Functional Scope of the IS-U/CCS System
IS-U/CCS stands for "Industry Solution Utilities - Customer Care & Service".
IS-U/CCS is a business-process-oriented sales and information system for all types of supply and
services offered by a utility company. When dealing with the customer, the clerk uses the Customer Interaction Center of the IS-U/CCS.
The core IS-U/CCS application is the consumption billing system that valuates measured consumption

What is the Scope of the Work Management
System?
The daily work of a utility company involves the processing of a large number of work orders. The orders must be accepted, planned, calculated, executed and when neccessary, billed to a customer. In this process, a distinction needs to be made between external work orders relating to the customer
"services" and internal work orders. External work orders are modeled using service orders from the Customer Service (CS) component. Internal work orders are modeled using maintenance orders

The Work Management Process
Work order creation Once the user has entered the order data, the order creation process is mostly
automatic. The system uses information provided by service territory data and compatible units.
Work order estimate To estimate costs of an order, a customer quotation can be created. The order
costs can be created automatically and transferred to the quotation (SD).
Accounting and Settlement The default values for order accounting and settlement are determined by
the system and transferred to the order. Influencing factors may be: (1) order type, (2) technical reference object, (3) service territory, or (4) division.

SAP Components and Interfaces
Work Management uses functions from various standard SAP applications. These functions are grouped
together to map IS-U-specific business processes. They are also supplemented with industry-specific functions, if necessary. The flexibility of the SAP System also enables external systems to be integrated in the business processes.

Terms and Concepts in Work Management
Service products describe a service offered to the customer, for example, install service connection, and
contain price information. Service objects are, however, not offered to the customers as products, but can subsequently be invoiced. Since the service must be performed internally or by third parties, a task
list is allocated to the service product or object. A service order or maintenance order is created on the
basis of the task list.
A sales order is a customer request to the company for the delivery of goods or services at a certain
SAP AG 1999
The Work Management System simplifies and
standardizes work order processing.
The process includes order planning, work
approval, scheduling, field force reporting, work
completion, and financial completion.
Work Management integrates various SAP
components and complementary software
products.

Cross-Plant Plant Maintenance
A maintenance plant is not a maintenance planning plant: A technical installation needs to be maintained
in plant 1200, which generates a maintenance requirement (=maintenance plant). All the remaining functions (such as maintenance planning, order execution, spare parts warehouse) are assumed by plant 1000 (=maintenance planning plant). Plant 1300 takes on the order execution itself while plant 1000 takes on the other subfunctions (order planning, spare part storage). These are examples of cross-plant
maintenance.

Functions of the Work Center
A standard value is a planned value for the execution of an operation. Costs, execution times, and
available capacity can be calculated from this standard value using formulas. In the work center, the standard value key and rules for maintenance are used as a basis to define which standard values must/can be specified in the operation and which units of measurement are displayed for the standard values in the operation.
Costing is used to determine the costs of internal services and activities. It aims to assign the costs

Assignment to a functional location
A piece of equipment is an individual, physical object that is to be maintained as an autonomous unit. It can be installed at a functional location or in a superior piece of equipment for a certain period of time.
In the course of its useful life, it can be used at different installation locations.
Pieces of equipment can be structured hierarchically, enabling the structure of complex pieces of
equipment to be represented.

Allocation of one or more pieces of equipment
A functional location is an organizational unit within Logistics that structures the maintenance objects
of a company according to functional, process-oriented or spatial criteria. A functional location represents the place at which a maintenance task is to be performed.
Pieces of equipment are installed at functional locations. The times at which a piece of equipment is in
use at a functional location are documented in chronological order.

The structuring of assets from a bookkeeping perspective in the FI-AA component is not influenced by
the technically-oriented structuring in the Plant Maintenance (PM) component. The PM component has its own structural organization (functional location, equipment). This structure enables you to organize installations according to maintenance requirements.
You can create a link between the PM and the FI-AA components by entering the FI-AA asset number in
the equipment master record. In this way, you can also

Equipment Usage List
The usage of a piece of equipment can be relevant to performance, damage frequency, breakdown
behavior and the comparison of products from different manufacturers. For the purposes of maintenance, therefore, it is important that you can find out at any time when and where a piece of equipment is (or was) installed. This information may be found in the usage list in the PM system.
The usage list, or equipment history, documents the maintenance history of the equipment in relation to

A technical object can be subdivided into assemblies. An assembly is not an individual object but rather
an object category (similar to a material).
If a damaged object is not repaired but exchanged, it makes more sense for it to be managed as an
assembly rather than as a piece of equipment.
A notification or an order can also be created for an assembly. The maintenance history of an assembly

Technical objects in T&D and CCS are mapped using
functional locations and equipment.
You can structure technical installations by creating
hierarchies and using object links.
Structuring of objects depends on the physical
structure of the supply grids.
Functional locations and equipment are to be
maintained. Services can also be performed here.
The functional locations and pieces of equipment are
assigned to objects in the organizational structure
(such as plants, cost centers).

1-1-1 A functional location is an organizational unit within Logistics that structures the
maintenance objects of a company according to functional, process-oriented or
spatial criteria. A functional location represents the place at which a maintenance
task is to be performed.
1-1-2 From a Utilities Industry (IS-U) perspective, functional locations are data objects
in the Materials Management (MM) application component. The connection
object and device location in the IS-U component are maintained as material
masters in MM.
1-1-3 A piece of equipment is an individual, physical object that is to be maintained as
an autonomous unit. A piece of equipment can be installed at a functional
location or in a superior piece of equipment for a certain period of time. In the
course of its useful life, it can be used at different installation locations.

Processing begins when a customer or employee reports an outage, a malfunction, or submits another
request (for a modification, for example). An order can be created directly or on the basis of a notification.
Typical planning tasks include specifying operations, reserving spare parts or determining work hours. The order is then transferred to scheduling and controlling. Availability is checked, required capacity is
provided, required shop papers are printed.
