to the maintenance order. The service performer
can post service entry sheets to record the executed work and consumable materials.
These service
entry sheets can be approved and posted as goods receipts for external services1
.
B . The planner can change planned costs at the operation level. This is false because once the order
is released, the planned costs are frozen and cannot be changed by the planner.
The planner can only
change the estimated costs at the header level2
.
C . The planner can change estimated costs only at the header level. This is true, but it is not a
characteristic of a released order.
The planner can change the estimated costs at any time, even
before the order is released2
.
D . The controller can determine actual cost surcharges. This is true because the controller can use
the business function LOG_EAM_CI_7 to calculate and post actual cost surcharges for maintenance
orders.
This function can be used for orders with status REL or TECO3
.
E. The assignment of the notification to the maintenance order header cannot be deleted. This is
true because the notification is the source document for the maintenance order and provides the
reason for the order.
The notification can only be deleted if the order is deleted or set to status
CRTD. Reference: 1

Which of these are necessary steps of the Inspection Checklist process? Note: There are 2 correct
answers to this question
A C
Explanation:
The inspection checklist process is an end-to-end process from the creation of inspection plans to
results recording and follow-up actions in Plant Maintenance. The necessary steps of the inspection
checklist process are:
Generate object lists for the maintenance order, which contain the technical objects to be inspected.
Generate inspection checklists for the maintenance order, which contain the inspection lots based on
the inspection plans assigned to the technical objects.
Record the inspection results for the inspection characteristics in the inspection lots.
Record the usage decision for the inspection lots, which determines whether the technical objects
are accepted or rejected.
Therefore, option A (Generate Inspection Lots within the checklists view) and option C (Record the
usage decision for an Inspection Lot) are correct, while option B (Link PM task list with assigned
inspection point type to a maintenance item) and option D (Generate Inspection Lots assigned to
maintenance order headers) are not part of the inspection checklist process.

Which objects can you assign to a Maintenance Service Order Item? Note: There are 2 correct
answers to this question.
A B
Explanation:
Which component is used to display data in the Technical Object Breakdowns and Technical Object
Damages app?
B
Explanation:
The Technical Object Breakdowns and Technical Object Damages app use SAP Lumira Designer to
display data in a user-friendly and interactive way. SAP Lumira Designer is a tool that allows you to
create analytical applications and dashboards based on SAP S/4HANA Core Data Services (CDS)
views. SAP Asset Strategy and Performance Management and SAP Predictive Analysis are not
components used to display data in this app, but they are other solutions that can help you optimize
your asset management strategy and performance. Reference:

Which functions characterize a Strategic analysis as opposed to embedded analysis within the SAP
S/4HANA core system? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question
B D
Explanation:
Strategic analysis is a type of analysis that provides a high-level overview of the business
performance and trends, as well as the ability to drill down into the details and perform root cause
analysis. Strategic analysis is typically performed by business analysts or managers who need to
make strategic decisions based on the data. Strategic analysis requires a collection of tools that are
not included with core SAP S/4HANA, such as SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP Business Planning and
Consolidation, SAP Business Warehouse, and SAP Business Objects Business Intelligence. These tools
enable the integration, transformation, modeling, and visualization of data from various sources,
including SAP S/4HANA and other systems. Embedded analysis, on the other hand, is a type of
analysis that provides real-time insights into the operational data within the SAP S/4HANA core
system. Embedded analysis is typically performed by end users or operational managers who need
to monitor and optimize the business processes and transactions. Embedded analysis relies on
preconfigured Core Data Services (CDS) views that contain SQL views of the data in SAP S/4HANA.
These views can be accessed by SAP Fiori apps, SAP Smart Business KPIs, or SAP Analysis for
Microsoft Office. SAP Business Objects is not a part of SAP Business Warehouse, but a separate
product that can connect to SAP Business Warehouse or other data sources. Therefore, option C is
incorrect. Reference:

Which requirements have to be fulfilled so that an Inspection Checklist with Inspection Lots is
generated? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.
A C
Explanation:
A . An Inspection Plan and a technical object must be assigned to the same class. This is true because
the inspection plan and the technical object must have matching classification characteristics for the
inspection checklist generation.
The class defines the characteristics that are relevant for the
inspection plan and the technical object1
.
B . A PM task list with inspection point type must be assigned to the maintenance order. This is false
because the inspection checklist generation does not depend on the PM task list.
The inspection
checklist is based on the QM inspection plan, which is a different type of task list2
.
C . An object list must have been generated manually or automatically. This is true because the
object list contains the technical objects that will be checked for matching inspection plans.
The
object list can be generated from the header object of the order, and objects from the maintenance
plan item3
.
D . A checklist type must be assigned to the maintenance order header. This is false because the
checklist type must be assigned to the maintenance order operation, not the header.
The checklist
type defines the inspection lot origin and the inspection type for the inspection
checklist4. Reference: 1

How does the work center influence cost calculation in the maintenance order? Note: There are 2
correct answers to this question
B D
Explanation:
The work center influences cost calculation in the maintenance order via the cost center and activity
type, and via the activity type and hourly rate. The cost center and activity type are assigned to the
work center in the master data, and they determine the planned costs of the work center. The
activity type and hourly rate are used to calculate the actual costs of the work center based on the
actual hours reported for the maintenance order operations.
Option A (Via cost center assigned to a personnel number) is incorrect, because the cost center
assigned to a personnel number is not relevant for the cost calculation of the work center. Option C
(Via organizational unit and personal hourly rate) is also incorrect, because the organizational unit
and personal hourly rate are not used to calculate the costs of the work center.
