Making Activity Type Mandatory in Maintenance Plan

Hi PM Gurus,
Can someone please let me know how to make the field "Activity Type" and "Planner Group"  mandatory (Required Entry) in Maintenance Plan at screen level.
Cheers
Deepal

Hi ,
      If you do not want to go for user exit then you can also get it using transcation variants via tcode SHD0 ... for IP41 /IP02/IP42/IP43 Tcodes ..
Search this forum for steps as it was discussed many times ..

  • Activity type field in Maintenance Order

    Hi all
    My client requirement is that activity type (LARNT)should me mandatory in maintenance orders to capcture the cost with out fail.
    Could any body suggest me that when we need to do that?
    Regards

    Hi
    Since the work center is mandatory you can make the activity type mandatory for workcenter master data record in OPFA IMG
    or check in OIOPL where you can make the activity type as mandatory ,but i think it will only work once you nagivate the operation tab
    or check whether user exit order at save will be useful

  • Activity Type Mandatory in Repetitive Confirmation

    Dear guru ,
    When I run confirmation (MFBF/MF42N) i can post actual activities for a specific operation.
    I have one of this activity not relevant for controlling , itu2019s only used as statistical object for PP.
    Why the system consider the activity type as mandatory for every standard value parameters ?
    Can I have a chance to avoid that all the activities are relevant for controlling ?
    Thanks.

    Dear ,
    For the same operation i have one standard value relevant for CO and one standard value not relevant for CO.
    For the not relevant in view costing of work centre if I set no activity , in MFBF the standard value isnu2019t displayed and I cannot enter any value.
    If I set an activity in view costing of work centre the system required an activity type in MFBF.
    How can avoid in MFBF (posting actual activities view)  to enter an activity type but to confirm a quantity for a value not relevant for CO ?
    Thanks

  • Confirmation of PM activity types in Plant Maintenance or Controlling

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me if there is a possibility to Confirm activity types of PM workers on PM orders? Which transaction is used for this?
    I would like to settle indirect costs of PM Cost center to PM orders. The tracing factor in this case would be the PM activity types confirmed by the PM workers.
    However, I don't know the PM module and I don't know whether it's possible to confirm activity types using some PM T-code?
    Should I use for this purpose KB21N (enter direct activity allocation) in Controlling, or is confirmation done somewhere in PM module?
    Best wishes,
    Karol

    Hi,
    You are right...
    Confirmation of the activites are always done thorugh PM module transaction only... if i am not worng T.code IW41.. any how check the t.code otherwise consult to your PM consultant
    Only very rarely KB21N is used to rectify or to add some xtra cost
    In day to day lifr the confirmation is done by PM department not by costing department.
    As suraj written for planning activity you use KP26.
    Yah..for allocating the indirect cost to PM order where the basis of allocatio is on confirmed activity cost...this is a simple case of using costing sheet in PM order... where in Base put the activity allocation cost element which you have used in activity type master data and in over head key put % and in credit put cost center which incurrs the indirect expenditure and
    the costing sheet assign in the valuation variant of the order type of the PM order..
    Hope i am clear to you...
    IF helpful assign the points..
    Cheers

    --- Maintenance and Service Orders
    Functions and Settings for Order Types
    -Define Default Order Types for Maintenance Items

  • Making condition type mandatory for a particular po document type

    I have 2 po document type namely local po and international po. i want a particular condition type ZLCS to be picked automatically as soon as the user picks the po document type.

    Hi,
       You may check the condition technique through a new condition table with PO document type. You may proceed as below:
       You may append the standard MM condition structure to include the PO document type field (in structure KOMPAZ), with the help of abapers . Add the field to condition catalogue in the path: OLME - Conditions - Define Price Determination Process - Extend Field Catalog for Condition Tables.
        Now, you can create condition table with document type field in M/03. Maintain the condition table in the access sequence in M/07. Assign the access sequence to condition type in M/06. Include the condition type in pricing procedure. Maintain condition record for the condition type with required document type in MEK1.
        Check the procedure and revert back in case of any doubts.

  • Eliminating the use of Activity Types -- what are the impacts and risks?

    Our primary FI stakeholder wants to eliminate the use of Activity Types in our ERP 6.0 system.  He would prefer the use of cost elements and cost centers.  I know that the elimination of using Activity Types will impact our planning processes plus our ability to segregate costs within a cost center.  What else am I missing?

    Hi,
    I can't understand the idea of "eliminating the use of activity types"...
    What about direct activity allocation (based on time confirmation using activity types)? Is there no need to do so? Don't you use production orders?
    best regards, Christian

  • Activity Type at cost center

    Hi All,
    Is Activity types are used only at production cost centers or u can use for any material use in general, i mean, Say i ahve 2 machinerys, i spend bearings and oil for repairs, i called this activity as antifriction. i issue bearings and oil towards this activty to machinery cost center. now i want a report like how much cost i spend on antifriction activity for machine 1 & 2. How should i map my cost ceners to get this report. Can any body tell me what exactly activty types used for?
    Thanks in advance
    Sarayu.

    Hi
    Activity types classify the activities produced in the cost centers within a controlling area. To plan and allocate the activities, the system records quantities that are measured in activity units. Activity quantities are valuated using a price (allocation price).
    In Overhead Cost Controlling, costs based on the activity type are posted separately in fixed and variable portions. When you divide the activities of a cost center into activity types, you should consider whether the costs can be allocated effectively to the activity types.
    You can plan, allocate, and control costs either at the activity type level of a cost center, or at the cost center level.
    You can also assign the activity type of a cost center directly example: deprecitation postings.
    You can assign one activity type, multiple activity types, or no activity types to a cost center.
    I hope this helps.

  • Activity Types and Cost Centres

    Our PP is not yet live now.
    While going through the system settings, it is found that many activities (approx. 15 for indirect expenses also) are planned in the Production Cost Centres.
    However, these activities are not included in the master data of the Work Centre. Only one activity type is mentioned there for machining.
    Then, what is the purpose of other activity types planned if they are not mentioned in the Work Centre ?
    Is there any other way these activity costs will appear in the Cost report ?

    Hi,
    You are almost on the right line, activity quantities will be triggered in the  cost center report based on the routing master and through  the confirmation from the production orders.
    For the creation of the  work center - Activity Planning KP26 is required. Cost center/Activity
    where we can plan the activity quantities.
    Prior to that KP06 is required to plan the  primary cost combination of (Cost Element/Cost center/Activity Type) where we can plan the cost.
    Based on the above information we can calculate the plan price - KSPI
    Based on the confirmation from the production orders activity quantities will be updated in the center report. cost will be updated with actual postings in the cost center.
    So that you can calculate the actual activity price.
    Please look into the blog for better understanding:

  • Activity types-- urgent help

    Hello SAP Gurus,
    I need urgent help. Every production cost center has two activities labor minutes and machine minutes which have been provided by the PP guy in routing. I have defined the two activity types and have assigned planned price to them in KP26 for each cost center.
    But the planned cost of the production order is not coming when ever an order is saved. It is taking the material cost but not the planned activity cost or not showing up.
    Please tell me what have I done wrong.
    I will assign points immediately.
    Thanks,
    Elizaa

    This is the error that I am getting:
    No activity planning
    Message no. KP 209
    Diagnosis
    No activity quantities are planned in controlling area AMAD for fiscal year 2008, version 0 and the objects you have specified.
    System Response
    The SAP System cannot calculate a price if no activity quantity exists. The iterative price calculation cannot therefore be processed.
    Procedure
    Plan activity quantities and activity input in controlling area AMAD.
    Someone please please help me.

  • Set field selection in maintenance plan

    Please help me where i can set or remove the  Equipment field as a mendatory in maintenance plan in SPRO
    R.S Raghav

    Hi R.S Raghav,
    If the field Equipment is already mandatory in maintenance plan, then check in transaction OIAO, this is for notifications, (the equipment field may be made mandatory for Notification). You can make that as optional entry.
    Check and revert back with your observations.

    1. You have different status at MP Call object level , Called , Completed, Hold, fixed, skipped, Manual,
    2. For MP :- CRTD,Inactive, Locked, Deactivated etc
    3. You need to differentiate via Maintenance Plan Category
    4. Call Object Status
    5. Maintenance Plan status
    6. Time period
    etc
