IS-R and Plant Maintenance

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone had used Plant maintenance in an IS-R environment. Did you use articles or materials for the parts that were assigned to work orders? Did you use MPN numbers for these parts?
I have found some conflicting info regarding this so I am looking for anyone who has implemented....
thanks in advance...

Dear Bob Moore,
PM module is not relevant for IS-Retail business scenarios. Moreover, SAP has not tested PM module functions with articles.
Still if your business demands, then you can explore and map PM business scenarios using SAP Retail with materials.
MPN management functionality not supported in SAP Retail.

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.

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

Scheduling and external scheduling in plant maintenance

hi expert ,
can you explain the scheduling in plant maintenance step by step beside external scheduling and how to made the external scheduling in IDS system also i read the sap help links about external scheduling and add the external scheduling in the order type pm01 and add the:
Function Module PM_ORDER_EXTERN_SCHED_DIALOG in Configure Communication in the (D: For scheduling in dialog with external scheduling) should be dialog box Scheduling agreement appears after the order has been scheduled and this is not appear and information message (Link to the scheduling system could not be built) is appear.
is any configuration missing.
thanks sadin

Hi,
I understand you want to practice in IDES. But to work with external scheduling you need a third party system that performs the scheduling. The idea of this type of scheduling is that the SAP ERP system interfaces with this other system (for example Click Software). It is this interfaced system that calculates the scheduling dates and passes them back to SAP.
Without such a third party system you cannot perform external scheduling. You error does indicate that it cannot communicate with such a system:
(Link to the scheduling system could not be built)

How to read the configuration for SAP GUI elements in Plant Maintenance module from SPRO and leverage the same in NWBC for HTML.

Dear Members,
Greetings for the day!
I am working on NWBC for HTML in Plant Maintenance module.
We have configured some changes in SPRO for customizing the UI elements( like visibility, mandatory ) like tabs and fields in transactions like IW21( Create Notification).
As of now separate parallel configuration needs to be carried out in NWBC for HTML in PM module to achieve the same UI features for creating notifications and this is time consuming.
Is there any way to read the configuration done in SPRO for the SAP GUI's and leverage the same in NWBC for HTML.
Appreciate your time in responding to this.
Thanks & Regards,
Ram.

This configuration is weird little bit. There is MatchExpression /app1 and MatchExpression /app2 and at the same time two <Location /weblogic> sections. Are you sure you understand what that configuration stands for?
Try something like this ...
<Location /app1>
SetHandler weblogic-handler
WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7003,127.0.0.1:7005,127.0.0.1:7007,127.0.0.1:7103,127.0.0.1:7104

WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7003,127.0.0.1:7005,127.0.0.1:7007

</Location>
where /app1 and /app2 are contexts of your weblogic applications.

There are many new functionalities available in this version.
Earlier version can be accessed from SAP GUI, but the latest one can be accessed from Portal/NWBC.
DMS side many notes have to be applied as you will be instaling EHP4.0 as part of the upgrade.
ECM side some standard reports are missing in PLM 7.0, which were available in ECC6.0.

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!

Plant Maintenance and ECS SRM

I've been asked to investigate the feasibility and steps involved in integrating Plant Maintenance to SRM.
I've looked at the standrard documentation and it appears that this is pretty straightforward.
Can anyone give me any pointers on the following:
1) What BAPIs etc are used to transfer the PReq from the backend to SRM.
2)What are the require configuration settings ?
3)Are there any attributes that need to be maintained within the org plan?
Regards
Keith

Hi,
In addition to Marcin answer, you can connect your catalog directly to PM in transaction IW31 and IW32.
There is also a scenario to connect PM with SRM without external requirement configuration.
This is the "old way" and "abandonned" by SAP: please see here :
Re: EBP integration with PM and PS
Kind regards,

Plant Maintenance order and service order

Hi ,
Please let me know When we come Plant Main order and Service order.
Thanks

hi:
Customer Service is linked to Plant Maintenance module of SAP. Technically speaking SM/CS isn't a module. Primarily it uses parts of the PM and SD modules.
The PM module is used mainly for eqiopment, functional location, order, notifications, maintenance plans, etc (same as PM).
The SD module is used for billing, contracts, sales orders, etc.
The main interface between the PM and SD module is called Resource Related Billing (DP80, DP90, etc).
The Customer Service have a lot of process one of them is:
Create the notification IW51 -> create de Service Order -> create Quotation DP80 -> Modification Service Order IW32 Accept the Quotation once accept the system create automatic the sales order to copy of quotation -> and billing the sales order VF01.
Other process is:
Create the Notification IW51 -> create de Sales order -> and billing the sales order VF01.
Other Process is:
Create the notification IW51 -> create de Service Order -> create the sales order DP90 -> and billing the sales order VF01.
Other Process is:
Create a contract type WV VA41 -> create de Service Order -> create the sales order DP90 -> and billing the sales order or contract VF01.
Or
Create a sales order RA or RAS VA02 -> create de Service Order -> create the sales order DP90 -> and billing the sales order or contract VF01
