Measurement reading transfer

Dear PM Experts,
can any one help me regard Measurement reading transfer. In which scenario we use this one , how its impacts on measuring point / counter and measuring document? please suggest me. i am toomuch confusing regard this one.

Hi,
Measurement reading transfer occurs when a reading at a particular measurement point also updates another or multiple other measurement points. So the reading that is used to update counter A also updates counter B (and maybe C,D,E....).
This typically occurs in an equipment structure where a reading at one level will also update the counters linked to the sub-equipments. If counter A is linked to a airplane - any flying hours recorded to counter A should also be recorded on both engines (counters B and C).
Some further details and examples in SAP Help:

  • Measurement Doc creation and Transfer: Difference field is the basis for measurement reading, why?

    Hello All
    I have  transfer supported measuring points. Whenever I create a measurement document for a measuring point, the measurement values are transferred to all its subsequest measuring points havin transfer supported check. The target measurement points gets readings from source measuing point and source document and creats a new document for this measuring point, . The measurement reading is calculated by adding the difference (as per the difference in the source document) to the last counter reading and creates the new Total reading. Can some one xplain why the system adds the difference value and calculate a total reading.
    This approach leads to discrepancy between Source and Target measurment document reading as the reading of both the source and target can be different on same time stamp and also I observed that the Target reading can be greater than the Source reading which can never be true or logically exceptable.
    How can we solve this? Is this right and standard approach.Please provide your views and solutions.
    Regards
    Murad.

    Hi Murad Ahmed,
    Examine these 2 cases.
    Case1
    A Measuring point (Counter) created for recording  Distance Traveled by a Car.
    Case2
    A measuring point (again a Counter), used to record the Fuel consumption in the Car.
    In Case1, you have a meter fitted in the Car itself, which gives the Total Distance traveled. This reading you record in the Counter Reading in IK12. The Difference field is automatically updated.
    In Case2, you read the amount of Fuel filled in the Car, from the Meter at the Gas Station, This reading you should record in the Difference Reading in IK12. Then the Counter Reading is automatically updated.
    I hope you understand, in Case1, you can not know the Difference and in Case2 You can not have the Total readings.
    About other doubts regarding Transfer of Measuring points, hope all the Measuring point invovled in the process have the same characteristics used.
    The following document might be able to help you further.

  • How to Measure file transfer speed in iChat

    hi guys, is there anyway to measure the file transfer rate ,while sending o receiving a specific file
    in iChat?

    Actually I should say that it's not a good solution to stop all other applications to measure the network
    traffic for one application, there is another problem cause even no file is during transfer the application sends and receives packets from internet and this way is not accurate to measure .

  • How to read transfer rules of transaction UCWB

    Hi experts!
    Hope you can help me with this since I have like 3 days looking for the way to read transfer rules in "Mapping" section, in transaction UCWB; in order to develop it in an Abap program.
    Is there any FM or has someone done this before ? Can anyone give me any idea on what should i do ?
    I've tried to debug but it's a complete mess ... then i've tried to trace it ... and now i'm trying to map the transfer rules that seems to be spread in various tables ...
    Please help me! I'm open to any suggestions!
    Thanks in advance.
    Dev.

    Hi,
    I 'm refering to the you get by following the next steps:
    1. In the "Process View", go to "Consolidation Functions"
    2. Then go to "Data Collection" --> "Load from Data Stream"
    3. After that, go to "Method" and double-click on one of the methods
    4. Then in the detail of the method you've selected, go to the "Mapping" tab.
    There it would appear the mappings per each characteristic of a given Infoprovider ... do you know the SAP tables where all this information is saved ?
    thanks in advance!

  • Measurement reading

    Dear Experts
    We have the scenario as explained below.
    Service Notification is created for any Customer Equipment under warranty.
    Each equipment has a unique measuring point defined.
    For every service call in the Notification measurement/counter reading is entered.
    The Measurement reading for the equipment entered in notification is used for validation of warranty.
    If we enter measuring point for Equipment not entered in notification, system is allowing to enter the measurement reading which is incorrect. As a result system is allowing to service equipments out of warranty
    How can we resolve this anomaly?
    Awaiting your valuable inputs.
    Prakash

    Dear Experts
    Notification is created for Equipment X
    The measurement reading has to be entered for equipment X through notification only not thru IK11.
    In notif the user can enter measuring point for equipment Y and enter measurement reading .
    So the notif is created for Eqpt X and measurement reading enterd is for Eqpt Y.
    The warranty of Eqpt X is checked against measurement reading of Eqpt Y.
    I hope the scenario is clear.
    Kindly suggest remedy/check

  • Measurement reading entry list

    Hi PM Experts,
    Could some one please tell me how to associate a Measurement Reading Entry List to a PM Order or a Task List. I want the users to fill in few measurement points at the completion of a work order. I can club them in to one Meas. Reading Entry List.
    But dont know how to link it to Order
    Cheers
    Deepal

    Hi Maheshwaran,
    with referance to your reply,
    If you create notification, while raising request or malfunction report, measurement document will be created. So SAP has given option to create the Measurement document from Notification.
    Once you complete the work & then while doing confirmation, maintenance people will capture the measurement reading. So in Confirmation, you can create the Measurement document.
    Whats the need to attach measurement document in order / task list?
    Thanks for the reply. Well answering your question at the end. I have few business requirement around recording measuring points associated to PM Work Flow. Inorder to cater to them in the best way I need to understand the concept and application behind Measurement Reading Entry List. Therefore I'd really appreciate if you could let me know in which cases we can/have to use entry list.
    cheers

  • Measuring Points transfer to one total measuring point

    Hi everyone,
    We would like to transfer the values of different measuring points to one global (total) measuring points. I know that it is possible to transfer one value to n measuring points but I need the opposite.
    We habe a machine with different blades (exchangebale) and would like to summarize how many time the machine cut sheets in total.
    Is there a way to do this automatically?
    Thank you for your answers.

  • Can Vbscript measure File transfer for mutliple files?

    Hi,
    Can VBscript able to measure timing for multiple files transfer using WinActivate or other option?
    Example:
    copy C:\Single 3GB file to D:\
    copy C:\Single 5GB file to D:\

    robocopy is using msdos to do transfer both files to D:\ and robocopy log file will have the duration of the file copy.
    What I need to know is using vbscript to do in Windows for below task.
    Robocopy does not use DOS, it is a Windows command.
    Why does this need to be done using VBScript? If you really have to, you can either just use VBScript to launch Robocopy or you can use the method jrv mentioned up in the first post.

  • Measurement reading calculation

    Dear Experts,
    For an equipment we have assigned some three measurement point counters . We want to add a fourth counter whose values to be calculated automatically based on the value of the other three counters . Is it possible through standard SAP function or to be done through some enhancement ?

    hi
    Just Check  your fourth counter in IK08 ,In "Transfer of " field mention one of the first three counters , then Update the measurement document of mentioned first three counter , You can see that fourth Counter will get updated automatically.
    But the Problem is you can Input only one counter in Transfer of field .
    In SAP Counter update automatic  takes Serial way , there is no facility for parallel updating.

  • Measure file-transfer speed?

    Hello to all of you!
    I would like to know if there's a way to monitor the speed during a file transfer (either from the internal disk to an external, or from an internal folder to another internal folder). I'm not referring to online file tranfers (eg. FTP).
    To help describe my question even more, lets say I'm transfering 5GB of data. I can see the estimated time in the progress window, but I'd like to view the speed at which the data is transfered.
    Any tips?
    Thanks a lot!

    Efthymis , It really depends on just what you want to measure.....'Benchmarking'- which is what you are trying to do is (truly) a complex art - IF you want meaningful results...there are various special-purpose tools (you CAN'T rely on the computer's/program's estimates because they tend to be sec-by-sec and don't allow for start-up,overheads, etc etc and are usually quite misleading)...)
    You WILL get different results if you transfer 100 * 1MB files compared to those you get if you xfer one 100MB file, for example.
    Most accurate test of speed is a set of known filesizes:e.g 100meg, 500meg etc, a stopwatch and a quick hand.
    For an accurate 'real life' test,include a folder containing 3 or4 real-life filesizes -e.g. a few 2kb, a few 100kb, a few 500k, a 1000k, a cpl of 5 meg, DUPE That folder a few times, place results in yet another then copy THAT somewhere whilst armed with a stopwatch
    Otherwise, as I said here, there are various tools (see versiontracker and try a few of those)
    best of luck

  • Counter reading transfer to system

    Hi Experts,
        I want to implement the counter based maintenance, wherein the counter's reading need to be read every day manually at fixed timings.
    My client is a process industry having a complex structure of Equipment having a 1000s of different counters in form of pressure gauges and temperature recorders.
    This need to be read and recorded at every morning by the respective area maintenance team. Now my quarry is,
    1)  Since it's not possible to remember the overall number of gauges and meters , which need to be read every time and there's a big chance of manual mistake/missing reading, can we have some option into system, wherein we can map these gauges and prepare a schedule so that user can check the date vise schedule and check the reading for only these counters.
    2)  Once reading has been taken manually for all the measuring points/counters , how these can be transferred into system for mass creation of  the measuring documents for these different measuring points / Counters? Is there any standard transaction available for this, instead of creating LSMW for data upload ?
    Please provide your inputs..

    Hi Dennis,
    We resemble your client and have gone through all these phases.
    1. Hope you know about Entry Lists (IK31). Segregate your  1000s of measuring points as per their schedules (frequency of reading). Suppose you came out with 12 lists. Now make 12 Maintenance plans (Notifications) each having the frequencies as cycle periods. In the Plan title give the Entry list Number and Timing of Measurement also. like "Measurements with Entry list 243, at 10:00 AM".
    The whole purpose is to remind you through a system Notification that you are supposed to take readings on the measuring points in the Entry List. Then you run IK34  and take readings for that list of measuring points.
    2, If you insist on Standard  method of recording mass measuring documents, I think i have already answered. The answer is  the Entry List. (See picture attached)
    Coming out of the standard methods (Entry List method)
    We have 2 more models in use,
    1. Module pool (Screen program) development, to upload the readings. (See picture)
    In the attached picture only a part of the screen is shown, It is a wide screen, having input fields for all types of Measuring points (About 120)
    Input Process.
    Enter all readings in the respective slots and click Save
    2.  BDC program using Excel template : This program also gives similar convenience as above, by filling the Excel sheet (See picture) and then upload through a Tcode. (I need not elaborate that in this case we will be having 12 Excel templates named after the Entry Lists having the respective measuring points already filled)
    Bottom line from my side
    The ultimate user-friendliness in this area of one-stroke uploading of mass measuring documents can not avoid the ABAP  development.
    ... And I prefer BDC  program to a  Module pool program.
    I hope you've got useful inputs.

  • Should I use Sub-Equipment Hierarchy for sub-systems (first post)?

    I am 2 months into the maintenance manager role for a fleet of Locomotives and it has been decided to use SAP PM by senior management based on a separate business arm requirements.
    I believe for this to be successful the first step is to get the structure right so that data is collected in the most logical manner.
    I intend to use SAP to schedule all maintenance tasks based on measuring points and dates of previous work orders, capture system and sub-system failure history, capture costs and parts usage and trend performance of subsystems based on their own and system level measuring points.
    I have been told that all locomotives are assigned to a single functional location within the business model. The individual locomotives themselves are assigned as separate pieces of equipment in this functional location.
    Within the individual locomotives there are a series of subsystems that have associated maintenance requirements based on time and usage and they are serial number tracked. These items are exchanged between the locomotives and the warehouse upon failure, upgrade or overhaul and include:
    AC traction Motors
    Wheelsets
    Diesel Engine
    Main Generator
    Auxiliary Generator
    Dynostarter
    Gearbox
    Compressors
    Traction motor blowers (Fans)
    Radiator fans and AC radiator fan motors
    Is it logical to put these as sub-equipment within an Equipment Hierarchy with the Locomotive being the superior equipment?
    Should notifications regarding their failure be assigned to the Superior Equipment (Locomotive) or the Sub-Equipment and what are the implications of each? If assigned to sub-systems can I still report on system reliability by "rolling up" the failures?
    Do the measuring points (e.g. kilometres) assigned to the Superior Equipment (Locomotive) accumulate to the Sub-Equipment automatically and does installation and removal from different Locomotives with different kilometres affect this? For example a traction motor in Locomotive 001 is installed from 100,000 to 360,000 locomotive kilometres and then it is installed in Locomotive 002 from 300,000 to the current 340,000 locomotive kilometres. Does SAP accumulate 300,000 kilometres of life to the traction motor sub system based on its superior equipment's measuring points?
    I have many more questions to come that I will most likely solve through experimentation and future questions, but in order to hit the ground running I would appreciate your feedback if any of you have similar experiences.
    Thanks in advance
    Glenn Sanders

    In SAP, you can define "N" no. of hierarchies for Functional Location & Equipment.
    But in the reporting, you can get the costs at Functional Location level & Equipment level at next. Its not possible to have Sub Functional Location level or Sub Equipment Level.
    Also, you have mentioned that you will interchange the Sub components between Locomotives. Also, you want to maintain those using Serial Numbers. You can define these Sub Components as Assemblies with Serial Numbers so that Equipment can be created for those combinations.
    To maintain Measuring Point for Sub Components, Equipment should be created. In SAP, you have the option to transfer the Measuring Points from One Equipment (Superior Equipment) to another Equipment (Sub Equipment).
    While interchanging the Sub Component from One Locomotive to another Locomotive, without Measurement Reading Transfer, you can dismantle & install the same.

  • Change of Equipment History - PM

    Hi,
    In SAP ECC 6.0 release note, shows as an improvement  :
    16.4.2.2 Change of Equipment History (New)
    As of SAP ECC 6.0 (SAP_APPL 600), you can make back-dated changes to the equipment history. In
    the process, the following data is taken into consideration and corrected:
    - Equipment master data and equipment history
    - Definition of the measurement reading transfer and adjustment of the corresponding measurement
    documents
    - Notifications that affect installation, removal, and exchange.
    Do someone know in which transaction i can see this ???
    Thanks,
    Dalmiro

    hi
    for changing the equipment history there are 3 phases
    1Replace the actual history with the target history
    2Create the relationships for the measurement reading transfer(automatically done by system)
    3Adjust the notifications
    for first phase you have to create a target history using IEQCM1 and replace the actual history with the target history
    there are various prequistie for this kindly refer the following links
