SAP PM

Liquid UI for iOS
Challenges
Manual transfer of work order data from paper to SAP – Maintenance personnel recorded work order details on paper and later entered them into SAP.
Navigating multiple SAP transactions slowed work order processing – Users moved across several transactions to create, confirm, and search work orders.
Limited access to SAP PM outside desktop systems – Work order information was primarily available through wired SAP access.
Additional steps required for maintenance documentation – Personnel captured photos separately and later attached them to SAP records.
Solution
Mobile SAP PM access on iPad devices – Users can create work orders, view details, generate notifications, and confirm work directly from mobile.
Role-based SAP PM dashboard – Users see assigned tasks and work orders based on their login.
Consolidated SAP PM screens – Multiple SAP screens and tabs were aggregated into a dashboard interface.
Integrated photo capture within SAP – Device cameras allow users to take pictures and attach them directly to SAP records.
