General Task List Components

Does anyone know if there is a way to specify the item category for components when using a General Task List?  Equipment Task Lists allow this functionality but I've found no way to change from "L" when using general and would like to be able to select "N".  We are on ERP 6.0.
Thanks for your assistance.

Looks like we can have plants set-up a repair parts assembly and assign it to the General Task List.  Then they can configure the BOM as required for ordering.
Thanks all.

  • General task list: component selection from BOM - possible in batch input?

    Hi experts,
    for the assignment of non-stock material to general task lists I have followed the advice from message[6115684|Re: General Task List Components;.
    So what I have done is:
    - Include non-stock material in BOM
    - Assign BOM to general task list header
    When clicking on the "Component selection" button in the task list components, I can select a component.
    When entering the material number of the component directly though, I get an error: "Material type X and line item type L not compatible" (CO135).
    I would like to upload the general task lists with a batch input recording, but I can't figure out how to select components.
    Any thoughts?
    Kind regards,
    Andreas

    Hello,
    We have the same requirement to load tasklists (change & create).  We are using the function modules EAM_TASKLIST_CREATE and EAM_TASKLIST_CHANGE.  However, i cannot get a non-stock BOM item to process.  Has anyone got this working?
    Thanks,
    Clay.
    EDIT: Found the answer - simply fill in the fields for BOM on the component (STLTY, STLNR, STLKN, and STLAL).

  • General task list with component : creating standard BOM

    Hello,
    When adding a component to a general task list , i get a "create standard BOM" screen , see below for example :
    Standard object PA00000212            
    Plant                                 
    BOM Usage       4                                                          
    Change Number                        
    Valid From           07.09.2009      
    Can someone explain to me the relation between standard BOM and component within a general task list ?
    Thanks,
    P.

    Hi,
    Pls find some of the points below for your referece
    Standard BOM:
    Can used for assigning the material from the BOM to Task list operation
    That is, BOM  components for the object (Equipment, Functional Location , Assembly) can be retrived and assigned to maintenance Task list of the operation
    Condition: BOM corresponds exactly to the content of the structure list
    Free Material Assignment:
    Assigning Stock Material (Material number) those are not listed in the BOM of maintenance object directly to the maintenance task list
    Condition:  Setting to be done as BOM usage for Plant Maintenance (4)
    Path: Maintenance plans, work centers, Tasl Lists and PRTs>>>>>Tasl Lists>>>>>Control Data>>>>Define Presetting for Free Assignment of Material-----BOM Usage as 4
    Pls note that, while making free assignment, system creates an internal BOM  and this can not be processed from application.
    Hope this may useful
    Thanks

  • LSMW Transaction IA06 - Change general task list

    Hi,
    I'm using BDC for transaction IA06.  But now I've encountered a problem in the maintenace package.
    For each GROUP(PLNNR) and COUNTER (PLNAL), there are different number of maintenance package: screen field: RIHSTRAT-MARK01, RIHSTRAT-MARK02, RIHSTRAT-MARK03, etc.
    In my source data, the input value is in number which corresponds to the text in each RIHSTRAT-MARK  For example, the maintenance package for group PRPMP counter 1 has 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 26, 52.  From my source data, the package is 12, then I will have to check the 6th box. 
    The problem is, there are different number of packages for each group and counter, and the sequence of package text is dfferent too. 
    I'm wondering if there is a table that stores the number of package and it's corresponding text for each group and counter?
    I've searched the forum, but there seems no discussion about this issue.  I'd appreciate any feedbacks from you.  Thanks in advance.
    Lily

    Lily Wu:
    Were you able to find a solution to loading the data maintenance package: screen field: RIHSTRAT-MARK01, RIHSTRAT-MARK02, RIHSTRAT-MARK03, etc.  ??   Transaction IA06 (Change General Task List: Maintenance Package Overview), Program SAPLCPDI, Screen 3600.   I have searched forum too and do not see discussion on this topic also. 
    I have a similar situation needing to load Maintenance Package indicator data via IA05 thru LSMW.  I have an LSMW using the Standard Batch/Direct Input.  It is using Object 490 (Gen. task list) Method 0000 and the program Name is IBIP.  I am able to import 2 files.  1 for the Task List Header to Structure IBIPTLST.  The 2nd file to the Task List Components IBIPTMAT.  This process works, but the requirement is to also load the data to update ("check") the  screen field: RIHSTRAT-MARK01, RIHSTRAT-MARK02, RIHSTRAT-MARK03, etc. with the proper 'X's for each component.
    I have found suggestions to use the IBIPMPAC (Maintenance Packages) structure to load.  But this structue is looking for a 2 character field (i.e. KTEXTZYK01, KTEXTZYK02, etc.  of type KTEXTZYK).  This looks like the data that would be used for Maintenance Strategies Cycle Lengths found in IP11.
    Any assistance in loading the Maintenance Package indicators is helpful.  Thank you in advance.

  • Problem with numbering of general task lists by creation thru LSMW - (IA05)

    I'm using a sequencial file to create general task list thru LSMW (Object 0490 which corresponds to TCode IA05).
    The numbering range for general task list groups is internal. I executed batch input and it works pretty well with the first general task list group, but every next fails, because the number of the previousy created task list stays in the user buffer and apears in the PLNNR field, so the system assumes I'm trying to create a new group counter instead of new general task list group.
    I explicitely set IBIPTLST-PLNNR = '' in field mapping - still the same problem. I also set user parameter PLN to be empty in SU3 and still no luck. I even turned off the historic data in local data tab of SAPGui, but the problem persist.
    Can anyone tell me how can I achieve it without changing the numbering range to external?

    Hi,
    From IBIP Help:
    Initial fields
    As a general rule, initial fields in structures are not transported into the corresponding screen field. In other words, fields that are blank are ignored. If you explicitly want to reset a field to the value "<blank>", you must mark the field in the batch input structure with the value !. This is the reset indicator, and means that a field is to be reset to its initial value.
    Try setting IBIPTLST-PLNNR to !

    Hi,
    I have problem when searching for general task list via classification (in service order, extras>task list selection>direct entry). When I doubleclick a task list, group counter is not copied back in first selection screen; only group has copied. How can I solve this problem?

    hi Ashok,
    I've checked classification data for general task list, it's ok. but, I still don't have group counter copied. In other tabs of search help is everything ok.

  • LSMW for General Task Lists

    Hi SAP gurus.
    I'm using LSMW program 490 for general task list.
    When I use the program, it jumps to IA01. I have allready run SM31, and add the value IA05 in SXDA3 table. But the problem still continue.
    Is it possible to link the operations in task list with the packages of Strategies, in LSMW?
    I really need som help on this.
    Many thanks.

    hi
    you have to change the T code to IA05 in the table /SAPDMC/LSOCOD for your project ,in SE16N specify the project name and before executing it specify &sap_edit in the command field and execute the T code .in the list you have to change the Tcode from IA01 to IA05 .
    I think you can assign the maintenance packages to the operation .you have to use a separate sheet and create separate source structure for the same .i havn't tried but just check it

  • General task list External no range ( Masking)

    Hi
    Our client want to use external no range for general task list and want to restrict the group name as aaa-0000 ( first 3 charcters and '-' 4 numaric ) . when creating a task list if the user enters in some other format ( all characters ) it is accepting .
    My question is can we restrict this like edit mask in Functional location. If user try to create task list group in some other format it should give error message .
    Thanks in advance
    Gangadhar

    Hi,
    there is no masking like in functional locations, however you can define number range for external numbering for task lists.
    You can also set authorizations for creating task lists.
    Hope it helps..

  • Lsmw for general task list (IA05)

    Dear Experts,
                        I am developing lsmw for general task list (IA05). For that I have created two recordings one for header item and another for its operation respective to that group (PLNNR). I had created 2 flat file for it, one for Header Data and one for Operation. I am linking files with respect to its group (PLNNR).
                      This lsmw works for its header data perfectly but at its operation level it will not get group counter(PLNAL) for the respective group(PLNNR). I have to select group counter and click on opertaion manually, after that it fills the opertation perfectly.
                      So can anybody suggest me how to link header and operation data in lsmw.
                     Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sunil.

    Hi Sunil,
    I guess you are using object type 490 to create tasklists.
    To do this create one flat file and not two flat files.
    The flat file structure has to be like this..
    TCODE Record Name  Data
    for first task list
      IA05       IBIPTLST       Header data
    for single operation
                    IBIPTLOP        Operation data
                    IBIPTEXT         Long text data
                    IBIPTMAT        component data
    for second operation
                    IBIPTLOP        Operation data
                    IBIPTEXT         Long text data
                    IBIPTMAT        component data
    for second task list
      IA05       IBIPTLST       Header data
    for second task list - 1st operation
                    IBIPTLOP        Operation data
                    IBIPTEXT         Long text data
                    IBIPTMAT        component data
    for second task list - 2nd operation
                    IBIPTLOP        Operation data
                    IBIPTEXT         Long text data
                    IBIPTMAT        component data

  • Copy General Task List from one service order to another one

    Dear Guru,
    I have the following questions:
    1- From a service order in IW32, how can I see the link between the operations and components?
    2- I want to be able to copy all the operations and all the components contained in a service order into another service order for a similar type of equipment. Can someone help me step by step on what needs doing?
    KR
    Christian

    Hello Sebastian,
    Many thanks for your quick reply indeed on this.
    Now this is the catch: I know that I could create a new service order based on a previously created one using IW31, however in my department they are creating sales orders for equipments in the normal SAP SD flow.
    In one the material line they enter a service material which is converted into a ZC03 (Service order) when saving the normal sales order which creates automatically a Service Order number.
    Because they create a lot of those service order in that way, they want to be able to populate them with the same list of operations and relevant components all the time.
    If they would be using IW31 to make copies, they would have to cancel the previously generated service order deriving from the regular Sales Order in SD which we want to avoid simply because it alters the original sales document flow.
    Question:
    1- I tried to copy the description of the task lists present in my service order thinking that would also copy the list of relevant and subsequent components defined for each task. The system has only copied the description of the tasks but not the components.
    Is there a way we could copy a list of general tasks to automatically have those coming with the relevant components?
    Please advise

  • PM - Task List Components with "Non-Stock" item Category

    Hi:
    I am setting the PM module, in concret the preventive task lists. For a certain operations I have to assign some components to certain operations, but the system only allows to add "Stock Items", I mean the item category of the material row is set automatically by the system as "L" (Stock Item).
    I am very interested in to assign "Non-stock items" (Item category = "N").
    Is it posiible??
    If the answer is yes, what I have to do? Have I to change some customizing settings?
    Thank you very much in advanced,
    Kind regards,
    Jordi Palau.

    hi
    In task list you cannot able to assign item category other than L which is stock item.there is no customization to allow the same
    but you can indirectly assign the material with item category N.create BOM for the equipment then while adding the material you have to select from the BOM which is having item category N
