HVI connects directly to SAP Plant Maintenance. Equipment records and PM plans flow from SAP to HVI. Completed work orders — with labour, parts, and costs — post back to SAP PM automatically. Maintenance notifications convert to work orders in one tap. Your SAP PM data stays accurate without dual entry.
Work orders completed in the field take days to reach SAP. Costs post late. Maintenance history has gaps. PM schedules drift because nobody updated the counter readings. The field and the office run on different timelines.
Paper work orders. Handwritten labour times. Parts consumed but not recorded. Costs post to SAP days later. PM schedules based on calendar estimates instead of actual usage.
Technician completes work order on mobile. Labour, parts, and photos captured at point of work. Data posts to SAP PM in real time. PM counters update from telematics.
SAP PM has accurate work order history, real-time costs, and current counter readings. PM plans fire on schedule. Finance trusts the maintenance numbers.
Work orders flow both ways between SAP PM and HVI. SAP PM work orders appear in HVI for field execution. Work orders created in HVI — from inspection defects, breakdown reports, or maintenance requests — post back to SAP PM with the correct order type, equipment, functional location, and operations. On completion, labour, parts, and costs settle to SAP automatically.
SAP PM maintenance plans — both time-based and counter-based — import into HVI so field teams see upcoming service schedules. Maintenance notifications from the field create in SAP PM and can be converted to work orders in one tap. Counter readings from telematics update SAP PM automatically so PM plans trigger from actual usage, not calendar estimates.
When a work order completes in HVI, three cost streams post to SAP automatically. Internal labour costs charge through activity-based costing from the PM work center. Material costs flow from SAP MM goods issue against the maintenance order. External service costs post from vendor invoices. All three settle to the correct cost center and equipment in SAP FI/CO.
Full work order lifecycle managed bi-directionally. Create, release, execute, technically complete, and business close — status changes sync between SAP PM and HVI in real time.
Malfunction reports and maintenance requests created in HVI post to SAP PM as notifications. Notifications convert to work orders in one tap with equipment and location pre-filled.
Time-based and counter-based PM plans from SAP PM import into HVI. When a plan triggers, HVI creates the work order for field execution and posts completion back to SAP.
Equipment master records with serial numbers, installation dates, warranty info, and technical specifications flow from SAP PM to HVI. Field teams always have the correct equipment data.
SAP PM functional location hierarchy maps to HVI. Inspections and work orders reference the correct plant, area, and location structure from SAP for accurate cost allocation.
Every completed work order, inspection result, and cost entry builds maintenance history in both SAP PM and HVI. Complete audit trail for regulatory compliance and equipment lifecycle analysis.
Technicians execute SAP PM work orders on mobile devices with photo evidence, voice notes, and signed PDFs. No paper. No re-typing. Data posts to SAP PM as work completes.
Defect found during daily inspection becomes a notification in SAP PM and a work order in HVI — one tap. Equipment, location, and defect description pre-filled from the inspection.
Engine hours and mileage from telematics update SAP PM counters automatically. PM plans trigger from real equipment usage, not calendar guesses. No manual counter updates.
Labour, materials, and services settle to SAP FI/CO on work order completion. Finance sees real-time maintenance costs by equipment, cost center, and PM order. No batch processing.
Common questions from maintenance teams before connecting SAP Plant Maintenance to HVI.
Yes. Work orders created in SAP PM appear in HVI for field execution. Work orders created in HVI from inspections or maintenance requests post back to SAP PM with order type, equipment, functional location, and operations mapped correctly.
SAP PM maintenance plans (time-based and counter-based) import into HVI. When a plan triggers, HVI creates the work order for field execution. Completed work orders post back to SAP PM with labour, parts, and costs automatically.
Engine hours and mileage from GPS and OEM telematics providers connected to HVI update SAP PM counter readings automatically. Counter-based PM plans trigger from actual equipment usage, not manual estimates.
On work order completion, labour costs post through activity-based costing from the PM work center. Material costs flow from goods issue (movement type 261). External service costs post from vendor invoices. All settle to the correct cost center and equipment in SAP FI/CO.
Yes. A defect found during a daily inspection in HVI creates a notification in SAP PM and can be converted to a work order in one tap. Equipment, functional location, and defect description are pre-filled from the inspection record.
Yes. HVI supports SAP S/4HANA (cloud and on-premise) and ECC 6.0. Work orders, PM plans, notifications, equipment master, and cost posting work across both SAP versions via RFC/BAPI or OData APIs.
Yes. Photos, voice notes, and signed PDF reports captured during HVI inspections are linked to the corresponding SAP PM notification or work order as document attachments accessible from SAP.
SAP PM integration is included in the HVI enterprise subscription. Implementation support, equipment master mapping, PM plan import, and go-live assistance are included at no extra charge.
Bi-directional work orders. PM plans from actual counter readings. Costs posting to SAP FI/CO in real time. Inspection defects becoming work orders in one tap. The field and SAP finally on the same timeline. Free trial included.
