On demand database maintenance order

Dear Experts,We have a prod database (databaseA)at 45GB and it contains tables for attachments(documents, images etc) from 7 companies/affiliates. The compressed full backup size is at 35.5 GB. We also maintain diff and trn backups that run on sched. We have fewer restore points due to storage constraint.A new database (databaseB) has been created in another server to house the other 6 companies' data, hence we can now delete other companies' data/records from this databaseA which leave it with only one company data. I think it is an occasion in which running DBCC shrinkdatabase would be legal so that the OS could reclaim the space.Sorry for that long overview, but my question is about the proper order of database maintenance. Is the following correct? Or will it create performance issues? Are each step necessary? Kindly enlighten me....

You can create a service order through sales order creation using action item of quality notification.
Define the function module into action box's item in configuration
SPRO > Quality Management > Quality Notifications > Notification Processing > Additional Notification Functions > Define Action Box > Define Functions for the Action Box
SAP sample function module is 'QM06_FM_TASK_RMA_ORDER_CREATE' for creation of repair order.
When you select the action item at quality notification, the pop-up screen to create a sales order will be shown.
Also you can assign a service item(=service material) to create a service order at the same time.
If you want to create a maintenance order(not service order), you have to use the maintenance notification.
Because only maintenance notification can have the technical object like equipment, functional location.

Database maintenance for sqlserver database to improve performance

In our company sqlserver 2008 R2 is working as a project server database.
I want to know commands for database maintenance.
Please let me know all command in order which i need to run in sqlserver for database maintenance.
because i want to increase performance of projectserver 2010.

Hi John.Eddie,
For increasing SQL Server performance, you can do full daily backup, transaction log backups, check database integrity, rebuild index and update statistics in database maintenance plan.
However, you need to note that running "Shrink Database", it causes disk and as well as index fragmentation and leads to performance issues.
To ensure your database stays healthy and available, there are a few "'must do" tasks. For example:
1.Remove excessive transaction log file fragmentation.
2.Set auto-growth correctly.
3.Turn off any scheduled shrink operations.
4.Turn on AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS and AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS, plus have a regular process in place to update statistics.
5.Have a regular process to run DBCC CHECKDB, take full database backups, plus differential and log backups for point-in-time recovery.
For more information about database maintenance, you can review the following article.

Creating maintenance order from enhancement IMRC001

Hi
I am trying to create a maintenance order from the customer exit EXIT_SAPLIMR0_001 inside enhancement IMRC001. For order creation i have invoked the BAPIs BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN and bapi_transaction_commit subsequently to write changes to the database. But once the control returns from main program I receive an express message which states
Update was terminated
System ID....   ECD
Client.......   400
User.....   SSEN
Transaction..   CO11N
Update key...   48DCDEE6DD6E01AFE1008000093362E1
Generated....   15.10.2008, 09:11:42
Completed....   15.10.2008, 09:11:43
Error Info...   00 671: ABAP/4 processor: SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC
Can any of you help me on this. I am doubtful on commiting from a include; but in the doc for this enhancement it is mentioned that we can create order from it. Is there any other way to do this?
Thanks in advance
Sudip

udip,
I think there's some sample code with this user-exit..
Have a look at that, it may give some pointers...
Also try without the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.

Field "User responsible" in Maintenance Order.

Hello experts,
I am looking for the field "User Responsible" in a Plant Maintenance Order, but I can't find it!
If i go to table COAS and type in a PM order, the field name is "VERAA USER".
Where is this field when I am creating a PM Order?
Can this be manually populated or is it automatically populated by other means?
Thanks!
Gilberto Gallardo

Dear Gilberto Gallardo,
COAS is a Database View and not a table. It is based on table AUFK which is populated from transaction KO01 Create Internal Order or from Easy Access Accounting -> Controlling -> Internal Orders -> master data -> Special functions -> order -> Create and other related transactions for controlling

Object RESB within Critical Area - creating Maintenance Order

Hi All,
We are getting warning message while creating Maintenance Order. It says " Object RESB within Critical Area". After checking we found that 90% of the number range for reservation documents have been consumed and it is maintained in settings that the warning will come up when number range enters last 10%.
we have changed this setting to 5% but still the issue is not resolved. We are still facing the same warning message.
Kindly guide.
Regards
DM

DM,
This maybe due to the buffering of the number range numbers on the application servers.once these numbers are exhausted and new block of numbers are picked up from the database server this should go off. Ideally you may want to adjust to a new number range so that this warning message doesn't irritate the end users.

Automatic creation of service notification for maintenance order

Then i create maintenance order for service and attached service master. System generated PR. Where document type to be given to get SR instead of PR.
Kindly explain

sathish. R

Hi,
Please check the indicatorsin Actual cost/cost sales and Valid recevivers in settlement profile.
If for cost center : 1 settlement optional is maintained in valid recevivers and also for order
and in actual cost/ cost sales: indicator to be settled in full is selected.
Also check Allocation structure too if you have assigned the valid allocation structure.
**check if you have assigned the valid settlement profile to order types.
*****Most important after doing all these settings you need to create new order. for same order you will not get the automatic settlement rule
Hope this helps.

Creation of Sub Contracting PO through Maintenance Order

Dear All,
I am aware of the sub contracting indicator to be cliked in the maintenance order in order for the system to generate a Sub Contracting PO through Maintenance Order. However I am unable to see this indicator in maintenance order fields.
Is there anything that I am missing in customising settings or is this related to activation of any business function sets.
I am working in ECC 6.0 EhP 5.0.
Need your help / inputs so as to resolve my issue.
Thanks in advance.
JK

Hi Tehsin,
Thanks for ur response.
However this is something I am aware of. The settings suggested by you will automatically generate a PR with Account Assignemnt Category as 'Order' (F) & Item Category as 'Service' (D) combination.
I am looking for the auto generation of PR through the maintenance order with Account Assignemnt Category as 'Order' (F) & Item Category as 'Sub Contracting' (L) combination.
Looking forward to hear from all.
Thanks in advance

Open purchase order only with open production or maintenance order

Hi everyone,
I am looking for a report that would show open purchase order but only linked to open orders (I am here talking about the source production or maintenance order in the Account Assignement tab).
I have already checked transactions ME2L and ME2N but these do not seem helpfull.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind Regards,
Olivier

Use ME2K and enter the A/C category faor Production order and Maintenance order
make sure that Selection parameter should be selected as open GR and if you want to make your own filter than
go to SPRO-MM-Purchaisng-reporting-selection parameter-define sel parameter
here you can create your own and use that for report.

Sort field in maintenance order

Hello;
I want to make sort field in maintenance order as a mandatory field. But if I make it as a mandatory field, system still allows me to save the order as long as I have not clicked 'Location' tab. So there is no positive control over this field. May I know, how do I achieve this? I have even tried to put order type as the influencing field but it does not help.
Points assured.
Regards
Hemant

Hello Hemant,
access to the SAP service marketplace via www.service.sap.com to create an OSS message. Choose link "product errors". Therefore you need an OSS user and you have to be authorized to create OSS messages.
To create an user-exit, you have to go to transaction CMOD. There you have to create a project and assign the enhancement you want to use (I'm not really sure, but I think IWO10009 is the correct one in your case - you can search the user-exits via transaction SMOD - search for IWO*).
After this you have to implement your coding and then you have to activate the project.
The implementation of the user-exit should be done by an ABAP developer.
By the way - I've had a look at the OSS. There's note 768576.
Reason and Prerequisites
The problem is caused by a missing function.
Influences set via field selection will only become effective if a screen with the corresponding fields is processed. You must also refer to the documentation defined in the corresponding Customizing area. For the location & account assignment data, no additional check is (such as with the general order header data) is realised during the saving.
Prerequisite
Via field selection you declared fields of the location & account assignment data as mandatory field, and no screen that contains these fields was passed.
Solution
By means of the example code, you must implement a corresponding mandatory field check via customer enhancement IWO10009 at the time of the order backup.
1. Create subroutine Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW in program SAPMILA0. It would be best if you create an own include ZMILA0F1 for this so that you will not have any unnecessary expenditure for future Support Packages (via Transaction SE80).
FORM Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_HEADER'
       IMPORTING
                 CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD.
CALL FUNCTION 'CO_IH_GET_ILOA'
       EXPORTING
                 CAUFVD_IMP = CAUFVD
       IMPORTING
                ILOA_WA    = ILOA.
ENDFORM.                    "Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW
2. Create the following source code in customer enhancement IWO10009:
STATICS: XTFAWF LIKE TFAWF OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
tables: tfawf.
DATA: wa_screen    LIKE screen.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: 'A'.
perform Z_IWO10009_GET_DATA_FOR_FAW(SAPMILA0).
if xtfawf[] is initial.
    SELECT * FROM TFAWF INTO TABLE XTFAWF
             WHERE PROG = 'SAPMILA0'.
endif.
LOOP AT XTFAWF WHERE CUST_M = 'X'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'FIELD_SELECTION_INFLUENCE'
         EXPORTING
              dynprogruppe = '7   '
              mode        = 'C'
              modulpool    = 'SAPMILA0'
              fieldname    = XTFAWF-MFELD
         IMPORTING
              input        = wa_screen-input
              output      = wa_screen-output
              active      = wa_screen-active
              required    = wa_screen-required
              intensified = wa_screen-intensified
              invisible    = wa_screen-invisible
         EXCEPTIONS
              OTHERS      = 1.
    if wa_screen-required = 1.
      clear lv_mfeld.
      lv_mfeld = 'CAUFVD_IMP-'.
      case XTFAWF-MFELD.
        when 'ILOA-AUFNR'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IAUFNR'.
        when 'ILOA-KOKRS'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IKOKRS'.
        when 'ILOA-BUKRS'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IBUKRS'.
        when 'ILOA-GSBER'.
          lv_mfeld+11 = 'IGSBER'.
        when 'RILA0-ARBPL'.
          lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld6.
        when others.
          lv_mfeld11 = xtfawf-mfeld5.
      endcase.
      ASSIGN (lv_mfeld) TO IS INITIAL.
        Message E461(IW)
        with 'Mussfelder der Standort&Kontierungsdaten füllen'.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
    endif.
endloop.
endif.
3. Activate the changes
Correspondingly you can implement this solution also for the order release, for example, via customer enhancement IWO10002.
Bear in mind that this is a source code proposal. It might be useful or necessary to adjust this source code to special applications.
Best regards

Hi,
The IMG customizing will have greater priority than the screen table controls (also specific program logic can supersede the table controls). Check the customizing for service screen at following path:

How to create a PR for each Maintenance Order

Dear All,
Please guide me how to create a PR for each Maintenance Order.
I test on Ides, I have some Maintenance Orders, all of them require the same stock material. When I run MRP, system always create one PR for all requirements. I don't know how to change.
Regards,
QuangDD

Hi,
As you planning for Stock Items, by running MRP, system will create single PR only. If it is non stock items, then it would be possible to create different PR based on Orders.
