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.

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.

Measuring Points for Equipment

Hi-
I have a req., where in I need to capture the Measuring Points for a given Equipment, but there might be more than one measurement points(Milage, Hours, Days etc.,) So, How should I capture them? What is the best bet?
I I do it on Equip. Master(Time Dependent) I'm thinking it will have multiple columns with same Euip.,
Is ODS the best bet?
Any idea appreciated.
Thanks,
Chandra.

Hi,
You just want to capture measuring points or you wnat to capture, measurment documents against these measuring points also?
In case of measuring point, it is a master data and hence an info object/ODS both can suit. If you want to have ODS, then you should keep Measuring point also in to the key fields..
In case of measurment documents ODS will be the best fit.
Trust this helps.

Measuring Point with some factor

Dear Gurus,
we have scenario in which we have energy meter each energy meter is created as equipment for entring their daily energy genration in kwh through measuring point
but we want to multiply daily reading by some factor like 100, 50 , 40 ,1 etc ,
i know it can be customized , and also can be used in standard and then factor can be multiply in report only
but in any way can we achieve it in standard

Armaan

Hi Armaan,
Sorry Mate, No std way of achieving this, as per my knowledge. Still you can check with other PM experts.

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.

Maintenance Order through Measuring Point

Dear all,
I want to know whether it is possible to create the maintenance order on the basis measuring point .
I know how to create the order on the basis of measuring counter.
Is there any procedure to create the maintenance Order through measuring point as done in case of counter?
kindly provide the solution for Creation of Maintenance Order using Measuring Point..

Really very thanks for the solution.
I have one more query, we can create the measuring point using the t.code IK01.As you told we have to create the measuring point with upper and lower range.
Is that we have to create 2 measuring point for upper as well as lower range or in one measuring point it is possible to accumulate both the upper and lower range.
If it is possible to accumulate both the upper and lower range in one measuring point then kindly provide the procedure.
Thanks in advance.

Measuring Points are Not displaying in mobile devices(SAP WM 6.1)

Hi Experts,
In mobile devices the measuring pints for work order not displaying. When we select the "record point" option for particular work order it should display the measuring points for that WO. But it displaying '0 measuring points'. As shown in screen shot below.
But in SAP Bach end Measuring Documents are defined for Work Order.
can any one explain :To display measuring points in mobile devices, need any extra configuration in back end? or
What functionality need to activate? How to enable this?
Thanks
Chigari

Hi Chigari
Measuring Points assigned as PRT's in backend application (SAP ECC) should be displayed in Agentry Work Manager 6.1 by standard, if their corresponding technical objects are assigned to either the Work Order header or one of the operations.
Please check if this requirement is fulfilled in your case.
There is no need to modify anything in the Configuration Portal (as far as I know).
The modification we have made is only regarding Measuring Points belonging to other Technical Objects (and still assigned as PRTs).

Functional location in Measuring Point and while creating M.plan or differe

Hi,
we found that functional location in Measuring point and M.plan functional location Measuring point are differrent, how to restrict that one ,we need automatically flow of functional location from measuring point to Maintenance plan.
--Ganesh

Hi,
If you created the Measuring Point for the selected FL, then that measuring point will be populated automatically. If you have more than one measuring point, then you can select using Possible entries option.
In this case, I think its not possible to restrict with configuration.
IPRM0004 Maintenance plan / item: Customer check for time "SAVE"
Use this user exit, while saving check for the functional location for the selected measuring point & give error message.
Use tables IMPTT to get Object Number of FL. Use IFLOT to get the FL.

How to plot power factor as a graph?

Well guys, I have an array with power factor values and I need to plot this in a graph.
My problem is because as you know, power factor has positive and negative values so when I plot I need to change my scale to get a better visual.
I was thinking about:
0
0,2
0,4
0,6
0,8
1
-0,8
-0,6
-0,4
-0,2
0
Anyone have a graph or a code that make its? Because I already tryed here a lot but never get a good solution
and I think this isn't that difficult! Thanks!

Hi EduU,
you can find your own threads by searching in your profile (just click your name) Or you could use the search function to look for "power factor graph"...
There were other possible solutions than mine, also without separating the values...

Archieving the measurement points

Hi friends
I would like to know how to archieve the measurement point . Unfortunately we have created the counter in production system without requirement. Now we want to remove the same. But we are not finding the object in SARA to remove the same.
Please help on this
Regards
Thenna

Hi
Why dont you go for Deleting for the Measurement point for Equipment or FL in change mode IE02 or IL02 then press Shift+F2
If you created any Measurement documents for above Measurement Point the first you have to Archiev the them using Object PM_IMRG.Then go for deletion of Measurement point

Measurement Point Synchronisation

I am not getting Measurement Points on the Mobile Device.
I have read several of the threads related to the replication of Measurement Points but have been unable to find the answer to my problem:
I have run the Function MAM30_041 in the backend R/3 where it selects 157 Measurement Points.
I have created a Variant in SPRO ALM_ME_GENERAL for the Measurement Points and executed RALM_ME_MEASP_FULL_DOWNLOAD_SD.
On checking table MEREP_207 in the MI there are 35 records. However, after synchronising the mobile device, I am not getting any measurement points for the technical objects to which they are assigned.
The technical object are available on the mobile device but no measurement points.
The configuration for the Scenario assigned to the user has the following settings:
Defects Recording: Defects Recording Active
Notification Type: Z1 (our own)
Meas. Recording: Measurement Recording Activated
Help please!
John Woodland

Hi John,
from your description you have two problems:
1. Not all measurement points that are configured for replication are being replicated
2. Equipment which is expected to have measurement points downloaded to the device does not have them.
Problem 1 - meas. point is configured for replication but does not come to MEREP_207 table..
The best way to understand how many meas.points are configure for replication are:
1. Put a breakpoint in RALM_ME_MEASP_FULL_DOWNLOAD_SD before the RFC call to the middleware system and check how many meas.point keys are going to be transferred.
2. Right after executing RALM_ME_MEASP_FULL_DOWNLOAD_SD check how many keys are transferred in MEREP_DELTABO.
If you see that more keys are transferred in MEREP_DELTABO that eventually make it way to MEREP_207 - that is real problem that have to be investigated and fixed. That is what I would do to investigate the reason:
1. transaction se22 to see if there any errors
2. figure out which meas. points were not replicated in MEREP_207 and execute BAPI MAMXX_041_getdetail on the backend for these meas.points. Fails/error of this BAPI is the reason why meas.point was not replicated.
Problem 2 - equipment is downloaded to the device without meas.points it references.
There can be 2 reasons why it is being downloaded without meas.points:
1. meas. point that this equipment references is not replicated in MEREP_207 because of the problem that was discussed before. Once you fixed the issue and all 137 meas.points are replicated, the problem with equipment will be solved as well.
2. equipment is referencing meas.point that is not configured for replication (variant for meas.points that you configured in MAM excluded this meas. point). To figure this out: execute MAMXX_031_getdetail for the equipment in question, check that all meas. points in table "Equipment meas. points" are within meas.point variant. If not - fix the variant and fix problem 1 to ensure that all meas.points are replicated.

Assignment of measuring point category to functional location category

Hi,
If i am not doing performance based maintenance planning for functional locations then is there any need to assign/put measuring point category to functional location category during customization ?
Regards,
Vivek

You could also use measurement points for Condition based maintenance functionality or for Capturing measurement readings not relevant for Maintenance planning. if your business process doesn't need both along with Performance based maintenance, its not required to assign the same.

Multiplication factor in measurment point/counter

Hey Gurus,
Is it possible to include multiplication factor in measuring points / counter? Like when my clients are entering the readings of energy meter they have to multiply it with some factor to get the actual reading. Is it possible in std sap or do i ve to go for development?
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
Some time back I have done the same requirement for one of my clients.
For that we have created a Z- Table and maintained the multiplication factor for that particular measuring point.When we enter the reading in measuring documnet system will check the multiplication factor in the Z- table and populate the reading.
We have used IMRC0001 user exit for this.Please ask your ABAP team to develop this, it is not much complicated.

Usage of Measuring Point : Counter for Generating Bills

Case : Client has a Power Generation Unit, from which it supplies power to customers. Meters installed at the customers premises are recorded by Client personnel. Bill is generated on the basis of meter reading.
Requirement : Can Plant Maintenance : Counters be used for bill generation? How should the process be mapped?

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.
