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

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,
Ram.

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

WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7003,127.0.0.1:7005,127.0.0.1:7007

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

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

SAP Enterprise Structure for Plant Maintenance Module

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.

Maintenance order workflow (in plant maintenance module)

Hi,
I'm looking into implementing maintenance order workflow within PM module. Found the workflow ws2000021, but is this workflow integrated with enterprise portal. That means when a work order is created, can this work order be route to UWL (EP) of another supervisor for release and signoff, instead of going into IW32 and release the work order?
Is any of the logisitics workflow(like Purchase order) available and can be used in the enterprise portal? Just like leave and overtime application in the HR module which are currently available for use in the portal.

Hi,
To get to know info about mySAP ERP 2004 - MM Workflows,please check in this link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/1d/ea9d9c7aca11d194b70000e82dec10/frameset.htm
Well, if there is a workflow that works with EP, you can find them in the above link itself.
I dont think Workflows comes with BUSINESS PACK.

Reg Plant Maintenance Module

There is a smartform developed for my client instead of SAPSCRIPT for program RIPCT00(i.e TCODE - IW32). In smartform client wants to have 2 fields.
1 - How many Maintenance order created of the eqiupment
2 - Last Maintenance order of selected equipment.
But for both fileds they have mentioned as Max of AFIH-AUFNR.
Experts can you please suggest me what will be the solution.
Ex: if there are 2 records with AUFNR as 21 and 22.
My guess is for 1 is by calculating no of records in AFIH. i.e 21 and 22 so value is 2.
My guess is for 2 should i take 21 or 22 as Last maintenance order.
Is my guess is in right direction because i am new to PM module. Please give me your valuable suggestions.

Hi,
1 - How many Maintenance order created of the eqiupment
general logic will be to count the total number of AUFNR in the table
2. Last maint order of selec equipment.
This you have to check on the below logics
Based on Created date.
Based on Order start date.
based on Order number.
So for this you need to discuss with the business owner and document them in the FS correctly.

Maintenance Charges in Plant Maintenance Module

HI Experts,
I want to prepare a report which gives the utilization charges(IW31) for a particular Vehicle for a given period of time.Can any one suggest in which table Cost Element,Total Plan Cost and Total actual costs are stored while preparing Maintenance Order(IW31)
Selection Criteria: Equipment No and Date Range.
Regds,
Sam.

Hello,
You can check the linkage when you display the newly created sub order in IW33 under header data.
You can also see the report for the same in IW39 by either by providing superior order number or sub order (in order filed).
