Dropdown in Manufacturer field in Equipment Master

Hi Experts
Manufacturer  (HERST) field in Equipment master(IE01) is  free text field of 30 characters.
We want to add  dropdown to this field so that we could validate/select values to this field.
Is there a user exit or easy way to achieve this. I found a user exit IEQM0007 but it does not add  a dropdown.
Your thoughts.
Thanks
Gaurav

Gaurav:
I saw this before. Actually, we pu a dropdown not only for the manufacturer, but also for the model. The problem is that i don't remeber wich u.e we used, but it's quite not difficult to abap programmer tracing it. Perhaps it could modify the field type, replacing it for some one with the dropdown propertie. You will have to use an Z table (and maintain it), so consider that also
Hope this help.

  • Manufacturer field in Equipment

    The manufacturer field in Equipment data object is connected to what other data object? (I'm thinking BOM)), I want to see what data objects will be affected if this field is not properly filled out (incorrect manufacturer).

    Hi Cherry,
    We had a validation between the Manufacturer in Equipment and Materail master Manufacturer.
    Material is maintained as Construction Type in Equipment, so we need to map the manufacturer for Equipment and Material Master.
    This is just for reporting purpose and most commonly used in BI/BW reporting.

  • Use of Sort Field in equipment Master

    Dear All
    What is the use of SORT field in Equipment Master Record

    Dear Kumar Sahoo,
    This field is for identification purpose and generally give similar technical objects
    example:if you have so motors like lathe and drilling and lifting and milling etc thease all motors are same motors and if you want see the list you can give sor name then see, otherwise you have to give each number and find out
    some  more benefit is you can list sorting and unic identification of similar objects
    generally using internal purpose, i mean there is no relation of external procurement or warranty or any outside of company activiteis.
    Hope this may helps you

  • Po number field in Equipment Master

    Hi All,
    Can you tell me how i can include two fields in Equipment Master.
    1. For PO Number
    2. Po Line Item Number.
    If there is no standard field, can you please tell me if there is any Additional Fields that i can use for PO number and Line Item number pls.
    Also the Equipment Valid Date field needs to be changeable. Can you please advise a way to make this Field ITOB-DATBI changeable. 
    Thanks
    Arun

    Hi,
    If you want PO and PO Line item to be included in the Equipment, you can create Characterics called Purchase Order and PO Line Item and then assign these characteristics to an equipment class (create one if you do not have an existing equipment class).
    Assign this Class to all the equipment you want, then you can input the PO and PO line items values into the characteristics.

  • Use of construction type field in Equipment master

    Dear All,
    What is the use of construction type field in equipment master and how can i use in plant maintenance  processes or transactions
    If possible give some examples.Also any one have some document or link related to construction type, kindly provide.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sandeep

    Construction Type is used for identify the equipments having similar construction of materials.
    For examples: Identical Mechanical seal used in different pumps.
    A BOM can be linked to a technical object in two ways:
    By direct assignment: directly assigned BOM
    If you create a bill of material directly for a technical object, it is assigned directly. If all the technical objects are identical in terms of structure, the BOM items are valid for all the allocated technical objects.
    By indirect assignment: indirectly assigned BOM
    For technical objects that have a material BOM - if you enter a material number in the Construction type field of a master record, the material BOM is indirectly assigned to the object. This is a good idea when a company has several identical technical objects grouped under one material number.

  • Adding custom fields to Equipment master General tab ?

    Hi Gurus,
    I have requirement where in I need to add two custom fields in IE02/IE03.
    Completed part :
    1. The new fields are added in the EQUI table in CI_EQUI structure.
    2. Created a project in CMOD and linked enhancement ITOB0001 to it .
    3. Activated the User exits EXIT_SAPLITO0_001 and EXIT_SAPLITO0_002.
    4. Logic in EXIT_SAPLITO0_001
    E_SUBSCREEN_NUMBER = '1020'.
    I_OBJECT_TYPE = '02'.
    I_ACTIVITY_TYPE = '3'.
    EQUI-zfld1 = I_DATA_EQUI-zfld1.
    EQUI-zfld2 = I_DATA_EQUI-zfld2.
    Logic in EXIT_SAPLITO0_002
    E_UPDATE_DATA_EQ-zfld1 = EQUI-zfld1.
    E_UPDATE_FLAGS_EQ-zfld1= 'X'.
    E_UPDATE_DATA_EQ-zfld2 = EQUI-zfld2.
    E_UPDATE_FLAGS_EQ-zfld2 = 'X'.
    Now the place where I got stuck is do I need to create a subscreen to add these new fields in SAPLITO0 , 1020 screen ?
    Do I need to create a Function group ? If yes how do I link these.
    I think I need access to Edit from SE51.
    I have browsed many threads but no luck.
    Thanks
    Navya.

    No, just
    Read carefully the SMOD enhancement documentation
    During CMOD execution, double-click on one of the Customer-exit dynpro (first time, choice the first one, the other dynpros will be used later for other objects)
    In EXIT_SAPLITO0_001, pass the dynpro number in export parameter (e.g. 1000 for first one)
    NB: In this exit you receive I_OBJECT_TYPE  as imported parameter to identify Object Type: '1' = F/L '2' = EQU '3' = SER (do not try to change it ) so include may start with a CASE I_OBJECT_TYPE. WHEN 'EQU'. E_SUBSCREEN_NUMBER = '1000'... ENDCASE.

  • Planner Group field in equipment master data

    Dear All,
    My client is having Maintenance dept. which is divided in to 3 sub departments like Mechanical, Electrical & Civil. By referring this I am going to create following Planner Groups.
    I have decided to maintain following planner groupu2019s for planning & preparing maintenance tasks.
    1) Head Mechanical
    2) Head Electrical
    3) Head Civil
    In my case I am planning to maintain Planner Group at Equipment level. I am not going to maintain at Functional Location level.
    My client is saying that they have many Equipmentu2019s for which Planner Group must be above 3 & few Equipments having Mechanical & Electrical Planner Group.
    For example, Compressor is Equipment for that Mechanical & Electrical both is responsible for planning & preparing maintenance tasks. *So they wanted both Planner Groups to be maintained at Equipment level. But as per SAP standard you can maintain only one Planner Group at Equipment or Functional Location level.*
    I have few questions in my mind related to Planner Group.
    1) What is the importance of Planner Group?
    2) If I have not maintained Planner Group at Functional Location & Equipment Level then what will happen?
    3) Can I maintain Planner Group at PM Order level?
    4) Suppose I have maintained Planner Group u201CHead Mechanicalu201D in Equipment but after some days there is some electrical maintenance is come up. Then I will create PM order for carrying out Electrical maintenance, in this can I able to change Planner Group from Mechanical to Electrical. But is this a correct way to change Planner Group in PM Order.
    Regarding this query how I can convince to my client.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sandeep

    Sandeep,
    I would suggest the structuring the system as follows.
              Mechanical (Work center)
                        MEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                        MEng2 (Activity)
                        MEng3 (Activity)
                        MEng4 (Activity)
              Mechanical (Work center)
                        EEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                        EEng2 (Activity)
                        EEng3 (Activity)
                        EEng4 (Activity)
              Civli (Work center)
                        CEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                        CEng2 (Activity)
                        CEng3 (Activity)
                        CEng4 (Activity)
    In a single order you can use different work center activities... ie. in a single order, you can use Elect Eng for some operations + Mech eng for some operations
    Capture and seggregate  the cost of each dept in the same order ie. Elect Labor cost, Mech labor cost in Cost tab
    You can get the report work center wise and Activity type wise

  • Class field in equipment as mandatory

    Hi Expert,
    Is there any possibility to set class field in equipment master data as mandatory field?
    I cannot found the setting, currently we are using ECC6
    Pls help,Thanks
    Rgds,

    Hi Leni,
    Through configuration its not possible.
    Check with your abap team for applying below mentioned user exit while create and change of equipment.
    User Exit - IHCL0001 - Create equipment using material template: Classes/chars
    or
    User Exit - IEQM0003 - Additional checks before equipment update
    This will meet your requirement.

  • Passing planned date, call date to equipment master

    Friends
    I just come thro one requirement. We have the instruments going for the calibration process thro Plans. In this what i need is each instruments maintenance plans call date date (calibration due), completion date (calibrated date)  which has to pass on equipment master.
    Is it any functionality available for passing these values into the equipments master.
    Also we are planning shutdown jobs (No PS Module) thro maint order for various equipments. The requirement is in one single order for various machines i have to plan the shutdown jobs instead of going individual order. But its not possible at IW31.
    Can i have some idea how you are handling this shut scanario

    Hi,
    To add these fields in equipment master, i dont think there is a standard way, instead you can use an exit to create a new tab page and add these fields in it.
    Regarding shutdown maintenance you can go for revision no., that will help you collaborate all the orders created during this shutdown maintenance. Or create an order as shutdown maintenance and then create its suborders with individual maintenance tasks.
    Thanks,

  • Possibility of giving match code  for Manufacturer in Equipment Master

    Hi -
    We can have a field exit on fieler HERST of Equipment Master.
    Is there any possibility of giving a match code on this filed? so that we can maintain a table for manufacturer and user can select any one entry from this table.
    We do have activated filed exit for manufacturer check, but need to further restrict the entry so that there is uniformity of entry maintained in this field.
    Kindly advice.

    hi narendar,
    some information :
    In addition to the above mentioned exit we have also created a custom match code for this field in one of our project ... the exit gets triggerred whenver user hits enter and the value entered here is used in selection criteria that displays the custom popup window ... the data is picked from vendor master table the selection createria we used was vendor name and description and vendor acount group MNFR - for manufacturers would be defaulted and displayed.So you can go with creating a custom match code which is invoked whenever user selects F4...
    regards

  • Warranty Date field in the equipment master data

    Hi everyone!
    I wanted to display the warranty date field in the equipment master data (IE01). I have already made the configuration and added the additional tab and screen thru this path:
    Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Technical Objects > General Data > Set View Profile for Technical Objects
    But still, the tab is not added and the warranty date field is not found in the "Define Field Selection for the Equipment Master Record". please help me with this. We need this data because we are not using serial numbering and warranty master data that's why a way to track the warranty date is thru this adjustment in the equipment master data screen.
    Thank you very much.

    Marlon,
      Make sure that you have assigned this specific profile to the Equipment category of the associated equipment that you are creating under SPRO > PM> Master data> tech object > Equipment > Equip category.
