Order release on maintenance plan level

Hi,
Is it possible to have preventive maintenance order release on maintenance plan level instead of order type level?
Br,
Shrithar

In ECC 6.0 EHP 4 version, you have the option the setting release based on Maintenance plan.
http://help.sap.com/ERP2005_EHP_04/helpdata/EN/86/429EA7A6E945E18A09EE75D566E789/frameset.htm
From above link:
Maintenance plan not immediately released
You can set an indicator in the maintenance plan item to define that any orders created from the maintenance plan during scheduling are not released immediately. This overrides the "Set released status immediately" indicator in Customizing for the order type, if this indicator is set in Customizing.

Purchase order release only at header level?

Hello all,
does anyone knows a method or workaround to allow implementation a release strategy based on the positions
of a purchase order (like the posibilities in purchase requisition's customizing).
I can't find anything that helps further, only a customer development seems to be the solution.
The goal is, to route a workflow on position based cost center and account responsibilities.
There is only a field for PO release status in the table EKKO, not in EKPO. For the PR, there is a correspondig
field in the table EBAN.
Thanks for incoming answers!
Jens

Hi Diego,
sorry, my error! Thank you for your hint, but i can't find ad hoc the matching forum on sdn.
Yes, i'm talking about MM, in detail the customizing of
the purchasing process (procurement).

No maintenance plan has been confirmed for Order 000004024181; Follow-up ca

Hi
I try to close a list of preventive order (initiated by maintenance plan) from the transaction IW38 but the system displays the following error message
"No maintenance plan has been confirmed for Order 000004024181; Follow-up call exists
Message no. IW597"
thank you for your help

Hi,
You mean close -
>TECO???
If yes Go in IW38 select all orders ,click Enviroment Tab and you can do the TECO but that order should not have Open reservation.

How to set start of cycle/next planned date at the Maintenance Item level??

Hi All,
We are uploading a bulk of Strategy Maintenance Plans into the system. Each plan has multiple maintenance items and each maintenance item in a plan having different next due dates. Now if we set the Start of cycle at the Maintenance Plan level, then the next due dates of the maintenance items in that plan would be calculated on the basis on Start of Cycle (Common for all) and frequency as set in MPackages in an item Task list. Since each Maintenance item may have different Frequency and next due date, generating a call object while scheduling the plan correctly to satisfy at the Maintenance item level is not seeming possible.
Can someone please suggest as to how do I set the Start of cycle or say Next Planned Date or Last Scheduled date at the Maintenance Item level either through configuration or programmatically.We are working on an SAP 4.6C version.It is urgent!!!

hi
i think specifying start of the cycle for each maintenance level is not possible ,since start of the cycle refers to maintenance plan only .
for SAP standard kindly refer the following [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/94/43a968abc011d395bd00a0c93029cf/content.htm]
it is better to create one maintenance item per maintenance plan,if you want to control each maintenance item independently

How to change the main work center and work center of each operation when generating work order by maintenance plan

Dear experts,
I face a problem that system get main work center from equipment master data as a default main work center in maintenance plan when creating maintenance plan. however, if main work center in equipment is changed later, the change will not synchronize to related maintenance plan. if work order is generated from maintenance plan, main work order in order is defaulted from maintenance plan instead of updated work center in equipment.
another problem is that, for those orders generated by maintenance plan, the work centers in operations is defaulted from task list in maintenance plan. in most case, work center in task list is dummy. Actually the work is done by work center in equipment master data.
My expectation is how to auto replace the main work center and work center of operations in work order with the one in equipment master data if order is generated by maintenance plan? is there any standard configuration or enhancement/BADi that can help with this requirement?
thanks！
Wesley

Wesley,
Sorry - development is the only way.
Another option is to create a batch program that runs before your IP30 run(s) and updates any maintenance items and task lists with the correct work centres.

Maintenance plan

Dear All
Is there any possible way to schedule two maintenance item in the same maintenance plan separately. ie I have a maintenance plan with maintenance item already on schedule. Now I will add another maintenance item to this plan I want a different schedule for the new with out disturbing the present.
With Regards
Arun

No, its not possible. Scheduling can be done only at maintenance plan level.

Reversal of a maint. order which was released through a maintenance plan?

Hi All,
Is there a way to do reversal of a maintenance order that was released through a maintenance plan?
Because I do not want to process the order; as such I would like to put a reversal indicator for that order and go ahead with the next order that was called through a maintenance plan.
If YES, kindly let me know how to do it?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Thyagarajan, Thanks for the response!
When I want to skip the maintenance call object that was generated through a plan, the system gives me the following message.
"CALL CAN NO LONGER BE SKIPPED"
When I press for further help, system gives me the following message:
"Call can no longer be skipped
Message no. IP405
Diagnosis
You have tried to skip a date that has already been called.
System Response
Since maintenance call objects, for example, maintenance orders, already exist for the dates that have been called, you can no longer skip a date within the scheduling process.
Procedure
If you do not want to perform the maintenance call objects due on that date, you must reverse the orders that have been called.
You can select the maintenance call objects that have been called using the list editing functions in maintenance processing."
Which means there should be a way to reverse the order, isn't it?
May be with this message you may be able to throw some help on this.
Many thanks in advance

Change of sales order in combination with planned/released production order

Hi Guru's,
How do you deal with changes in the sales order in combination with planned orders and the scenario how to deal with release production orders?
Can you tell me the SAP scenario, technically or reports or transactions or user exits, etc?
Thank you in advance,
Eric

Here You have 2 scenarios
1. Sales order changed at planned order stage
In this case any chagne of quantity done in the sales order level will be taken care by the Planned order until it was not firmed .
In case if it was firmed for the increased qty you will get a new planned order getting created.
In case if it is reduced and if it was unfirmed it will get changed accordingly
2. Sales order changed at production order stage
if the planned order was converted to production order change we can manually changes the respective Production order util no confirmation was done to any operations..
is all this scenariors you are looking for if it is helpful let me know
thanks..

Function (or BAPI, ...) to skip calls and release calls in maintenance plan

Hi, gurus!
We need to find a function (or BAPI, ...) in order to skip a call number in a maintenance plan.
We need a function (or BAPI, ...) to release a call in a maintenance plan, too.
We could use a call-transaction to IP10, but we guess there could be problems with scroll and with pop-up warning messages.
We also thought about using IP30 but there's a problem: if there are previous calls that are not skipped, transaction IP30 releases all those previous calls and we need to skipped them.
Thanks in advance. We really appreciate your help.
Best regards,
J Madariaga

You cannot skip a call in the middle of a list of active calls - this is standard functionality.
Can you please give more info as to why you would want to do this?

Work Order - Maintenance Planning plant change

Hi Gurus,
Is there any way to change the maintenance planning plant in a created work order? We are having an issue on work orders and we need to tranfer our open work orders to another plants to solved the issue. Please me let me know if this is possible to do in SAP. And let me know how to do it in SAP.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
The start of the plan is not option as this will surely have an impact. Anyway, work around for this issue was provided and this is OK now. We will continue with the old orders untill such time they will finally be closed. No postings will be created against this old orders and if there's a need to do GR new orders will be created in new plants for the postings.
Thanks for you help,

No of levels in purchase order release more than 8

Dear All,
We have a situation where some of our purchase orders need to be approved by more than 8 people.Can any one help me in telling-> whether we can create release strategies having more than 8 levels of approvals.If yes how to do it since I could see only max of 8 levels of approvals in the release strategy configuration for purchase order(release strategy with classification).
Regards,
Feroz Choudhury

Hello,
As mentioned by Uttkarsh, It is not possible to go beyond 8 levels in release strategy.
More than 8 levels of approval is not a best practice, if your requirement still demands this explore the options of using Workflow functionalities in ECC or if approval is complex suggest SRM where you can handle n-level approval.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Release of maintenance order

Hi,all,
After releasing of maintenance order, my client's requirement is not to change any data like operation ,components by anyone.Is there any settings in standard SAP to do this or some user exit to prevent anyone to change the data but again changeable option should be there to some authorised person only.please suggest .Thanks in advance.
rgds
rajib

I thought PJ had a good solution with the user status, and only giving the authorization to remove the status to authorized users.
Unfortunately, there is nothing in the business transactions to forbid changes like operation changes.
I tried forbidding 'change' and that did nothing.
I was surprised that even the forbid 'change documents' setting didn't prevent me changing the operation control key and the system created the change documents, but then I realized there is a different status profile for operations. So this would require assigning the user status to each operation, and even that would not prevent addition of operations.
Of course, I usually advocate accountability over control. If anyone makes inappropriate changes, the system records who, what and when, so you can see who changed an operation after release.
But in the end, if that's what the customer wants.......
I think the solution would be to use user exit IWO10009 (Checks at order "save")
Check to see if the order is released, if it is then prevent user from saving unless their user ID is in a Ztable that has a maintenance view for administration. A sort of variation on TVARV.
Hope it helps

Want to restrict the Purchase order release at lower level...

Dear Friends,
The Problem i am facing is that the release strategy defined in Purchase order is such that it will be released by four authorities,
& When 4th One, The Highest authority releases the order it should not get unreleased by lower level authorities.I want to configure this.
Partially it is completed, as if Tcode me29n is used for cancel release then it is restricted by Going into
SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Purchase Order-Release Procedure for Purchase Order- Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order
& suggesting it there.into Release Indicator
But still it can get unreleased by Tcode me28.
Kindly Suggest,
Gaurav Chopra

Hi,
This is the standard like release srtetegy will not have the restriction only the release do the release . He can also should de release the document.
this can't control.

Multi-level Purchase Order Release

Hi All,
Please help me on this.
I have already tested in QAS multi-level release but the scenario is, there's only 1 Asst Manager(AM) before. So if AM release the PO/FO, then next would be the Manager and then MM Head.
How to configure in OMGS if scenario would be the following:
Scenario 1
Amount-> 600,00 Php
Document Type -> Purchase Order
Releaser would be AM(release code 08) then M(01) then MM Head(07)
Scenario 2
Amount-> 600,00 Php
Document Type -> Framework Order
Releaser would be AM(release code 09) then M(01) then MM Head(07)
Thank you.
Best regards,
Jesielle

hi, there ,
if only the PO type make the difference for your scenarios then you can use standard Charateristic 'FRG_EKKO_BSART' and define two release code given assigned into two release stratage in the same release group you are in ECC6.0
