Understanding Integration with PeopleSoft Maintenance Management

PeopleSoft Maintenance Management is a PeopleSoft Asset Lifecycle Management solution that gives you the tools to plan and schedule maintenance and construction, facilitate the accurate completion of the work, streamline the capture of the results, and automatically process the financial implications of the work. PeopleSoft uses work orders in PeopleSoft Maintenance Management to track the costs associated with maintaining or creating assets.

The PeopleSoft Maintenance Management system uses PeopleSoft Project Costing functionality to gather work order costs from the PeopleSoft Purchasing, Payables, Expenses, and Inventory feeder systems. PeopleSoft Project Costing stores work order costs in the Project Transaction table (PROJ_RESOURCE) and uses the costs to capitalize assets, calculate chargebacks, and provide cost analysis data based on the execution of a work order in PeopleSoft Maintenance Management.
