Dear All,
Can anyone share some links or materials regarding the PM module.
I have checked the help.sap reference. but since I dont have experience & practical knowledge regarding this module I am finding a bit difficult to follow. So please advice how to start with ?
Materials with the basics structure & Process flow in PM  Or if someone can explain the PM process flow like the PR-LIV flow in MM it will be really very helpful.
Also if you can provide details regarding the SDN forum i.e related to PM module where I can find PM materials & threads it will be highly appreciable.
Expecting your valuable replys.
Regards,

  • Intergration of Production Planning with Plant Maintenance (SAP Modules)

    Our SAP Implentation Consultants are creating work centres in Production Planning which are different to the workcentres in Plant Maintenance as follows.
    Work Centres in PP
    Mixing
    Blowing
    Filling
    Packaging
    Work Centres in PM
    Mechanical
    Electronics
    Electrical
    My observation is that in PM the work centres should be identical to PP work centres. whereas Mechanical, Electronics and Electrical should be configured as divisions or departments. The idea is that by having PM WC identical to PP WC the costing will be simplified.
    looking forward to expert's advices, please

    hi,
    please explain me SAP Enterprise  Structure for Plant maintenance (PM) module.

    Hi,
        As SAP PM enterprise structure comprises of Company, Maintenance Planning plant & Maintenance Plant. Company will be defined in Financial Accounting. Production plant will be the maintenance plant. Seperate plant would be created as Maintenance Planning Plant. All the plants (Maintenance Planning plant & Maintenance Plant) should be assigned to the company. All the maintenance plants should be assigned to Maintenance Planning Plant. For all the Maintenance Plants, technical objects would be created.
    Company --> Maintenance Planning Plant --> Maintenance Plant.
    Relation between Maintenance Planning Plant & Maintenance Plant will be 1:1 or 1:n or n:1.

  • 'Log Book' in plant maintenance (SAP PM module)

    Dear Experts
    I want to know about 'Log Book' in plant maintenance (SAP PM module). How to work on LOG BOOK & what are the configuration settings available in SAP PM for Log Book?
    Basically, the concept of logbook is to update shift activities & measures during Plant Maintenance without SAP. but in SAP, What i know about the Log book in SAP PM is : It is an industry specific feature, before it was only used in (IS- Aeronautical). but now it is available in ECC 6.0 also. To activate this node, we need to update the patch 2.0 in ECC 6.0
    Thanx,
    PMGURU

    Dear,
    The Logbook is an easy-to-use tool that supports the controlling and execution of daily maintenance tasks for assets in operation. This tool provides personnel, who are operating the assets, with the functions to log defects and operational data. It provides maintenance personnel, such as maintenance engineers and technicians, with functions that ensure the timely and reliable execution of their maintenance tasks.
    Logbook is easy to use and provides functionality that is seamlessly integrated with follow-on processes of the mySAP for Aerospace & Defense solution for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO). For example, operational data captured in the Logbook updates measurement points that, in turn, trigger preventive maintenance events. Maintenance work steps created in the Logbook generate material and resource requirements in materials and capacity planning. Material exchanges update the asset structure and automatically generate the required goods movements.
    An important business example for using the Logbook is to control the daily line maintenance tasks for aircrafts.
    The logbook helps you record defects encountered during aircraft flights and the actions taken to correct them. The log may also include the space to record additional flight data, such as the names of the crew members, flight parameters, payload data, fueling data, flight hours, and cycles operated.

  • How to read the configuration for SAP GUI elements in Plant Maintenance module from SPRO and leverage the same in NWBC for HTML.

    Dear Members,
    Greetings for the day!
    I am working on NWBC for HTML in Plant Maintenance module.
    We have configured some changes in SPRO for customizing the UI elements( like visibility, mandatory ) like tabs and fields in transactions like IW21( Create Notification).
    As of now separate parallel configuration needs to be carried out in NWBC for HTML in PM module to achieve the same UI features for creating notifications and this is time consuming.
    Is there any way to read the configuration done in SPRO for the SAP GUI's and leverage the same in NWBC for HTML.
    Appreciate your time in responding to this.
    Thanks & Regards,

    This configuration is weird little bit. There is MatchExpression /app1 and MatchExpression /app2 and at the same time two <Location /weblogic> sections. Are you sure you understand what that configuration stands for?
    Try something like this ...
    <Location /app1>
    SetHandler weblogic-handler
    WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7003,127.0.0.1:7005,127.0.0.1:7007,127.0.0.1:7103,127.0.0.1:7104

    DebugConfigInfo ON
    </Location>
    where /app1 and /app2 are contexts of your weblogic applications.

  • Urgent Issue in Plant Maintenance Module

    Dear Experts,
    We have requirement as described below, please give us your solutions / comments on this.
    We have GTC company which is having around 800 trucks for transporting the products. I n this company we have implemented SAP Plant Maintenance Module, as we have the maintenance activities done for vehicles.
    Under the same group of companies, we have PM1,PM2,PM3 companies which provide maintenance to GTC. These companies are not external to the group.
    When I raise a maintenance order for a vehicle then I will mention hours of work and material that need to be used in the activity. This maintenance work / labour is provided by PM1/PM2/PM3 company.
    In plant maintenance we have external service management, but that is for external vendors who provide service to GTC.
    But how to handle the same with internal vendors like PM1/PM2/PM3.
    Please tell me how to handle this kind of scenario.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    this is a major topic and cannot be covered in a blog. Even if it can it will take a lot of time to clarify. So, first do your checks within your module. Check if u really need to treat the services from the other company as external services. You might as well create workcenters in the plants of the other companies. And make a single maintenance planning plant for all the plants in these companies. This will make a better solution technically. But think also from the perspective of the cost of this solution. Meaning, is it worth doing all the jobs such as maintaining activity prices, work centers in the other plants etc..
    In general, my suggestion is include the FI and CO consultants at least in the discussion. It will b good if u can have the MM consultant also during the discussion.

  • CATS--- How it is transferred to plant Maintenance module

    Hello HCM Guys,
    Currently we are confirming Manhours using IW41 against the reservations of the respective manhours made in the Maint work order.After confirmation , the cost of the manhours is accumulated on the work order which is settled on the sender Cost Center maintained in the Work center master data. After TECO of the work order, Settlement of the maint work order is done in Controlling module thru KO88/KO8G(mass) and the cost transferred from the sender to the receiver cost center maintained in the CO during month end closure activity before period end close. Also standard Activity re-evaluation is done for consecutive month activity price update thru the link of activity type---Cost center assignment. This is the standard process of confirmation of manhours in SAP.
    Now since the business needs indiviual employee manhours confirmation(Internal and external employees(Contractors), I understand it can be achieved by the CATS component of HR module. I understand that in this process of CATS we do the daily attendance/absence/overtime thru the standard data entry profile maintained in CATS by HR team. After the employee has entered his daily time sheet and released, it is approved by Time administrator of HR dept which finally goes to Manager-HR for his approval. The approved time sheet manhours are then  transferred to respective module like PS, PM, CS modules. As we have never used this before I wnat to know how the transfer of costs happen when transfer to Plant Maintennace module is done. How the cost gets booked. How the cost is charged and transferred to payroll in PM...Does this happen against Maint Orders or CO Internal orders?Please explain me the detail procedure after transfer of manhours to Plant maintenance module and the cost transfer to respective receivers from sender objects....
    Thanks
    Murad Shaikh

    usually there is one step approval in CATS, You can do so via cats_appr_lite in backend
    Transfer to other components is done via CAT6
    Refer help.sap.com on various target components CATS can do transfer. you need to define the correct attributes

  • Cancellation of backflushing in plant maintenance module

    Hi all,
    Can we stop the backflushing in plant maintenance module? i have not activated backflushing in the material and also in the work center. Still, when i give the materials in the order while confirming it, the materials are issued from the stores. how to stop this background process?

    Hi Reddy,
    It is in the PM orders. Actually for simplifying their work they are doing the maintenance order confirmation using TCode "IW42 - overall completion confirmation". since the materials are entered in the operations they come in the confirmation screen and hence gets confirmed.
    Should i do the process of time confirmation and material issues through goods issue for order?
    thanks
