    Data on problems, malfunctions, damages, causes and problem solutions or malfunction corrections

    is recorded in the system or reported to the planner responsible in the form of technical findings
    after a visual check, after the object has been inspected or checked, or the problem has been
    determined. This data forms part of the service or maintenance notification and is entered in the
    maintenance history.
    Catalog profile will group different characteristics of the notification which will cater the needs of
    management to analyse the company assets & to ascertain the decisions accordingly. Catalog
    profiles have sub class of code groups which will group the codes as per their feature.
    All the codes (Damage, Cause, Task & Activities) illustrate why an asset failed during production,
    what is the cause for that failure, tasks to be performed & activities done for that failure. The use of
    codes in a SAP system ensures a consistent way of documenting the key aspects of the damage,
    cause, etc., event according to pre-defined categories. Some examples include:

     Breakage
     Corrosion
     Imbalance
     Misalignment
     Overheating
     Vibration

    Why are they used?


    Catalog Profile are used in SAP which enables subsequent analysis possible, which leads to net
    improved system availability. For example, the number of times an instance of a particular failure
    code occurs, divided by the total operating age of the equipment, approximates the failure rate. For
    maintenance organizations that don’t use failure codes, determining any sort of failure trend is a
    labor-intensive process of searching through work orders and making several educated guesses.

    Why should you use them?
