Incident/Accident log - plant maintenance notification

In the incident accident log, from the safety measures screen, there is provision given to raise "os ihs notification" for the technical safety measures suggested. Can anyone explain in details why & where this would be required as the user department (production department) normally raises breakdown notifications if there is damage to any equipment in an incident.
Thanks and regards,
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
The facility to create PM notifications from EH&S workbench has been provided for separately tracking EH&S safety measures as deemed by various EH&S departments in organizations. This helps in determining the KPI's and KRA's of the EH&S management in an enterprise. The notification gets created with separate notification type i.e. OS in SAP R/3 which communicates through SAP EH&S through function module "REHS_GET_ACTIONS_FROM_PM". This updates the status of the notification in EH&S. So, for a EH&S representative in an organization, getting a report of what all EHS notifications are open for action, is quite handy to plan his follow-up and reporting. Moreover, it's not always the case that notifications are raised for only braekdown of the equiments. It can be more elementary such as some gasoline spill have occured out of an incident. In this case person reporting the event would like to list safety measure for cleaning the pump area and tightening the leaking flange for arresting the leak. The first would amount to triggering notification to the housekeeping dept by specifying the relevant person responsible, and the second would trigger the notification to the maintainance dept. for flange tightening.

Incident/Accident Log - Create description field in new tab page

Dear all,
I have a question about Incident/Accident Log.
In the Incident/Accident Log, a new tab page and fields inside it can be created using class and characteristics, respectively. The characteristic value field is limited to 30 characters length by the system.
Is there any way a field for comments (say, of 100 characters minimum length) can be created in the tab page.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mohan

Hi Mohan,
I don't think there is any standard way to increase characteristic value field. However, you may want to consider a workaround. You may create a 'Multivalue' characteristic with 30 characters length. This gives you an option of entering multiple lines of 30 characters. The problem with this is... SAP automatically sorts the values.
For example,
if you enter
THIS IS A MULTIVALUE
CHARACTERISTIC WITH 30
CHARACTERS IN LENGTH. I NEED
TO ENTER COMMENTS THAT ARE
MORE THAN 30 CHARACTERS.
(Please note that I am putting the word in next line if it cannot be accomodated fully in the current line. That means, some lines may contain less than 30 characters.)
SAP Shows it as,
CHARACTERISTIC WITH 30
CHARACTERS IN LENGTH. I NEED
MORE THAN 30 CHARACTERS.
THIS IS A MULTIVALUE
TO ENTER COMMENTS THAT ARE
You may put numbers infront of each line to avoid this.
1 THIS IS A MULTIVALUE
2 CHARACTERISTIC WITH 30
3 CHARACTERS IN LENGTH. I
4 NEED TO ENTER COMMENTS THAT
5 ARE MORE THAN 30 CHARACTERS.
I know it is not the best solution, but worth giving a shot.

Incident/Accident Log CBIH82 - How to attach a picture?

Hello,
How can I attach a picture to a Incident/Accident Log (CBIH82). I know we can use DMS but this is long and fastidious.
I use ECC 6 and I know there are update from EHP3+ but I'm not planning to migrate soon.
I also see an option in CBIH82, in the menu Environment > Document Management -> Create Document but this menu is greyed out.
What do you suggest me?
Thanks,
François

Sorry François,
why don't you want to use SAP DMS to attach a pic to incident/accident log? It takes a little configuration and works pretty fine.
Does your resistance with the SAP DMS is something technical? I could provide you with some help regarding that subject.

Standard measure for every incident/accident log

Hi,
Is it possible to have a predefined standard measure for every incident/accident log of a specific type entered in the system (or when the type changes to one of the specified types), e.g. that this measure is created when the incident/accident log is saved?
For another question we looked into BAdI: Handling of Actions after the Database Commit, but for this issue that will not work, because an update of the log itself with a standard measure cannot be done, because the log is still open at that time.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Kind regards,
Caroline

Hi Pavan,
The standard measure will be used to prompt the departments to do a specific check. This is a new procedure that not everybody is used to yet, so hence the standard measure. And also to guarantee that this important check is in fact done.
The contents of the measure will be something like this: 'Add this risk in the RI&E.'
Hope this clarifies things.
Kind regards,
Caroline

Risk Assessment link with incident/accident Log entry.

Hi
Nee your input for below Challenge.
We are looking for development, which help us to link Risk Assessment with incident/accident Log entry in CBIH82.
Scenario - We would like to add Risk Assessment option in the incident / accident log entry screen, like we standard have function for safety measure
Thanks
Sunil Jawalkar

Hi Sunil,
Are you attempting to u201Clinku201D the standard IHS Risk Assessment functionality to the Incident/Accident log?
In my opinion there is a fundamental problem with this solution approach. The standard IHS Risk assessment is inherently linked to a Work Area. The intention is to identify, evaluate and control risks and hazards that are encountered within a specific work area. This functionality supports measurement management and exposure management but does not fit well with the acute nature of the incident based risk assessment, although, a risk that is identified and addressed initially as the result of an incident may ultimately be added to the Risk Register of the Work Area where the incident occurred.
The best approach I have found is to enhance the incident record with a Risk Assessment tab that allows the user to identify the individual incident risks based on different risk impacts like People, Environment, Assets, Reputation, Quality and so forth based on client requirements. Any incident could have one or more risk impacts that contribute to the overall risk rating of the incident. Each u201Crisk impactu201D is evaluated on the clients standard risk matrix dimensions like Severity, Likely hood and so on. In this way each risk impact has a unique risk rating. You can then either identify one of the impacts as the main incident risk rating or have a routine that, based on logic and risk matrix, evaluates the unique risk impact ratings and determines an overall risk rating for the incident.
Once the unique risk impacts have been evaluated, there should be the ability to reevaluate each impact based on the controls or safety measures that have been implemented. These u201Cresidual risksu201D could be linked directly to the safety measure that addresses the risk so that the details of the control are apparent.
I would also consider some type of status management that would indicate when the risk assessment was complete. This could be used to enforce a risk assessment for incidents that meet predefined conditions like u201Cincident cannot be closed if it meets criteria 1, 2 and 3 and the risk assessment status is initialu201D. The risk assessment status could also be used support reporting requirements for outstanding risk assessments and so on.
To implement this approach, I would recommend utilizing one of the menu exits or, if possible, a custom Web Dynpro application linked via BAPI.
Hope this helps or at least spurs some thought.
Regards,
Scott

Incident Accident log entry - Problem in involved person displayed

Dear All,
I am currently working on the Incident accident log development. I am creating the IA log using the function modules and it is generated properly. The RECN number getting generated in a sequential way while running in development and quality, but in production the numbers are getting mismatched. Like for the first time creation the numbers are sequential, for the second time in change mode if i try to add any involved person, the RECN number getting generated is not greater than the one which is created first.
I have some doubts,
1. The RECN generated is a number range object
2. The missed numbers in the sequence will be reused
3. The implication of these numbers on displaying the involved persons in the table.
Thanks & Regards,

Incident/Accident log - Immediate Action taken

Hi,
can anyone explain me where to record immediate actions taken against an incident or accident.
thanks in advance
kavi

Hi Ravi,
You can use the following methods to solve your problem:
1. In the Investigation tab, u will find the Root cause tree.. For each node, you can link the Safety Measures.
2. Provide the Action details in More accident data tab
3. If you need a new tab, create a new Value assignment type in the Customizing, assign it to Object type "IAL - Incident/ Accident Log entry" and then you can provide Free text or assign phrases as Immediate actions taken (If you opt for Phrase Management).
Hope it Helps,
Raghu

Plant Maintenance notification

Hi all,
In notification (PM) the I-button (blue-white) in the reference object screen area is not there for a one of the notification type. User wants this button is to be there. I checked configuration settings , screen category object for this notification type is 0100 (Functional locationequipmentassembly). Please anyone guide me in getting this button in notification. I am new to PM module.

Hi,
For that particular notification type you may not have assigned a object information key.
This can be done in customizing.

Hello VM,
With ECC 6.0 ENHP 3, by activating business function set: u201COPS_EHS_CI_1u201D in tcode SFW5 ( SPRO-> Activate business functions), there is a tab page Documents created in CBIH82. You can directly assign document in this tab page which will create a DIR in the back ground. For this there are certain IMG activities required from DMS and EHS side.

Cause Code - Structure for Plant Maintenance Notification

Dear firends,
I am trying to create cause code group structure for a notification as follows,
--> Superior Level Cause Code Group ( XXXX)
                    - -> Cause Code Group (XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ... (1010)
In standard SAP we can create a Cause code group for a catalog then assign the Cause codes to the Cause code groups then assign to the Catalog profile ...and the structure looks like as follows (AS IS)
        - -> Cause Code Group(XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ...(1010)
But in my case i need to add one more level above the "Cause Code Group" as shown below ( TO BE)
--> Superior Level Cause Code Group ( XXXX)
                    - -> Cause Code Group (XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ... (1010)
Please assist me is there any way to accomplish this requirement through user exit or something else.Thanks.

Babu,
Do the Divisions have its own Equipment base?          - Ans : NO
Do they create Notification for the same Equipment?   - ANS : YES
So, lets take the case 2 you mentioned ...
Case2:
If they are creating notification for a same equipment (EQ01 is common for all Divisions), you can create Defect code group with Division Name CHEMDEF1, CHEMDEF2,... BIODEF1, BIODEF2... etc ...
User has to select appropriate Defect code group and defect code.... If he enters Def code as Cause code group system will populate caused relevant for particular Def Code ...
Problem here is lets say the Defect Code Group CHEMDEF1 has two defect code A010 & A020 ,
                                                                              CHEMDEF2 has three defect code B010, B020 & B030.
I would like to bring this Defect Code Group CHEMDEF1 & CHEMDEF2 under DIV1 and Defect Code Group BIODEF1 & BIODEF2 under DIV2.
Example : The structure should look like this ..
                - DIV1 ( Superior level needs to be added on the Structure) - Will it be possible ?
                        - CHEMDEF1 ( Defect Code Group)
                                       - A010 ( Defect Code)
                                       - A020( Defect Code)
                        - CHEMDEF2( Defect Code Group)
                                       - B010( Defect Code)
                                       - B020( Defect Code)
                                       - B030( Defect Code)
                - DIV2 ( Superior level needs to be added on the Structure) - Will it be possible ?
                        - BIODEF1
                                       - C010
                                       - C020
                        - BIODEF2
                                       - D010
                                       - D020
                                       - D030

FM to create plant maintenance notification

Hi all,
Could anyone help me with this problem! Notification is not getting created when i call the standard BAPI BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE. I have called the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT .
Tha BAPI returns a notification number .But when i check with this notification number i get a message Notification doesnt exist.
Can anyone give me a solution for this.
Thanks,
Renjitha

Hi Renjitha Nambiar,
You need to call 3 FM's.....
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE'
      EXPORTING
        notif_type         = wa_notif_type-notif_type
        notifheader        = wa_notif_header
      IMPORTING
        notifheader_export = wa_result
      TABLES
        notitem            = t_notifitem

        longtexts          = t_longtext
        return             = t_message.
you need to pass the WA_RESULT value in 2nd FM...
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE'
        EXPORTING
          number = wa_result-notif_no
        TABLES
          return = t_message.

Incident/Accident Log: additinal text for Investigation causes

Hi there,
We are investigating the options in EHS for our business.
I have two questions relating to EHS::
- Is there any way we can add some user-defined text to the Cause Hierarchy on the Investigation tab
- Is there any useful config documentation on EHS (not including the SAP Help)
Thanks in advance
PeteA

Hi Pete
Following four points comes to my mind for the question raised by you.
1. Although I can understand the business requirement of detailing the root causes against the conncerned nodes, but one has to keep in mind that cause heirarchy is only meant for identifying the root causes amongst the already structured causes.
2. The details of the root causes has to anyhow be a part of the subsequent accident / investigation report, which can be uploaded as document or written as free text either at "user-defined texts, documents" (under "goto") and/or "Investigation result" field.
3. The "cause description" for the cause nodes are 128 character long field in SPRO. You can revisit the spro for writing some more details of the cause description subject to 128 characters.
4. Still, if you wish to have a work-around, I would suggest to use "Safety measure" facility. Safety measures can be assigned to every cause nodes, and for every safety measure, one can maintain its description as a free- text field. Here you can include details of the cause identified.

Pavan

EHS: Incident/Accident management. Workflow

Hi Everyone,
I need to trigger a workflow that will send a notification to a user/s every time a status change occurs on an incident. I am not familiar with EHS at all and need to know if anyone can tell me what object and event will be used to trigger this workflow. I also need to attach a smartform to the workflow notification that will be send to the users inbox and I am not sure how that is done.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Gerda

Thank you both for the replies.
BUS1240 is not defined on our system and the demo workflow WS11200006 also does not work for what we want to do.
I had to create objects for the Incident/Accident log and Safety measures and had to define the attributes,methods, events etc. and used that to trigger and drive the workflow.

Incident / Accident Internal no. assignment

Hi,
I have a question about internal no. assignment to incident / accident log when transferred from Injury / Illness log.
I have created on Injury / Ill ness log with 00000000000000000001 no. The next injury / Illness log was created with 00000000000000000003 no. and when I transfrred the Injury / Illness no. 00000000000000000001 to Incident / Accidnet log with tcode CBIH89, it created Incident / Accident log with internal no. 00000000000000000002.
Here after what ever injury / Illness log I have created, it created in proper sequence with internal no. assignment. But whenever I have transferred injury / Illness log to Incident / Accident log, it is skipping some nos. in between while creating Incident / Accident log. It is not coming in sequence.
I am not able to understand this internal no. assignment behaviour.
Can anyone explain me the same?
I am checking ths scenario on IDES server.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Niraj

Niraj Bhai
same thing happens when u r creating IAL thro CBIH82
if u enetr details and just press enter IAL LOg gets generated, but if u save then only u can furtehr edit it, but if u dont save the record after clicking on enter, and comes out of t code,
particular number generated is consumed, and u will not find any record with this consumed number , even not in CCIHT_IAL
i think happens because, incidnet is created in 2 stages, first it creates incident with number and keeps it in buffer, then it updates the record, means it fills person involved data from creation screen to involved tab, this happens when it is saved
and wrt ur case, u r creating IAL through CBIH89 i e by transfering from IIL to IAL, i think same thing happens of first creation and then update,
by debugging we will come to know exactly hat happens
thanks and regards.
