  Work Clearance Management (WCM) is a component of SAP's Plant Maintenance (PM) module. It is used to manage the process of obtaining approval for work to be done on a plant or facility. This includes the creation of work orders, the assignment of personnel to those orders, and the tracking of the progress of the work. WCM also provides a way to document and track safety-related information associated with the work.

Once the work order is created, personnel can be assigned to it and progress can be tracked. WCM also provides a way to document any safety-related information associated with the work.
