Overview of Maintenance Standard Operations

Oracle Maintenance provides you the option of creating operation templates called standard operations by defining the operation details and its resources. Each standard operation has a unique ID and can be reused in multiple maintenance work definitions and work orders. When you have similar operations in the maintenance process, you can create standard operations that can be reused.

The standard operations for maintenance-only organizations can be created, updated, and deleted (only using the user interface). You can then search and add the standard operation when creating a work definition or adding operations to a work order or reference it in a REST API of FBDI import.

The standard operations act as a standardized library of common operations facilitating the following:

  • You can centrally maintain and reuse the common and frequently used operations. This also reduces the possible data entry errors.

  • You can easily create the work definitions and maintain the work definitions and work orders faster. This also helps create standardized master data for maintenance.

  • Using the referenced option, you can automatically synchronize any change to a standard operation to the work definitions where the standard operation is referenced.

You can optionally define additional attributes in the bottom show/hide region of page. These are used to describe a standard repair and will be used in execution for supplier warranty claims and entitlements. These codes are defined using Condition Event Codes for each type of code.

Standard Operations can be created, updated, and deleted using REST API and Oracle Application Development Framework Desktop Integration (ADFdi). They can be enabled for both manufacturing, and maintenance or even both work methods in the plant details setup for the organization.
