Planner group/Main WorkCtr

Hi All
While creating notification in Plant Maintenance I have observed in responisbilities both planner group and Main WorkCtr suffixes are same. For the suffix of Planner group is representing as "key identification for planning plant" and suffix of Main WorkCtr representing as "Key uniquely identifying a plant"
I couldn't able to find the difference between these two why because the value in the filed is same in SAP screen. Could you pls help me out on these....?
Srinvas

Hi Srinivas,
There are two things
1.Maintenace Work Center/ Plant
and other is
Planner Group/ Plant( Planning Plant)
In Case Of Planner Group,It is the Planning Plant which is referred.This Plant Is reponsible for Planning Activites for carring out Maintenance Task. And Planner group is defined under the planning Plant
And In Case Of Work Center , It is Plant within the Organization.

Planner group vs maintenance work centre?

hi
in IDES server generally planner group and maintenance work centre are same.can they be different if so then please
explain with example.
regards
sanjay

Hi,
Work Center - represents a unit that is capable of performing work. It can be a group of person, equipment and special resources used to MANAGE the work order and/or PERFORM work order operations during maintenance execution. It can be used to model a resource availability within the organisation. There are 2 types, Main Work Center (responsible for overall managemetn of the work) and Operational Work Center (executes the operation activities).
Planner Group - represents a person or group of persons responsible for the PLANNING and PROCESSING of several maintenance Work Orders.

In the existing analysis of Planner group using MCI4, is it possible to add Notification type in the drill down.

Thanks in advance

Authorization issue in Maintenance Planner groups

Hi Gurus,
I have created 5 Planner groups to a plant in SPRO -> Plant maintenance and Customer Service -> Master Data in Plant maintenance and Customer Service -> Technical Objects -> General data -> Define Planner groups.
When one of the planner group tried to open IL03 , to display a functional location. it is giving me an error quoting " No Authirization for Maintenance planner group XXX" . But the same planner group has got the authorisation for other plants for which it was created before.
Do i need to make any authorization settings for the newly created planner group for this plant?
Please advice and Thanks for your help in Advance.
regards,
Saakithyan.

Check [sample|http://www.scribd.com/doc/24860482/SAP-Role-profile-create?secret_password=1sdozshvwsga6l0oygtv#fullscreen:off] role creation. similiar you need to add planner group restriction using the Object: I_INGRP with field INGRP and IWERK

Planner group field in Maintenance order

Hi,
When we create a General Maintenance Order, the planner group from Equipment/Functional Location, value, will automatically appear in the Order.
But in Refurbishment Order, which is for material, the planner group field do not come automatically.
Is there any option to maintain the planner group field in the Material master, so that, this can appear automatically in the Refurbishment order.
Kindly suggest.
Raja.

Hi Kutti Raja,
The Material Master route you are looking for does not look feasible,as there is no relation between Planner Group and Material .
If your Refurbishment Order is triggered through a Notification (M4), then Planner Group automatically flows to Order.
The other alternative can be
1. Create a Z-Table having Material vs Planner Group.
2, Use the User-Exit IWO10018 to have default planner group INGPR value.
This works as I have already tested while replying to a discussion. Please go through this.work order completed by
and go through my reply having 6 steps. You need to work in the similar lines.
Take help of an ABAPer.

Planner Group field in equipment master data

Dear All,
My client is having Maintenance dept. which is divided in to 3 sub departments like Mechanical, Electrical & Civil. By referring this I am going to create following Planner Groups.
I have decided to maintain following planner groupu2019s for planning & preparing maintenance tasks.
1) Head Mechanical
2) Head Electrical
3) Head Civil
In my case I am planning to maintain Planner Group at Equipment level. I am not going to maintain at Functional Location level.
My client is saying that they have many Equipmentu2019s for which Planner Group must be above 3 & few Equipments having Mechanical & Electrical Planner Group.
For example, Compressor is Equipment for that Mechanical & Electrical both is responsible for planning & preparing maintenance tasks. *So they wanted both Planner Groups to be maintained at Equipment level. But as per SAP standard you can maintain only one Planner Group at Equipment or Functional Location level.*
I have few questions in my mind related to Planner Group.
1) What is the importance of Planner Group?
2) If I have not maintained Planner Group at Functional Location & Equipment Level then what will happen?
3) Can I maintain Planner Group at PM Order level?
4) Suppose I have maintained Planner Group u201CHead Mechanicalu201D in Equipment but after some days there is some electrical maintenance is come up. Then I will create PM order for carrying out Electrical maintenance, in this can I able to change Planner Group from Mechanical to Electrical. But is this a correct way to change Planner Group in PM Order.
Regarding this query how I can convince to my client.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep

Sandeep,
I would suggest the structuring the system as follows.
          Mechanical (Work center)
                    MEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                    MEng2 (Activity)
                    MEng3 (Activity)
                    MEng4 (Activity)
          Mechanical (Work center)
                    EEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                    EEng2 (Activity)
                    EEng3 (Activity)
                    EEng4 (Activity)
          Civli (Work center)
                    CEng1 (Activity = Engineer name or Employee code)
                    CEng2 (Activity)
                    CEng3 (Activity)
                    CEng4 (Activity)
In a single order you can use different work center activities... ie. in a single order, you can use Elect Eng for some operations + Mech eng for some operations
Capture and seggregate the cost of each dept in the same order ie. Elect Labor cost, Mech labor cost in Cost tab
You can get the report work center wise and Activity type wise

Is there any standard transaction by which i can get the list of all the planner groups I am having in the system or in the Maintenance Plant.
Regards
Iftikhar

Hi
The planner groups are defined through IMG(SPRO). so thereis no any standard report fot thie,
you get from t-code OIAI, or from table V_T024I.

Planner Group

Hi,
I have defined planner groups for the maintenance orders. I was able to see the planner groups while creating PM orders at header data.
The question is that while I am creating general maintenance task list I was unable to see the same planner groups in task list header data at assignements to header.
What could be the reason and is there any difference b/w orders planner group and task list planner group.
Regards
Srinivas

Hi Srini
Planner group for task list u have to define in SPRO
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service - Maintenance Plans, Work Centers, Task Lists and PRTs - Task Lists - General Data - Configure Planner Group
Since the planner group for order is configured in Technical Objects

Authorization as per planner group

Dear experts,
i want to give authorization to change F loc and equipment as per planner groups.....
What till now i have done I had assigned planner groups (Departments) to equipments and f.locs.....now my requirement is that only persons who belong to that planner group should be able to create or change the master data....
Plz tell me the rpocedure to that.....
Thnks in advance
Regards
Rahul

Hi,
For this you have to create the diffrent roles for the equipment and function location.
Use the authorization object I_INGRP for controling based on Planner Group.
In the role give the Planeer Group,Planning Plant and Tcode(IE02 & IL02).

Planner group authorization in order

Hi,
i am planning to give the chnage authorization of maintenance orders and notifications on the basis of planner group. The planner group is maintained in equipment master data and copied to order and notification upon creation. Now the problem i am facing is that i created one role for change order and in that i used the authorization object I_INGRP and maintain planner group values and t code: IW32. now when user is changing the order the authorization is coming in to picture but during order creation also the authorization check is there. I dont want the authorization check at order creation level but only at order change level. That why i only put t code IW32 in role. Can anyone tell me why the system is checking authorization at creation level and how to avoid this.

System will check Planner group authorisation during work order creation, See [simulation|http://www.scribd.com/doc/24194024/authorisation-issue-check].
As i understood, the planner group XXX need to change the workorder created by YYY for the equipment planner group XXX.
or Create custom auth object and enhance the code to check the restriction

Controlling same Notification Types against few Planner groups

Dear Experts,
We have four groups of Maintenance Team (Mec, Ele, Inst & Civ) which are controlled against four roles to create same Notification types. The control factor is planner group which are linked against their required role and it is working fine to create notification (IW21) for their specific group.
The problem which we are facing is, change mode of Notification, Mech planner group team can change the details of Notification in Elec group as
same Notification types are used by 4 groups. Is there any way to restrict for the change authorization (IW22) in Notification as four teams are following four differernt roles.
Regards,
Sahu

Ajaya,
Check the values in Authorization Object I_QMEL. (PFCG tcode of the respective Role) See the picture below. Assume this is your role for Civil Notification type (CE). It should look like this.
Also, try by removing the values in TCD field in other authObjects of this Role.
One more possibility is
Some Role other than this specific Role is enabling the user for IW22. This role might have been assigned to all these 3 users. You need to trace this and remove or modify the role.
This problem is a typical one often seen to be associated with AuthObjects, This can be managed by investigation.
A last resort method can be to manage this through user-exit QQMA0014. This is possible.
