SAP Exam C_S43_2022 Topic 5 Question 40 Discussion

A cycle set sequence is a feature that allows you to combine several multiple counter plan cycles in a set and determine the order in which the system considers the cycle sets for scheduling.A multiple counter plan is a maintenance plan that is based on one or more performance-based or time-based cycles1.

In this case, you can create a cycle set sequence with two cycles:

Cycle 1: Every 3 MON: pump inspection

Cycle 2: Every 24 MON: pump replacement

You can assign a different maintenance item and task list to each cycle, and specify the repetition factor for each cycle. The repetition factor determines how many times the cycle is repeated before the next cycle in the sequence is considered. For example, if you set the repetition factor of cycle 1 to 8, the system will schedule the pump inspection 8 times before scheduling the pump replacement.

By creating a cycle set sequence, you can achieve the requirement that when replacing the pump, the operation pump inspection will be ignored. The system will only generate a call object for the maintenance item that is assigned to the current cycle set. Therefore, when the pump replacement is due, the system will not generate a call object for the pump inspection.

The other options are incorrect because:

Assign different hierarchy levels: Hierarchy levels are used to structure the task list operations into groups and subgroups. They do not affect the scheduling of the task list operations.

Set the lead float: Lead float is a time buffer that is added to the start or finish date of a task list operation. It does not affect the scheduling of the task list operations.

Create a task list hierarchy: A task list hierarchy is a structure that contains several task lists that are linked together by a superior task list. It does not affect the scheduling of the task list operations.
