Question #3
You settle a refurbishment order with the batches (valuation types) having price control standard price.
What is the effect? Note. There are 2 correct answers to this question.
- A . The effective costs are posted as a credit memo to a price difference account
- B . The effective costs are posted to the respective batch (valuation type).
- C . The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is posted with the value of the standard price.
- D . The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is posted with the value of the moving average price
Correct Answer: A C
A C
Explanation:
When you settle a refurbishment order with the batches (valuation types) having price control standard price, the following effects occur:
The effective costs are posted as a credit memo to a price difference account. This means that the difference between the actual costs of the refurbishment and the standard price of the batch is recorded as a variance in the accounting document. This ensures that the inventory value of the batch is not affected by the refurbishment costs1
The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is posted with the value of the standard price. This means that the inventory value of the batch is updated with the predefined price that is maintained
in the material master. This ensures that the inventory value of the batch is consistent and stable1
The other options are incorrect because:
The effective costs are not posted to the respective batch (valuation type). The batch valuation is based on the standard price, not the actual costs of the refurbishment1
The goods receipt for the batch refurbished is not posted with the value of the moving average price. The moving average price is only used for batches with price control moving average price, not standard price1

- A . Confirm time sheets
• Attach documents - B . Schedule resources
• Change task list - C . Display maps
• Display and maintain technical objects - D . Change BOM
• Create a work order on the ESRI map
Correct Answer: A C
A C
Explanation:
The SAP Service and Asset Manager application enables maintenance workers to perform various
tasks related to asset management, such as:
Confirm time sheets: Maintenance workers can record the time spent on work orders and operations, and submit them for approval. They can also view the status of their time confirmations and edit or delete them if needed. This functionality helps to track the labor costs and efficiency of the maintenance work1.
Attach documents: Maintenance workers can attach documents, such as photos, videos, audio files, or PDFs, to work orders, notifications, or equipment. This functionality helps to provide additional information or evidence for the maintenance work2.
Display maps: Maintenance workers can view the location of assets, work orders, or notifications on a map. They can also use the map to navigate to the destination, filter the map items, or switch between different map layers. This functionality helps to improve the spatial awareness and planning of the maintenance work3.
Display and maintain technical objects: Maintenance workers can view the details of technical objects, such as equipment, functional locations, or linear assets, and perform actions on them, such as creating notifications, work orders, or measurements. They can also edit the technical object data, such as the status, serial number, or manufacturer. This functionality helps to manage the lifecycle and performance of the assets.
The functionalities that are not available in the SAP Service and Asset Manager application for a maintenance worker are:
Schedule resources: This functionality is available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management application, which is a web-based application that supports the planning and scheduling of maintenance work. Maintenance planners and schedulers can use this application to assign resources, such as technicians, tools, or materials, to work orders and operations, and optimize the resource utilization and availability.
Change task list: This functionality is also available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management application, which allows maintenance planners and engineers to create and modify task lists, such as general task lists, equipment task lists, or functional location task lists. Task lists are used to define the sequence of operations and activities for recurring maintenance work.
Change BOM: This functionality is also available in the SAP S/4HANA Asset Management application, which allows maintenance engineers and technicians to create and change bills of materials (BOMs) for technical objects, such as equipment or functional locations. BOMs are used to list the components and materials that are required for the maintenance work.
Create a work order on the ESRI map: This functionality is not available in the SAP Service and Asset Manager application, which only supports viewing the existing work orders on the map. To create a work order on the map, the maintenance worker would need to use the SAP Work Manager application, which is another mobile application that integrates with the ESRI ArcGIS platform. The SAP Work Manager application allows the maintenance worker to create a work order by tapping on
a map location, and assign the work order to a technician or a crew.

Question #5
What are mandatory characteristics of orders with Operation Account Assignment (OAA)? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question
- A . Overall costs are dynamically summed up on the header level.
- B . A technical object must be assigned to an order operation
- C . Costs are stored only for the operation object
- D . Purchase requisitions have the operation as account assignment.
- E . The settlement rule is maintained on the header level.
Correct Answer: B C D
B C D
Explanation:
Orders with Operation Account Assignment (OAA) are a special type of PM/CS orders that allow the detailed planning, capture and reporting of costs at the order operation level. The operations have their own settlement rules enabling more accurate cost updating of multiple assets maintained using a single PM/CS order.
The mandatory characteristics of OAA orders are:
A technical object must be assigned to an order operation. This ensures that the operation is linked to a specific asset and can be settled accordingly. The technical object can be an equipment, a functional location, or a material.
Costs are stored only for the operation object. This means that the order header does not have any costs associated with it. The costs are allocated to the operations based on the actual postings of goods movements, confirmations, and invoices.
Purchase requisitions have the operation as account assignment. This means that the purchase requisitions created from the order components are assigned to the operation instead of the order header. This allows the tracking of costs at the operation level.
The characteristics that are not mandatory for OAA orders are:
Overall costs are dynamically summed up on the header level. This is an optional feature that can be activated by using the business function LOG_EAM_SIMPLICITY_2. This allows the display of the total costs of the order operations on the order header level.
The settlement rule is maintained on the header level. This is not a characteristic of OAA orders, but rather a limitation. The settlement rule for OAA orders can only be maintained on the operation level, not on the header level. This means that each operation has its own settlement rule and can be settled to different receivers.

Question #6
What are the prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question
- A . Add a serialized material to the equipment serial data view.
- B . Assign a serial number profile to an additional business view for equipment category
- C . Assign a serial number profile to the equipment category
- D . Assign a serial number profile to the related material master.
- E . Maintain a serial number for an existing equipment master.
Correct Answer: C D E
C D E
Explanation:
Serializing a piece of equipment means assigning a unique serial number to identify and track the equipment throughout its lifecycle.
The prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment are:
Assign a serial number profile to the equipment category. This defines the rules for creating and managing serial numbers for the equipment, such as the number range, the check digit, and the serial number usage. The serial number profile is assigned in the Customizing activity Define Equipment Categories under Plant Maintenance and Customer Service -> Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service -> Technical Objects -> Equipment -> Equipment Categories.
Assign a serial number profile to the related material master. This ensures that the material and the equipment have the same serial number profile and that the serial number is automatically copied from the material to the equipment. The serial number profile is assigned in the material master data in the Plant Data/Stor. 1 view under Serial Number Profile.
Maintain a serial number for an existing equipment master. This can be done either manually or automatically. Manually, you can enter the serial number in the equipment master data in the Serial Data view under Serial Number. Automatically, you can link the equipment with a serialized material and the serial number will be copied from the material to the equipment. This linking can be done either with a goods movement or manually.
The options that are not prerequisites for serializing a piece of equipment are:
Add a serialized material to the equipment serial data view. This is not a prerequisite, but rather a possible way to link the equipment with a serialized material and copy the serial number from the material to the equipment. However, this can only be done if the serial number profile is already assigned to both the equipment category and the material master.
Assign a serial number profile to an additional business view for equipment category. This is not a valid option, as the serial number profile is assigned to the equipment category itself, not to any additional business view.

Question #7
You want to set up a scenario for regular maintenance. The first event should take place after 1 year, after that, it is a regular cycle of 6 months.
Which parameter do you have to use to map this in the system?
- A . Package hierarchy
- B . Scheduling indicator
- C . Maintenance package offset
- D . Cycle modification factor
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
To set up a scenario for regular maintenance, the first event should take place after 1 year, and after that, it is a regular cycle of 6 months, you have to use the maintenance package offset parameter to map this in the system. The maintenance package offset is used to define the time interval between the start of the maintenance plan and the first call date of the maintenance package1. A maintenance package is a set of data that defines the frequency and scope of the maintenance tasks2.
For example, if you want to create a maintenance plan with two maintenance packages, one for annual inspection and one for semi-annual inspection, you can use the following settings:
Maintenance package 1: Cycle length = 12 months, Offset = 0 months, Scheduling indicator = Time-based
Maintenance package 2: Cycle length = 6 months, Offset = 12 months, Scheduling indicator = Time-based
This means that the first maintenance package will be called at the start of the maintenance plan, and then every 12 months thereafter. The second maintenance package will be called after 12 months from the start of the maintenance plan, and then every 6 months thereafter.
The other parameters that are not relevant for this scenario are:
Package hierarchy: This is used to define the relationship between different maintenance packages within a maintenance plan. It allows you to create nested or parallel maintenance packages that are dependent on each other3.
Scheduling indicator: This is used to define the type of scheduling for the maintenance package, such
as time-based, performance-based, or condition-based4.
Cycle modification factor: This is used to modify the cycle length of the maintenance package by a certain percentage or factor5.

- A . Maintenance work center
- B . Maintenance planner group
- C . Organizational unit
- D . Storage location
Correct Answer: A D
A D
Explanation:
A maintenance plant is the organizational unit in which the technical objects to be maintained are physically present. A maintenance plant can be directly assigned to the following objects:
A maintenance work center, which is a location where maintenance tasks are performed. A maintenance work center can be a person, a group of persons, or a technical object, such as a machine or a vehicle. A maintenance work center is defined by its capacity, availability, and cost rates1
A storage location, which is a place where spare parts and materials are stored within a plant. A storage location can be a warehouse, a bin, or a shelf. A storage location is defined by its address, stock type, and valuation area2
The other options are incorrect because:
A maintenance planner group, which is a group of planners who are responsible for planning maintenance activities in a maintenance planning plant. A maintenance planner group is not directly assigned to a maintenance plant, but to a maintenance planning plant. A maintenance planning plant is the organizational unit in which maintenance requirements are planned3
An organizational unit, which is a generic term for any unit of an organization that performs a specific function or task. An organizational unit can be a company code, a plant, a sales organization, a purchasing organization, etc. An organizational unit is not directly assigned to a maintenance plant, but to a higher-level organizational unit, such as a company code or a controlling area.

Question #11
Which of the following is a prerequisite for external refurbishment?
- A . Define the order type for external refurbishment.
- B . Select the material group for externally refurbished materials.
- C . Assign an external work center to a maintenance order operation
- D . Activate the subcontracting indicator in an external activity.
Correct Answer: D
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.

Question #12
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 . Goods receipts for external services can be entered.
- B . The planner can change planned costs at the operation level
- C . The planner can change estimated costs only at the header level
- D . The controller can determine actual cost surcharges.
- E . The assignment of the notification to the maintenance order header cannot be deleted.
Correct Answer: A D E
A D 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.

Question #23
What are characteristics of the Preparation and Scheduling phase within phase-based maintenance? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question
- A . If you use the Resource Scheduling apps, you always dispatch orders and operations.
- B . The order moves to the Preparation phase once it is approved and released
- C . Maintenance Planning Buckets give you a list of non-approved notifications
- D . The configuration of the order type decides whether you use Resource Scheduling or not.
Correct Answer: B D
B D
Explanation:
The Preparation and Scheduling phase within phase-based maintenance is the phase where the maintenance planner divides the maintenance effort into manageable groups, levels out the workload over several weeks, determines the concrete time period for the requested maintenance work, and checks the availability of all the resources, spare parts and services needed1.
Option B (The order moves to the Preparation phase once it is approved and released) is correct, because the approval and release of the order is the last step of the previous phase (Approval phase)2. Once the order is approved and released, it is ready for preparation and scheduling.
Option D (The configuration of the order type decides whether you use Resource Scheduling or not) is also correct, because the order type determines whether the order is relevant for resource scheduling or not2. Resource scheduling is an optional step in the Preparation and Scheduling phase, where the planner can assign and dispatch the orders and operations to the technicians using the Resource Scheduling apps2.
Option A (If you use the Resource Scheduling apps, you always dispatch orders and operations) is incorrect, because the Resource Scheduling apps allow the planner to either dispatch or assign the
orders and operations2. Dispatching means that the planner assigns a specific technician and a specific time slot for the order or operation, while assigning means that the planner assigns only a technician or a team, but not a specific time slot2.
Option C (Maintenance Planning Buckets give you a list of non-approved notifications) is also incorrect, because the Maintenance Planning Buckets app gives the planner a list of approved and released orders that are ready for preparation and scheduling2. The non-approved notifications are handled in the previous phase (Screening phase)2.

Question #29
The planner adds non-stock material in a released maintenance order.
What are possible options within the maintenance order? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question?
- A . A purchase requisition can be created automatically as soon as the order is saved.
- B . The maintenance order can be set to TECO before the invoice is created
- C . A goods receipt can be posted after the maintenance order is technically completed.
- D . A purchase order is created automatically as soon as the order is saved.
- E . A purchase requisition will ALWAYS be created as soon as the order is saved.
Correct Answer: A B C
A B C
Explanation:
Non-stock materials are materials that are not kept in stock, but are procured externally as required1. They can be maintained in the material master as service products (product type SERV). You can add non-stock materials to an operation or suboperation as a component. The system creates a purchase requisition and a purchase order in the same way as for non-stock materials that you procure externally1.
Among the given options, the following are possible for non-stock materials in a released maintenance order:
A purchase requisition can be created automatically as soon as the order is saved. This is the default behavior for non-stock materials, unless you change the configuration settings2.
The maintenance order can be set to TECO (technically completed) before the invoice is created. This is possible if you use the compatibility mode for external procurement, which allows you to technically complete the order even if there are open purchase requisitions or purchase orders2.
A goods receipt can be posted after the maintenance order is technically completed. This is possible if you use the enhanced mode for external procurement, which allows you to post goods receipts for non-stock materials after the order is technically completed2.
The following options are not possible for non-stock materials in a released maintenance order:
A purchase order is created automatically as soon as the order is saved. This is not possible, as the purchase order requires manual processing and approval after the purchase requisition is created2.
A purchase requisition will ALWAYS be created as soon as the order is saved. This is not always true, as you can change the configuration settings to create the purchase requisition manually or at a later point in time2.
Therefore, the correct answers are A, B, and C.
