Maintenance Plant

Hi,
I have a cement plant which has maintenance team. It has small power generation plant also. The maintenance is done by the cement plant staff. How can I configure it in SAP?
Best Regards,
Khalil

Hi,
I am not aware of the pros but i can tell that we can reduce the complexity in SAP and as you have said your organisation structure and as per your organisation structure we can map in that way in SAP . Here your MPP of cement would be planning the maintenance tasks for MPs for cement and power.The MPs would contain the equipments and work centers. You can have a separate work center for power or use the work center of cement for carrying out maintenance tasks in power..

More than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.?

hi Friends, can we have more than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.Is there any advantage or disadvantage of this condition.?

Hi,
     You can have Maintenance Planning Plant & Maintenance Plant in any of the follwing ratios, i.e., 1:1 / 1:n / n:1. Actually in Maintenance, there can be electrical & mechanical maintenance.
          In the case of 1:1 relation, all the maintenance activities (Electrical & Mechanical) will be planned by single Maintenance Planning Plant for single Maintenance Plant.
        In case of 1:n, single maintenance planning plant will do the plaaning of maintenance activities for all the maintenance plants.
      In case of n:1, electrical activity will be planned by one Maintenance planning plant & mechanical activities by another planning plant for a single Maintenance plant.
      Defining Maintenance planning plant & maintenance plant in different relations will help us in generating different kind of reports.
I am looking forward your reply.

FM or BAPI to change Maintenance plant and Planning Plant for an equipment

Hi Experts,
I need to change the Maintenance plant and Planning Plant for an equipment. Is there FM or BAPI available for the same?
Thanks,
Peri.

what doesn't it do the same ? it contains planning plant and maintenance plant which you can update ??
if you expect that SAP delivers custom functions for every possible question a developer has you can better search for an other job. SAP makes generic functions and you can use them for you're own sollutions.
it is also expected that you try to work things out for you're own sollution.
you can find sample code quickly enough if you search where the function is used
like RISTEQ01
kind regards

BAPI to change maintenance plant on Equipment

Hi everyone,
Is there a BAPI which changes the maintenance plant on the equipment. I tried both
BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY and
BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE unsuccessfully.
If any of you have an idea of any BAPI which does the same or if the plant can be changed with the above BAPI's please help.
Thanks
Aneesh

Hi Aneesh,
When using BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY are you populating with BAPI_ILOA-MAINTPLANT = "Your value" as well as BAPI_ILOA_X-MAINTPLANT = 'X'
Don't forget to call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT if you have no errors in your return table as well.
Kind Regards,
Richard.

Planning plant is different from maintenance plant

Hi,
For my client, Maintenance planning is done at head office which located at different place and actual maintenance done at another location (maintenance plant).
What is the effect if planning plant is different from maintenance plant?
Can somebody help me.
Thanks in adv.
R.D.I

Hi
As per the feedback given by you no need to create a separate planning plant. You create only one plant & planning plant will be the same plant only. You can differentiate the head office & the local office by different planner groups. If you create a different planning plant(head office) aslo there wont be any problem(if you wont restrict by authorisation). Plannig plant functionality is used in case of multiple plants whose maintenace is carried out by a single plant(plannig plant) so that it can plan the material requirement of all the plants apart from functionality of authorisation control & reporting. I think in your case you can go ahead with single plant.

Maintenance plant in organisation structure & equipement master

Hi Gurus
There is small confusion about fixing the organisation structure.In fact the client is supplying thier asset (equipment) to customers and charging rental. The Nurses are mainly supplying the equipment and then doing periodic visit, trouble shoot. Nurses spreads all over the country and they do service according to patinet location. If any issues on equipment technicians are solving. The nureses are assigning by delegator for work , however the periodic visit is planning and doing by nureses. About the repairing the workshop technicians by receiving from the client stores.
When considering to this all points I dont thing we need to insert a maintenance plant in master data, organisation structure. Is it right? I think there will be 3 planner groups delegator , nurses and workshop. Also the work center is not required since we track visits are tracking by sales and just notifcation is information purpose we decided to use. Is it right?
Regards
Thenna

To identify the equipments based on location, you have to create the maintenance plant & location, assign the location to maintenance plant.
Create one maintenance plant (planning plant also same) & create work centers according to that. I guess, work centers are required as they are doing service to the patients.

Creating Equipment With Same Equipment No. In Different Maintenance Plant

Dear Gurus,
Is it possible to create equipment with same equipment No. (external Numbering) in different maintenance plant of same company code?
We have 2 plants, plant 1000 & plant 1100 & the geographlocal locations are different. These 2 manufacturing plants belong to same company code. We have implemented plant maintenance system for plant 1000 & now want to roll out the same system at plant 1100. In plant 1000 we have equipment with equipment No. M323 (External Number). Now we want to create equipment with same no. in plant 1100. How can this be done? or is it necessary to have different no.? please advice.
Regards,
Abhijit Khandekar

Dear Friend
As Equipment master data is client specific, you cannot have the same equipment number for same category of equipment, though plants are different.
Yes, you can do it if equipment categories are different.
I hope this will resolve your query if not let me know.

Error when trying to change maintenance plant of a PM equipment

We need to change the maintenance and planning plant of an equipment in order to specify his new location when it is transfered. Although it is described as a normal procedure in SAP help, we receive error message IO 231 saying that "maintenance plant A and planning plant B are in different controlling areas" and SAP does not let us proceed with the plant change ! Did anybody have the same experience ? I believe that it is probably a customizing setting somewhere in FI-CO ! Any help is welcome.

Hi Thyagarajan,
here is what you find in SAP help:
Changing the Maintenance Plant
Prerequisites
It may be necessary to change the maintenance plant for a piece of equipment. For example when it is to be installed at a functional location which is in another maintenance plant, or when it is to be used in another maintenance plant from now on.
However, you can only change the maintenance plant for a piece of equipment, when the piece of equipment is no longer installed at a functional location.
Changing a maintenance plant has the following consequences:
-The system automatically clears all fields of the master record that are dependent on the maintenance plant.
-A change of maintenance plant can result in a change of company code, which causes the system to clear all fields that are dependent on the company code.
-The company code change can produce a change in the controlling area, which means that the system clears all fields dependent on the controlling area.
So for me, it is clear that having plants in different controlling areas should not prevent us from changing the equipment maintenance plant.

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

Measuring points finding by maintenance plant

Dear Expert,
Is there any way to find the list of measuring points or documents searching by maintenance plant?
Thanks & regards,
TusharA

Hi Tushar,
Run the transaction IE07 : Multi-level Equipment List
Select the dynamic selection displayed at application bar. Select the plant from PM Order node displayed in dynamic list. Copy the same for selction. Enter the plant number in selection screen.
Also tick mark only 'Measuring Point' from filter screen.
This way you can get the all mesuring points from selected plant.
Same way you can get the list of measuring documents by selecting from filter screen.

Change in Maintenance plant

Hi experts can u brief me what is the effect of changing the maintenance plant in the equipment in plant maintenance of SAP?

You are moving the Equipment to another organizational unit.
Maintnenance plant of the Functional locaiton should also be changed (same as the Equipment).
After chaning the plant, the equipment is a technical object of your current plant.
