Measuring Point characteristics Unit

We have characteristic "KK_pressure" with measuring unit of Pascal. Currently DCS interfacing system is sending the measurement data in form of Kilopascal for pressure gauge.
Is it necessarily required to create new characteristic with measuring unit of Kilopascal for documenting the correct reading of measuring point?
Actually I want to document measuring reading sent in kilopascal with measuring point of Pascal (SI unit of pressure) characteristic unit without applying customization.
Reagrds,
Tehsin

First method:
If you want to capture only in Pascal, then try for the conversion. In ABAP code, while updatding the SAP DB, you can define that logic.
2nd Method:
Create one measuring point with Kilo Pascal & use that for Interface.

Function Modules for creation of characteristics and Measurement Points

Hello everybody
I'm new in ABAP (trainee) and especially the use of characteristics. I'd be very happy if somebody could help me :).
Can anybody out there with some experience in creating characteristics and measurement points tell me how to create them with function-modules or by changing database tables?
I'm happy about every hint and ready to give some reward points.
Best Regards,
Steffen

Upto 4 decimal point for unit of measure

hi,
We have requirement to maintain upto 4 decimal point in PO and sales order quantity for unit of measure M3. Example PO quanity 0.3902 m3, sales order quantity 2.3212 m3, SAP allow upto 3 decimal point, how to handle this 4 decimal point for unit of measure and any impact to do so ?
best rgds,

Dear Eric,
To change decimal places of Materials follow this:
IMG - SAP NetWeaver - General Settings - Check Units of Measurement
select Units of Measurement & select required Unit of Measure & set decimal places.
Hope this helps...
Give points if useful...

Measuring point and characteristics

what are the measuring points and characteristics to be created for the thermal power station , sap plant maintenance

Hi,
Its based on the equipments in Power Station & Parameters to be measured for the Equipments. For example, for Boiler, Temperature, Pressure, Water Level, etc., will be measured.
So here we need to create Characteristics for all these. For Boilers, Measuring points will be created for these characteristics.
Equipments under Thermal Power stations could be Boilers, Transformers, Electric Generators, Coal Turbines, Condensers, etc., For each equipment, there will be different critical parameters to be measured on periodical basis.
Create Measuring points for all of them.

Measuring Point during IK01 not allowing characteristics with CHAR type

Hi Experts,
Measuring Point during IK01 not allowing characteristics with CHAR type Only allows NUM,
could you anyone suggest on this.
Regards
Nitin

May i know the reason of such implementation?
You can use group code and valuation code for assigning predefined values to measuring documents.
Moreover text field can be used for assigning short text to it.

How to see class/characteristics of measuring points in list editing screen

Dear Sirs,
I have created meauring points for several functional locations.These measuring points have been assigned classes and characteristics.
How can I see these charactristics against measuring points in list edition screen(ALV Grid).
Thanks and Regards,
R N Sabat.

Hi R N Sabat,
As per my knowledge , no std SAP transaction will show you asked details, You need to go for development of this report.
Please check with your technical team to get this in to ALV report.

Auto Update of measuring point/document

Dear all,
I have one issue over here.Measuring point/document is not updating automatically after productiuon order confirmation . I tried with following steps
1) Created the equipment as test equipment -->created measuring point as a counter ---> maintain the usage value formula SAPF02 in the PRT tab . Unit of measurement for the characteristics and base unit of measure of material are same
2) Then i have assigned this eqipment as a PRT in the routing of material .
Which steps i am missing
Thanks

Hi
I had faced the same problem when I used SAPF02 then I did following changes.
Created formula like SAP_09 * PRTSTD / SAP_08
SAP_09 : Operation Qty
PRTSTD : PRT Standard Value
SAP_08: Base Qty.
Also make sure the measuring point category should me T in IK02( PRT life counter)

Raj

Measuring point/document is not updating

Dear all,
I am new in PM. I have one issue over here.Measuring point/document is not updating automatically after production order confirmation via co11n . I tried with following steps
1) Created the equipment as (P)Production resources/tools -->created measuring point as a counter ---> maintain the usage value formula SAPF02 in the PRT tab . Unit of measurement for the characteristics and base unit of measure of material are same
2) Then i have assigned this equipment as a PRT in the routing of material .
3) Production order confirmation via co11n Each unit
Which steps i am missing. if u give me steps by steps procedure to me for counter based maintenance, its helpful for me.
STILL not answered and no reply.
I am waiting for reply.
Thanks

Measuring point for Power Factor Meter

Dear All Experts,
I need to create PF meter as Measuring Point.
I have created characteristic PF without any unit of measure assigned to it since PF is a ratio.
Now if I create Measuring point using characteristic PF system does not allow me to create the same popping up message" only characterisitcs with a unit of measure can be used."
Then I created a unit as Ratio and assigned to the Characteristic PF.
Even then system does not allow me to create measuring point popping up the same message.
Please help.
Regards,
Sanjay

Hi,
You could create the Measuring Point only with the characteristics with Numeric UoM. So create the ratio with Numeric UoM & try the same.

Accepting date as a measuring point

Please guide as to how does one accept date field as an input in measuring points.Have made a characteristic with date format,yet while creating a measuring point with the said characteristic , displays an error
" Only characteristics with a Numerical format can be used "
awaiting an early reply,

Hi pshthecoolest ,
You cant declare DATE with Date format as Characteristics , as per Std SAP.
Work around will be Create Char CT04 DATE , with Numeric format with Template (8), assign appropriate unit of Measurement , that you need to create separately t code CUNI.
But above all why you required to put reading as a Date in measuring point ?

Diffrence between Measuring point and Counter

What is the difference between Measuring Point and Counter ?
-Md

Hi,
_Measuring Point_
Measuring points in the SAP System describe the physical locations at which a condition is described, (for example, Temparature and Pressure on a Boiler ). The characteristics associated with the measuring points which record the value can only be numeric characteristic. Measuring points are located on technical objects, in other words, on pieces of equipment or functional locations. For every measuring point there should be some characteristics to measure the reading.
To enable you to differentiate more easily between the individual measuring points and provide them with a unit, you assign each measuring point to a characteristic.
The parameters like Running Hours, Temperature, Pressure etc,, on equipments can also be mapped under measuring point.
Counter:
A type of measuring point, where a continuous reading is recorded (e.g. Milometer). In case the measuring point is a counter, it needs to be defined likewise.
Counter readings are taken at counters at particular intervals and in particular measurement units.
For Example, counter readings for kilometers driven or electricity used

Measuring Point for Tools and Die Maintenance

Dear All,
I am trying to map the following process:-
My client has 10 press machines and around 250 Dies for punching. Dies are assembled to press machines and they produce jobs by punching.
Client has an Preventive Maintenance plan for each Die in terms of number of strokes punched by an Die. for e.g PM is done after every 300000, 600000, 900000, 1200000 strokes. Estimated life is 1200000.
What they want is when production person confirms the production order say for 10000 jobs the counter of the die should increase by 10000.......and so on. When the counter reaches 300000 preventive maintenance call should be scheduled.
What i have done is created an Die as an Equipment with PRT as equipment category. Created an measuring point for that Die, assined Usage formula etc.
I have created an Maintenance plan for that die in which i have assigned the strategy (IP11) which contains the stroke cycles 300000, 600000.........etc.
Assigned the Die as a PRT to the material which is to be produced in the Routing.
When i confirm the production order the counter of the PRT increases which i can check IK13.
What i am expecting is that in IP10 system should update the counter automatically so that when the counter reaches to 300000 maintenance call wil be scheduled and order will be generated.
I would request you to please give me some input on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Rashmi

Hello Rashmi;
I have seen the screen shots & there are problems with the following:
1) Counter overflow reading
You have entered 130; keep it as- 999999 (it is the reading after which system starts counting from 0 value)
2) Formula that you have used;
You have used the formula- SAPF02; do not use this. Create you own formula with following details: SAPF99 (new formula) = SAP_20 * SAP_09
3) You have manually entered the reading for the measuring point; do not use it. System will calculate the measurement reading from PRT usage value.
CREATE a single measuring document with reading as '0'.
4) Also in CA01; you need to assign this PRT in routing with "EQUIPMENT" & not material. Also make sure that in the same screen (assignment of PRT- basic data) maintain usage value as 1 (if this is not maintained, measuring doc. will NOT be updated).
5) Now when you confirm the production order, based on number of units created; system will automatically create the measuring doc.
If there is any problem with CA01, CO01 or CO11n; ask your PP consultant to assist.
Do let me know if there is any problem in this.

Hemant

Measuring point update by production order confirmation

Hi friends,
I created a prt as equipment and assigned it to the routing. I created a production order and when i confirm the same i am getting following error as:
Document MeasUnit has a different dimension to the characteristic unit
Message no. IR071
Diagnosis
The measurement unit on creation of the measurement document must have the same dimension as the measurement unit of the characteristic of the measuring point.
In this case, the measurement unit % does not suit the character unit EA of the measuring point 103.
System Response
Processing will not be continued.
Procedure
Use the possible entries help.
Please suggest the solution.

Hello Sir(s)
i have gone through entire post for the subject related to measuring point auto update from production order confirmation. I have tried the same but i dont know what i am missing.
if i put some value like 1 or 2 and appropriate UOM then only my measuring document is being updated with the same value not with the actual confirmed quantity.. i have already maintained standard formulla in prt view.
my basic requirement is to get actual value of produced quanity as counter update. means if 20 pieces have been produced and confirmed in co11n, then counter must bhe updated with the value of confirmed quantity.
please advice what value should i put as usage in routing master to get actuall counter update.
Will Highly appreciate your quick reply.

Measuring Point & Counter

Hi PM Gurus,
Can you tell me about the performance based maitenance :
1. Measuring Point (M.P.)
2.Counter
What are the characterstic units come under the Measuring Point.is it right that only we can give upper and lower limit in M.P not in counters.Also User exit is only created for MP not for counter.
What are the basic difference between Measuring Point & Counter.
In both the cases is it necessary to select counter tick mark or only in case of counter ?Is there is any difference while generating the plan
Regards,
RC

Hi Raju,
You can do this through,
IMG - Maintenance Plan,work center, task list & PRTS - Maintenance Plan - Set maintenance plan catagories.
Here in call object column you can define which type of call object you want for your maintenance order based on this you will get the order or notification as a call object.
And rest of the things measuring point & counter that already defined in this thread.

Rip

Datatable for upper and lower limit maintained in Measuring Point.

Hi,
I am making use of user exit : IMCR0001. User exit generates maintenance order for measuring reading which are beyong the range maintained in measruing point.
I have create measuring point with characteristics as TEMPERATURE. I have maintained upper limit : 1500 C & lower limit : 1200 C.
When I check datatable IMPTT and look for upper and lower limit, it is showing me : Upper range :1.7731500000000001E03 Lower range : 1.4731500000000001E03
Why is that I can not find the actual value as 1500 and 1200 n the datatable?
In which datatable I can find these values?
Kindly help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
TOM.

Hi Tom,
These are system Generated Values, but they will be concatenated by a few Zeros, but you can always find the exact value,
I am able to see the Values correctly in my system follower by some 10-12 zero's "E"+ 02 or 03.
but can check the values
can cross check the Characteristics for the same measuring point?

Yawar Khan
