Hi
Please read SAP help you get complete deteails
in brief logistic plant created by MM thats fine. As the Plant maintenance you need to have the Maintenance plant and Maintenance planning plant.
If you consider logistic plant as Maintenance plant. for this maintenance plant you need to carryout the planning ie is thorugh maintenance plannig plant.
so you need to assing to each other in the enterprics structure.
bascially maint plant is plant where you perform the maint task and maint plan is the plan aganit the maint plant you plan the maintenance .

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

Copy Planning Plant to Sort field in Maintenance Plan

Hi All,
Is there any User Exit User exit is available to Copy Planning Plant to Sort field in Maintenance Plan.
Regds
Vinit

I think it is not possibe as the sort field in maintenance plan is a customizing field. you can not enter any value in the sort field but you in SPRO first you have to maintain the values for sort field.
The sort field in order and notification, there you can copy the planning plant or anything else as they are manual input fields

Assign Maintenance Planning Plant to Maintenance Plant

Hi All,
What is the purpose of the configuration node "Assign Maintenance Planning Plant to Maintenance Plant"?
What happens if we don't maintain this configuration?
Regards,
Devasenapathy.K

Hi ,
Maintenance Planning Plant and Planning Plant are different
In Logistics you define Plant which has to be distinguished as Maintenance Planning Plant . In these Plants you will plan for all your maintenance tasks
You can plan and created
1. Task list
2. Planning and scheduling of Maintenance Plans
3.creation of Notifcations
4. Execution of Maintenacne Orders
Maintenance Plants are also termed as Plants in which your technical objects are installed
For example, if an equipment X is installed in the Plant 0001 then Plant 0001 is called as Planning Plant and this plant on its own cannot plan for maintenance activities unless it is created as Maintenance Planning Plant
if this Plant 0001 is created as Maintenance Planning Plant, then this plant is responsible for Planning and execution of tasks for maintenance
this is where your assignment is needed, if not Maintenance and execution cannot happen
hope it is clear
thanks

Maintenance Item assignment to a Maintenance Plan

Dear Expert,
we need some help about the following scenario.
Currently we are working on preventive maintenance in SAP ECC 6.0 system. We have created several maintenance items without assignment to maintenance plans in order to use them like models: to make quickly the creation of a maintenance plan our users can choose the suitable maintenance item from a range.
In these items we have inserted only strategy and maintenance task list but we have not insert the technical object.
We carry out the following steps:
1. we run transaction IP42;
2. we insert the maintenance category and the strategy;
3. in the tab "Item" we press the button "Assign more items";
4. system runs report RIMPOS00 (Display Maintenance Item: Selection Criteria) in order to select the item to insert in the maintenance plan. In this screen the followin fields are locked (we can not change them):
- "Maint. plan cat.";
- "Maintenance strategy";
- "MaintPlan assignment" and the radio botton is set on "without".
In this way if a maintenance item has been already assigned to a maintenance plan users can not select it for the current plan.
In your opinion could we open the radio buttons for the field "MaintPlan assignment" ? Could anyone help us ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Kind regards.

Tcode for checking the Maintenance Plan

Hello,
I want the transaction code for checking the list of maintenance plan for a particular plant. I went thru tcode IP03, IP16 but could not find the option of plant there..
Kindly guide..
Regards,
Naren

Naren,
As stated above, there isn't a plant field in the maintenance plan (only maintenance item, hence the reference ot IP17)
However, it is quite common to use the maintenance plan Sort field as a plant field by customising the table settings for each plant.

Question 2
Requirement is I need to develop a report where in I need maintenance order, maintenance plan and the relevant maintenance cycle and unit. Supose an maintenance order is created for the above maintenance plan which has 2 maintenance cycle how can I identify for which maintenance cycle the order is created.

Issue in displaying Maintenance Plan Category.....

Hello,
I have created a maintenance plan category ZQ , copying PM category in the golden client, and transported it to test client. This customized plan category is not populated in the transaction IP41 in both servers, golden client and test client. whereas this value is populated in list edit(IP15) maintenance plan category. I have checked in SPRO setting also and is available.
Path of config:
spro>plant maintenance and customer service>set maintenance paln category & assign number range.
Is there anything missing?

In the configuration have you set the call object correctly. Call object must be a PM object for it to appear in IP41, but can be anything to appear in IP15.
I have replicated this and cannot find any issues - ZQ is available in both IP41 and IP15 transactions, call object used - Maintenance and Service orders

How to compute Maintenance Plan's Plan Date

Dear Gurus,
I would like to request help from you. I have a problem wherein I would like to know how is the Maintenance Plan's Plan Date is computed.
Below is the parameters of the Maintenance Plan:
cycle = 1500
offset = 1478
annual estimate = 5070
first meas reading = 22.5
Start of cycle is = Jun 16, 2011
The plan date computed is = Sept 7, 2011
Please let me know if there are other information needed.
I hope you can share your knowledge on my problem. Thank you.

Hi,
Please note that for Plant date calculate in Counter Based Plans system takes the below into preference for calculation :-
1. Start of Counter reading value
2. Date of Last counter reading udpate ..
If you maintain offset then system first plans the offset then starts the cycle
If ur annual estimate is 5070 , if scheduling is done by time then daily activity is 5070/365 = 13.89 round to 14
Now if your start of counter reading value is 0KM
And if your date of last counter reading is :- 2/3/2012
Then your first planned date would be based on the offset :- 1478 -22.5 = 1455.5 /daily activity =1455.5/14 =104days
So counting 104days from 2/3/2012 you would getting your First Plan date ..
If u put call horizon as 100% then it will be in HOLD status

PRT- Maintenance Plan

Hi Experts,
Here is my Issue ,
We have Created Maintenance plan for PRT Equipment - for that Measuring point in counter over readg 500 pieces and Annual Estimate also 500 pieces .our Maintenance Package is every 200 cycle.BY confirming the production order exceeds the 200 pieces, the maintenance order also created by measuring document, in this juncture my doubt is , how to maintain the tool life and we wants the tool life is max of 500 pieces only , after exceeding the production order qty 500 pieces , the system will not allow to make production order confermation for that PRT Equipment, what is the settings for that,?
For Example a Planner m/c is Created by M- categary ( plant maintenance) , but the tool in which is used in planner m/c can be created P- categary ( PRT) . is it Right?
Tool -life only for 500 pieces , in that how to set for Mainetanacec package? instead of 200 pieces,can we assign 500 pieces?
ok If we set 500 in M.package , mainetance plan will be created and say tool is to be replaced, based on the plan we replace the tool and we instal new tool for the planner m/c. now can we create new PRT equipmnet- tool , for the planner m/c ? , For the new TOOL -PRT equipment , can we create new plan for that ? is it Right means what about old plan?
With Regards
SM.Charles Edwin

HI
sam,
As per ur requirment My understadnding is wirtten here-
1. First off, Creat all Tools as PRT Equipment... because in this way only u can generate maintenance plan for them and can perform maintenance.
2. For track of PRT Usage or Life u have to define a Measuring Point in PRT (Equipment). Whenever production order get confirm a measuring doucment will be posted...
in the Measuring point u can see last entered measurement reading that will reflect usage of PRT.
3. U have to assign a Maintenance Plan in PRT ( Equipment)
When PRT Usage exeeds certain level..(after confirmation of production order) Maintenace call object would be generated and subsequent maintenance can be carried out.
4. Besides all these we can not block usage of PRT in Production order.
5. PRT Must be assigned in Routing ..other wise it won;t work.
6. so prequesties for PRT Usage and Maintenance is
create Measuring point and a Performance Based Maintenance Plan. and assign it in PRT(Equipment).
7. in this case don't create PRT as a Material.
If Still in Doubt please ask.
Regards,
Amit kushwaha
