Maintenance costs and sign-off card

  • Estimated = manual; planned = from operations, parts, services; actual = issues, confirmations, receipts, invoices.
  • Value categories group costs for maintenance; unassigned costs mean a mapping gap.
  • Review: order costs view (technical and controlling), IW38/IW39, Maintenance Order Costs (F4603), MCI8, KOB1, cost center reports.
  • Settlement rule: receiver (cost center, asset, WBS, order), share, periodic or full; profile limits choices.
  • Settle: simulate → fix → run (KO8G period, KO88 single) → check balances → business complete (CLSD).
  • Completeness: clean log + no unexplained balances + settled total = receivers' maintenance costs.
  • Analytics: Technical Object Breakdowns, Technical Object Damages, Maintenance Planning Overview, MCI5/MCI7/MCI8.
  • KPIs in writing: backlog (weeks), preventive compliance, planned share, breakdowns and MTTR, cost against plan.
  • Coverage map: scenarios × variants × exceptions, selected by risk; protect exception tests.
  • Sign-off: no open critical/high defects; conditions need owner, date and closure evidence.
