Planning plant is different from maintenance plant

Hi,
For my client, Maintenance planning is done at head office which located at different place and actual maintenance done at another location (maintenance plant).
What is the effect if planning plant is different from maintenance plant?
Can somebody help me.
Thanks in adv.

Hi
As per the feedback given by you no need to create a separate planning plant. You create only one plant & planning plant will be the same plant only. You can differentiate the head office & the local office by different planner groups. If you create a different planning plant(head office) aslo there wont be any problem(if you wont restrict by authorisation). Plannig plant functionality is used in case of multiple plants whose maintenace is carried out by a single plant(plannig plant) so that it can plan the material requirement of all the plants apart from functionality of authorisation control & reporting. I think in your case you can go ahead with single plant.

  • How to change planning plant in Maintenance order

    Hi experts ...
    In maintenance order , depending on equipment , the planning plant gets defaulted . If Equipment is installed in another FL whose planning plant is different , the order's planning plant doesn't change (Greyed) . Is there anyway to change planning plant in orders
    NPB

    We have maitenance and planning plant same .Equipment was in maintenance plant XYZ and planning plant XYZ earlier . Now the same equipment is in maintainance plant ABC and planning plant ABC . In order , I am able to change maintenance plant  to ABC , but unable to change the planning plant to ABC .
    If I do not change planning plant and change only maintenence plant , what are the effects in cost reporting ? Since ultimately cost is settled to equipment cost center (which is now changed to ABC cost center) , I feel there will not be any effect . Old planning plant may only affect search right ? ....Please advise ...

  • More than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.?

    hi Friends, can we have more than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.Is there any advantage or disadvantage of this condition.?

    Hi,
         You can have Maintenance Planning Plant & Maintenance Plant in any of the follwing ratios, i.e., 1:1 / 1:n / n:1. Actually in Maintenance, there can be electrical & mechanical maintenance.
              In the case of 1:1 relation, all the maintenance activities (Electrical & Mechanical) will be planned by single Maintenance Planning Plant for single Maintenance Plant.
            In case of 1:n, single maintenance planning plant will do the plaaning of maintenance activities for all the maintenance plants.
          In case of n:1, electrical activity will be planned by one Maintenance planning plant & mechanical activities by another planning plant for a single Maintenance plant.
          Defining Maintenance planning plant & maintenance plant in different relations will help us in generating different kind of reports.
    I am looking forward your reply.

  • Assign Maintenance Planning Plant to Maintenance Plant

    Hi All,
    What is the purpose of the configuration node "Assign Maintenance Planning Plant to Maintenance Plant"?
    What happens if we don't maintain this configuration?
    Regards,
    Devasenapathy.K

    Hi ,
    Maintenance Planning Plant and Planning Plant are different
    In Logistics you define Plant which has to be distinguished as Maintenance Planning Plant . In these Plants you will plan for all your maintenance tasks
    You can plan and created
    1. Task list
    2. Planning and scheduling of Maintenance Plans
    3.creation of  Notifcations
    4. Execution of Maintenacne Orders
    Maintenance Plants are also termed as Plants in which your technical objects are installed
    For example, if an equipment X is installed in the Plant 0001 then Plant 0001 is called as Planning Plant and this plant on its own cannot plan for maintenance activities unless it is created as Maintenance Planning Plant
    if this Plant 0001 is created as Maintenance Planning Plant, then this plant is responsible for Planning and execution of tasks for maintenance
    this is where your assignment is needed, if not Maintenance and execution cannot happen
    hope it is clear
    thanks

  • Maintenance Plant or Planning Plant ?

    Hi Experts,
    While running the report or any T-Code many times i observed there is a field ony Plant.
    Like in while creating workcentere the field is only plant i know it is Maintenance Planning Plant.
    If i am not wrong where ever i see the field only Plant it means it is Plannin Plant ?
    Please give your comment on this.
    AR

    Dear Pete,
    Like while creating workcentre system is only asking for entering Plant and i know it is Planning Plant.
    Also while displaying Material through MMBE there is field plant it mean it is planning plant because all the inventry of material is done for doing the planning activities so that it must be Planning Plant.
    But i am not not 100% sure about the above two.
    It seems that workcenter can be maintain under Maintenance Plant as wel as in Maintenanace Planning Plant same may be with inventory stock.This could be the reason system is only asking for Plant.
    But to make it sure i want assurance from you experts.Please give your experts comment on the same.

  • Changing Maintenance plant to Planning Plant

    Dear Experts,
    We have requirement like this.
    Now under 1000 Planning Plant , 1001,1002 are maintained as matainance plant.
    Now we have planned to change 1001plant as Planning plant, means accordingly we have changed the configuration.
    Now are transporting the changes to PRD, So here before importing to PRD what are all the activities has to be considered.
    As per my knowledge
    1] We have to close the all the maintenance order, Notifications, Service orders has to be closed.
    2] To change the Planning plant from 1000 to 1001 for all the equipments and functional location.
    Apart from above mentioned activity, if any further steps need to be carried out please suggest.

    Message no. CJ707"
    Its not allowing me to save the project at all. I am able to only cancel and come out of the project.

  • FM or BAPI to change Maintenance plant and Planning Plant for an equipment

    Hi Experts,
    I need to change the Maintenance plant and Planning Plant for an equipment. Is there FM or BAPI available for the same?
    Thanks,
    Peri.

    what doesn't it do the same ? it contains planning plant and maintenance plant which you can update ??
    if you expect that SAP delivers custom functions for every possible question a developer has you can better search for an other job. SAP makes generic functions and you can use them for you're own sollutions.
    it is also expected that you try to work things out for you're own sollution.
    you can find sample code quickly enough if you search where the function is used
    like RISTEQ01

  • Copy Planning Plant to Sort field in Maintenance Plan

    Hi All,
    Is there any User Exit User exit is available to Copy Planning Plant to Sort field in Maintenance Plan.
    Regds
    Vinit

    I think it is not possibe as the sort field in maintenance plan is a customizing field. you can not enter any value in the sort field but you in SPRO first you have to maintain the values  for sort field.
    The sort field in order and notification, there you can copy the planning plant or anything else as they are manual input fields

  • Maintenance plant & maintenance planning plant

    Hi,Experts,
    Logistic plant is created by MM consultant.Why to create again maintenance plant & maintenance planning plant? can anybody please explain the logic behind it.Incase say, there is only one logistic plant created by MM consultant,if maintenance plant & planning plant is not created in this case how will it affect?can anybody pl explain this ?
    rgds
    mehbub

    Hi
       Please read SAP help you get complete deteails
    in brief logistic plant created by MM thats fine. As the Plant maintenance you need to have the Maintenance plant and Maintenance planning plant.
    If you consider logistic plant as Maintenance plant. for this maintenance plant you need to carryout the planning ie is thorugh maintenance plannig plant.
    so you need to assing to each other in the enterprics structure.
    bascially maint plant is plant where you perform the maint task and maint plan is the plan aganit the maint plant you plan the maintenance .

    Regards,

    Hi,
    Yes while using IH01, i have ticked the BOM explosion option, but when i am giving the plant there then only it is displaying the BOM of that equipment.
    Also when i am creating an order for the same equipment, then it does not displays the BOm & shows the message which i have written in my previous mail.

  • System not allow to change planning plant

    Hi Experts,
    My problem is I changed company  code , maintenance plant  & planning plant in old system as per client requirement. They are using same system from last 4 years. I changed all require setting in customization but now problem is that in  equipment task list system does not allow to change the planning plant in header data of  IA02 T code. I updated the new planning plant in Function location master,Equipment master , Work center & assign it planner group but even system shows the old planning plant in task list header data. System shows the planning plant data in display mode.
    Pl advice from where system link the planning plant field in task list header data.
    Thx in adavance.
    AVI DDS

    Avi
    Pete is right. There is no way you can change the planning plant in the Task Lists
    Task list creation is done for a planning plant & you will not be able to use the existing tasklist for your updated equipments having different PPlants.
    The only way to proceed is to create new tasklists
    Delete the old assignments of the tasklists to the maintenance item & reassign the new tasklists to the existing items
    In case you dont want the tasklists in the system itself, you will have to delete the tasklists - ie mark the deletion indicator in the change mode & archive the TLs.
