Integration between plant maintenance & SD

Hi Friends,
I have an requirement for configure the following scenario for my clinet:
Client have around 500 trucks for transportation. They want to maintain these truck as equipments in plant maintenance.
During creation of sale order in SD, customer wants to view avialble trucks in the maintenance plant. and select the suiatable truck in sale order for transportation of material.
Request your valuable tips to configuare the same in SAP.
Thanks in advance.
Shankar

Hi Shankar,
If you have already decided to use truck as RTP material, the solution is pretty much standard....I don't see any issue in ability to view RTP stock...Have you already designed and went ahead and stuck with any specific issue in this? If not start working on it....You will see RTP stock at each customer in standard MMBE as well...absolutely no issues in this standard solution...Let me know at what point you are stock...perhaps, we can analyse the predecessor steps..

Plant Maintenance - Linkage between Task List and Maintenance Plan

Sir,
In Plant Maintenance, I have an equipment for which there are 9 maintenance activities that have to be performed every year. Out of these 4 activities will be carried out every month. 1 activity will be carried out during the months of February, June and October. 5 activities will be carried out only in the month of December.
I need to create Task List for all these activities and subsequently create Maintenance Plans for all these Task Lists.
Can I group all the 4 activites which will be carried out every month into one single Task List, with separate operation nos and time against each activity?. I don't know whether it is correct or not.
If I use the above method I can create 3 Task Lists for this particular equipment with same Group no and 3 Group Counters.
How to create Maintenance Plan for the above scenario?.
Eventhough, 4 activites are carried out every month and they have been grouped into a single Task List (Group counter 1) and if these activites are carried out on different dates within a month how can I create Maintenance Plan and subsequently create a Maintenance Order?.
I need some help in this regard. A detailed reply will be helpful.
Can anyone throw some light in this regard.
Regards,
R. Vijayakumar

you need to create one task list with a maintenance strategy with packages and hierarchy to outline the work requirements i.e. some tasks to be carried out 3 monthly some 4 monthly etc, and also if common tasks appear in 3 monthly package vs 4 monthly package then to suppress the duplicating task
you would then define a strategy based maintenance plan and run it to get the respective maintenance orders

Catalog Interface (OCI) - Customizing for Plant Maintenance order ERP2005

Hello Experts,
we want to use the integration between SRM and ERP2005. In the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5d/0eba5fa0084247acbb0c04cede18e8/frameset.htm">sap documentation</a>sap documentation I found the following:
'In the Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service or in the Customizing for Project Systems, you entered the required data about the catalog that you want to connect to the SAP R/3 system. You can find the corresponding IMG activities under Interface for Procurement Using External Catalogs (OCI).'
However I can`t find this IMG activities in our ERP2005 system.
What`s wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
U. Wieland

Hi! Additional we had to generate the img new.
Unfortunaetly I haven`t a idee how does this work. (Our sap basis did this.)
Through the assign from catalog to order type, I think it nessary to use the pm-img-activities...

Plant maintenance Iviews

Hi Gurus,
Can we use Business Package Assets to create Plant maintenance iviews?
Joseph
Edited by: Anja Engelhardt on Oct 13, 2011 9:10 AM

Hi joseph,
You can use this iView to display maintenance-related objects (such as equipment, functional locations, materials, measurement documents, and so on) in the Asset Viewer.
The Asset Viewer is a display tool that enables simple navigation through complex object relations. You can navigate flexibly within and between objects.
You can also use object navigator which is a reusable display tool that has been integrated into this iView.
You can specify which object types can be viewed in the structure view in Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service under> Maintenance Roles> Maintenance Worker --> Asset Viewer -->Specify Objects for Structure View.
Thanks&Regards

Origin Object Type for Plant Maintenance Orders in Profit Center Accounting

Hi,
I want to make a selection for plant maintenance orders in transaction KE5Z, report for line items in Profit Center Accounting. When checking possible input options for the selection field <b></b>Origing Object Type<b></b> the system shows value 15 for Maintenance Orders. However I discovered in our system the maintenance orders are reported as Origing Object Type 03, which is Overhead Orders according to the selection list. So I cannot distinguish between overhead orders and maintenance orders in this report.
What is the cause our maintenance orders are assigned to Origin Object Type 03 in stead of 15 and what is the customizing transaction to correct this ?

Looks like, this is no longer supported. Refer to note 168004 and 102434.
Cause and prerequisites
These functions were not programmed to meet the above requirements.
As of Release 4.0, the object type is transferred directly.
Solution
Once you have implemented the advance correction. the origin object type 'Overhead cost order' (03) is assigned irrespective of what is the SCOPE for orders.
As a result of implementing this note or as of Release 4.6B, the order category distinguishes between overhead cost orders and production orders in the origin object type. In this case, the following origin object types result (as described above in 1.):
Order category 04 to 10, 40 => 04 (production order)
All other order categories => 03 (overhead cost order)
The logic that the origin object type was set depending on the object class (as described above in 2.) is no longer supported. The object class can be evaluated separately in Reporting. -
The corrections of this note refer in Release 4.0B to the corrections from Note 102434.

Task list creation in plant maintenance.

Hi All,
I have the function module /ISDFPS/TASKLIST_CREATE which was used in my program under one more Z function module, we have a XI integration also here earlier we were using service pack SP10 so this program was working fine as integration with other interfaces was working fine.Now the client has upgraded to service pack SP14 and so the standard FM got one more parameter T_CUOB which was not mapped because in SP10 it was not available. Pls can anybody suggest me what is this parameter T_CUOB and what is the business significance of it.
The standard FM was used for creation of a task list in plant maintenance for Functional location, equipment etc.
Vishnu.

Hi Vishnu,
I am just wondering if you got an answer to this question. We are having the same problem, but we do not care what the value is for t_cuob, therefore we need to default it to something like null or blank.
Thanks

'Log Book' in plant maintenance (SAP PM module)

Dear Experts
I want to know about 'Log Book' in plant maintenance (SAP PM module). How to work on LOG BOOK & what are the configuration settings available in SAP PM for Log Book?
Basically, the concept of logbook is to update shift activities & measures during Plant Maintenance without SAP. but in SAP, What i know about the Log book in SAP PM is : It is an industry specific feature, before it was only used in (IS- Aeronautical). but now it is available in ECC 6.0 also. To activate this node, we need to update the patch 2.0 in ECC 6.0
Thanx,
PMGURU

Dear,
The Logbook is an easy-to-use tool that supports the controlling and execution of daily maintenance tasks for assets in operation. This tool provides personnel, who are operating the assets, with the functions to log defects and operational data. It provides maintenance personnel, such as maintenance engineers and technicians, with functions that ensure the timely and reliable execution of their maintenance tasks.
Logbook is easy to use and provides functionality that is seamlessly integrated with follow-on processes of the mySAP for Aerospace & Defense solution for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO). For example, operational data captured in the Logbook updates measurement points that, in turn, trigger preventive maintenance events. Maintenance work steps created in the Logbook generate material and resource requirements in materials and capacity planning. Material exchanges update the asset structure and automatically generate the required goods movements.
An important business example for using the Logbook is to control the daily line maintenance tasks for aircrafts.
The logbook helps you record defects encountered during aircraft flights and the actions taken to correct them. The log may also include the space to record additional flight data, such as the names of the crew members, flight parameters, payload data, fueling data, flight hours, and cycles operated.

Rakesh

Dear Angel SAP,
Link Between SAP SD, MM & FI
1. In SAP you will always get integration with other modules. SD will interact with FI, MM will interact with SD :-
1a. Looking at MM and SD interaction first, take the scenario of a third party order process. This process uses a purchase order (which is sent to your vendor). Also invoice verification is used further along the process to check that the invoice you send to your customer is the same material and quantity as that which the vendor sends to you (but obviously shipped
directly to your customer).
1b. Billing is an SD function. But SAP needs to know, when processing a customer's payment, to which GL account the payment has to be processed. For instance payment of a UK based material would be placed in a different GL account to that of a non-UK based material. Furthermore, a UK based customer may have a different GL account to that of an Export customer. This is configured in Account Determination.
2. ABAPers are there to essential do some bespoke development. Your integration, or interaction, with them would be when specifying the tables, fields, input fields, a simple process explanation, data mapping (if doing an interface from one system to another) etc.                 *-- Shahee
The link between SD and MM :-
1. When you create sales order in SD, all the details of the items are copied from Material master of MM.
2. MRP and availibility check related data is also taken from MM although you control this data in SD also.
3. While you create inbound/outbound delivery with reference to a sales order,the shipping point determination takes place with the help of the loading group, plant data, shipping conditions etc. This also refers to Material Master.
4. The material which you are entering in a sales order must be extended to the sales area of your sales order/customer otherwise you cannot transact with this material.
There are many such links between SD and MM.
Now the link between SD and FI :-
1. Whenever you create a delivery with reference to a sales order, goods movement takes place in the bacgground. eg. In case of standard sales order, you create an outbound goods delivery to the customer.
Here movement 601 takes place. This movement is configured in MM. Also, this movement hits some G/L account in FI. Every such movement of good s hits some G/L account.
2. The accounts posting in FI is done with reference to the billing documents (invoice, debit note, credit note etc) created in SD. Thus this is a link between SD and FI
3. Tax determination: In case of a tax determination also, there is a direct link between SD and MM
SD Integration points with other modules

To create a sales order we need purchase order number and custmer number. Before that, to create a purchase order we need to have material no, vendor no.
To create vendor tcode is
xk01(create), xk02(change) , xk03(display)
Tables are lfa1.
To create custmer tcode is xd01, xd02, xd03.
Table is kna1.
After creating sales order using this no we can create delivery note tcode is vl01.

Capacity Leveling vs. Plant Maintenance

What is the difference between Capacity Leveling Planning Tables (CM21, 22, 27,28,31,23) and Plant Maintenance Planning Tables (CM33, 34, 30, 24)?
In what type of scenario would I want to use either one? What would the end result of utilizing these tables be?

Hi
Mark the control key for generating capacity requirement.
Give the formula SAP008 in Work Center Capacity Tab.
Use CM01 to check Capacity Planning
Use CM22 for Capcity Levelling.
Explore these options

Contracts in Plant Maintenance

How can i handle contracts in plant maintenance?
What TCodes should i use?

Dear
1.     Select the operation overview of the order.
If you want to assign an entire order to an external company, you must create an order for this that only contains one operation.
2.     Enter the control key for the operations or sub-operations that you want to assign to an external company. Differentiate between external processing without service specifications and external processing with service specifications.
If the Externally processed operation indicator has been set in the External processing field in Customizing for the control key used, a purchase requisition is triggered automatically by the system.
If the Res/PReq indicator has been set in Customizing for Functions and Settings for Order Types  Define Change Docs, Collective Purc. Req. Indicator, Operation No. Interval, the purchase requisition is triggered immediately. If the indicator is not set, the purchase requisition is not automatically triggered when the order is released.
If you only decide later that an operation should be processed externally and the Res/PReq indicator is not set, you can use the Activate res./purch.req. function to trigger the purchase requisitions. This function can only be executed once in the order. Subsequently, all purchase requisitions are always triggered immediately.
3.     Select the operations or sub-operations.
4.     Select the detail screen for external processing.
The External Processing Operation screen appears for the first operation or sub-operation selected.
5.     Enter the following data on this screen:
- For operations which you want to create without service specifications, you can, for example, enter components here.
- For operations which you want to create with service specifications, enter the services here.
In addition, make all the entries for the procurement options.
You have the option of defining the data for external processing in the form of default value profiles in Customizing by choosing Functions and Settings for Order Types  Create Default Value Profiles for External Processing. These profiles are dependent on user, plant and order types. They simplify data entry for external procurement of materials and services.
If no default values are available in the system, it automatically calls up the external processing screen using the default value profile, so that you can enter the missing data.
6.     Choose Next operation to process the external processing data for the next operation or sub-operation.
When you have processed all the selected operations and sub-operations, the operation overview screen reappears.
7.     Save the order.
At the point defined in Customizing, the system creates purchase requisitions. You can find the number of the purchase requisition for the operation on the actual data screen for the operation or sub-operation.

Standard Web service for Plant maintenance

Hi Gurus,
I am new to Web services.Could you plese let me know is there any standard web services for Plant maintenance?
Thanks & Regards
Bhuvana

Hi,
This is the mail which i got from Client.
We have a prospect wanting to see a proof of concept (and pay for it) of SAP -GIS integration using web services. No specific requirement. Fetch a bunch of work orders from SAP using web service and display on a map - can be the POC.
Please review the attached doc. Figure out whether any standard web service is available, if not a BAPI can be converted to web service quickly.
Attchment contains Utilizing State oriented Communications
for Web Services based on BAPI With Microsoft Visual Studio
2005.U can check it in Google with the same name.
They just asked about is there any Standard web services available for Plant maintenance.

Forum for Plant Maintenance

Dear All,
Which is the forum in which i can post my Plant Maintenance Querries is it Enterprise Asset Management or Product Life cycle management.
U r help needed.
Regards,
Rashmi

Hi
Very good question.
Its a fact that when we are confused we tend to reply that this is a very good question. Before answering your question I would like you yo know the basic functionalities of these SAP solutions. Product Life Cycle Management (PLM) is an end to end solution from concept of an asset upto its end of lifecycle i,e decommisioning. Enterprise asset management is an integral component of PLM. PLM supports selection ,purchase, installation of equipment, tracking the cost of assets, access drawings manuals parts info over internet. It also supports mobile business so that you can access plant information over PDAs and other mobile devices.
EAM typically addresses and manage notifications, work orders, measurement documents, requisitions, purchase orders, and service entry sheets among many other things.
It is a fact that PLM supports much more than the standard asset management concept.
With this background in mind we can assume that any issues related with typical asset related queries may be posted in Enterprise asset management. Queries that relate to features such as DMS, Mobile asset management etc may be posted in Product Life Cycle Management.
I would invite moderators attention to this explanation
Hope this explanation helps. Reward suitably if found helpful

Plant Maintenance Business Content - MTTR and MTBR

Greetings to all,
Was wondering whether anyone has any idea which standard (international?) SAP is following, when developing formulas to calculate MTBR (Mean Time Between Repair) and MTTR (Mean Time To Repair) in the Plant Maintenance Business Contents.
It will be great help, if there is an indication on this!
Thks!

Hi,
Yes, I have seen those notes. But was wondering whether there's a specific international standard that was followed.
Thks!
