Is traversal calls neccessary in VCS maintenance cost?
Hi all,
I'm looking at a quote for a VCS control and pondering all the maintenance costs.
I can understand it for hardware and various software options but do I really need to pay maintenance for the non-traversal call licenses?
Is that strictly neccessary in order to get support and software upgrades for my units?
Cheers!

Yes, you should purchase the maintenance for the complete product (VCS + all the licences).
Cisco could chose to not support your VCS if it was only partially covered by support and maintenance and didn't include coverage on all the installed licencing.
The same goes for TMS, and the additonal Device Licence packs - they incur an additional maintenance cost as well, and while you could just take out maintenance on just the base TMS product, if you're not paying for support for the complete product, Cisco could chose not to support it, or charge you for any time spent.
You'd have to check the fine details of the wording on the actual maintenance contract you sign up on.

Hello,
I have created a maintenance Plan. the strategy is BPMWEK. Total of 52 weeks. I have inserted one operation in the task list which is assigned to the maintenance plan with time line of 2 hours.
When i do the maintenance cost planning using tcode IP31, the system is calculating total hours as 106 instead of 104(52 weeks * 2hours). Why is it so?

i think you have scheduled the mainenance plan ,kindly check the number of call objects generated ,and compare the same with the works you have created

Check for Maintenance Cost Budgeting
Dear All,
From EHP 5, there is one button in Order create/change screen called "Check for Maintenance Cost Budgeting", but couldn't find any documentation regarding it. I want to know total functionality of that button. Can anyone help me regarding this?From Solution Browser:
Functionality Enhancements
For critical, high-value maintenance orders, it is essential for the planner to check to see if enough budget provision is available for maintaining a technical object. Based on the results, the planner can request approval for the order and the cost controller can approve the work. The budget forecast is retracted from the maintenance cost budget. Actual utilization is calculated based on past orders and work in progress.

Calling external services from maintenance plans
How to assign service packages to framework order?How the value limit is assigned in the framework order?
How to create a settlement order?Hi
I think you are looking for directly calling services (Calling Service entry Sheet) from maintenance plan.
For that you have to create a purchase order or framework order with account assignment category as U or F and item category as D. Here you can assign your services directly in frame work order.
Settlement Order you can create as normal order IW31 purpose is to capture the cost on order for all the services.
Then you can create a Maintenance plan and after scheduling a service entry sheet will be called directly from the maintenance plan as per your cycles.
Hope its as per your requirement.

In my company there is a Cost receiver defined as Profitability Segment and available in Settlement Rule. Can anyone explain, what does it mean. Are we settling out Maintenance Cost to profit Center directly or somewhere else.

Yes, you can settle a Profit Segment.
Have a look at the Settlement Profile assigned to your order type (IMG: Maintain Settlement Profiles).

Can I do plant maintenance cost planning in functional location wise?
Dear Experts,
My customer plans to prepare annual plant maintenance cost planning in "functional location" wise.
Can this be done?
If yes, what are the steps?

You could do it indirectly in ECC using a cost centre for each FLoc. You can then plan the costs in the cost centre

Dear All..,
What is the best way to capture total maintenance cost (Only material+service cost) in a single PM order.
- What if budget is mentioned in the order?
- How should be the settlements happend?
- Is it possible to capture service cost through budget and material cost just allocate to cost center without affecting the budget?
Waiting for your valuable inputs..
Thanks in advance...Hello,
You can capture total maintenance cost (Only material+service cost) in a single PM order by using the WBS element in oreder.
In this WBS Element you can maintain Activity for Only material+service cost.
- What if budget is mentioned in the order?---> You can Control it by WBS release functionality.
- How should be the settlements happend?-->Settel the Order Against the WBS
- Is it possible to capture service cost through budget and material cost just allocate to cost center without affecting the budget--Using this WBS not possible.
