PM Notification contains functional location after dismantling

Dear Gentlemen,
We are facing the following problem.
An equipment is installed on a functional location.
A maintenance notification is created for the equipment.
The maintenance notification automatically takes on the functional
location number.
Now an order is created for the functional location that does NOT refer
to the notification mentioned. With a reservation referring to the orderthe equipment is dismantled from the functional location with transaction
IE4N.
The equipment is now in stock and no longer installed on the functional
location. However, the original notification still refers to the
functional location.
When we execute transaction IW28 (overview of notifications for the
functional location) the notification is still displayed in spite of thefact that the notification is for the equipment that does not belong to
the functional location anymore.
Is there a way to remove the functional location automatically from the
notification for the equipment after the dismantling operation has takenplace?
Thanks a lot and best regards
Pierre Peeters
Steps for Reconstruction
1) Equipment installed on functional location
2) Transaction IW21 to create a notification for the equipment
3) Notification contains the functional location
4) Transaction IW31 to create an order the functional location
5) Enter the material of the equipment as a reservation
6) Release the order with transaction IW32
7) Transaction IE4N to dismantle the equipment from the functional
location with reference to the reservation from the order
8) Transaction IW28 to display all notifications for the functional
lcoation. The notification is still displayed but the equipment is no
longer installed on the functional location!

Hi Pierre,
The Procedure followed by SAP is to maintain the state of equipments during creation of the notification. The process in the notification is before dismantling of the equipment so standard process says you should complete the noitification rather than changing the equipment in the notification.
Now for better explanation, can you just specify for what case the notification is created? And what is the problem if the functional location is not removed?

Functional Location Required field- Notification processing

Hello All,
I would like to maintain Functional Location as a Required field for certain Notification Types. In IMG:
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service>Maintenance and Service Notifications>Notification Creation>Notification Types>Set Field Selection for Notifications
Field Selection for Maintenance Notifications
Field Selection Reference Objects PM Notification
When I Select Field Selection for Maintenance Notifications>Select Influencing: Notification Types and Selected the desired Notification Type and set Functional Location as a Required field the Notification Type does not have Functional Locatiion as a Required Field.
When I select Field Selection Reference Objects PM Notification:ISelect Influencing: Notification Types and Selected the desired Notification Type and set Functional Location as a Required field* the Notification Type does not have Functional Locatiion as a Required Field.
But When I select Field Selection Reference Objects PM Notification:Make Functional Location as a Required field and then Select Influencing: Notification Types and Selected the desired Notification Type and set Functional Location as a Required field* all the Notification Type does have Functional Locatiion as a Required Field.
How do i make the Functional Location as a Required field for a particular Notification type.
Thanks
Krish

1) Field Selection Reference Objects PM Notification
2) Click 'Influencing' button
3) Double-click 'Notification type'
4) Input your notification type on 'Contents' field, then enter
5) Select 'Required' for functional location
Save

Functional locations from order to notification

Hello
We have a small problem regarding how the functional location field in the notification is filled. The user creates an order Iw31, and on his peronal settings there is defined a value for functional location, the top of a hierarchy. In the order he changes this value to the correct functional location, and everything else in the order, then he saves it and a notification is created (for some ordertypes) in that notification the functional location is not from the order, but from the personal settings, if we remove the personal settings the notification is updated correct. Is there a way to get it updated correct without removing the value from the personal setting?
Ivar

Its not possible when you set User Default values settings. Check the below links.
From SAP Help:
If you create notifications in which certain data is always the same, you can permanently define certain user default values to make it easier to create the notifications. The system automatically copies this default data into the appropriate notification fields. You can, however, overwrite the proposed information.

How to find dismantled and reinstalled equipments of functional location?

Dear Experts,
how to find dismattled and reinstalled equipments of functional location. if any equipment is dismanttled and not reinstalled, for those want to display in ALV report? how?
regards,
venkey

venky,
Suppose a particular equipment had undergone several dismantlings under various Functional location/Equipments and presently it is not installed anywhere.
Such equipments can be searched through AVLB system status in IH08.
Go to the Master data of any such equipment and in the Menubar Extras-->Usagelist will give you the information you wanted in ALV format.

Functional Location

Hi,
Client is having lot of moving Equipments. So then he want that when production person should create notifiaction, he should enter the location also to identify the location of perticular machine like welding machine. For fixed machines , that will be installed at functional location.But what about moving machines. Can i control it with any exit. Means when equipment status inst, system should fetch from Functional Location or else.
Thanx in advance

Hi
I hope this can be done for your case...
Create New Equipment category for moving equipments.... You can create notification with respect to equipments... thats enough... in other case.. if u require a functional location... then create one functional location EX : Maintenance Room etc... Assign all the moving equipments to this functional location...
You can get the functional location datas from here... so notification will have a functional location...
Normally for moving equipments... Say Equipment A and B is working in one functional location Z for five days... but equipment A will be used in another functional after 3rd day... in such case... you need to assemble and dismantle the functional location, once the work is started and completed... you need to take care of these things...
By this.. you can track the usage of equipments at different functional location

Functional locations are not transfered to the client

Hi,
I have the problem that no functional locations are transfered to the xMAM client.
I defined a func. loc. selection variant and assigned it to the master data selection of xMAM.
If I create a new notification using a func. loc. it isn't shown on the client (weather the notification or the func. loc.). If I open the notification on the backend, I receive the message that the notification is already transfered to the client. But where is it???
Any idea?
Thank you and regards,
Florian

Hi again,
after some testing, I got it working.
1. deleted all log messages for my mobile device (MEREP_PURGE).
2. executed MEREP_EX_REPLIC with MAM30_030
and then it worked. Now funcional locations are transfered to the client.

Runtime error while opening stucture tab in Functional Location..

Dear All,
Whenever I'm trying to open the structure tab of functional location I'm getting the runtime error and the message is as follws..
Run time error TIME_OUT
Time Limit Exceeded
The program " SAPLIE01" has exceeded the maximum permitted runtime without interruption and has therefore been terminated
Error Analysis
After specific time,the program is terminated to make the work area available to other users who may be waiting
I did not understand the reason for it....
Any can throw light on this...
Thanks in Advance
Johnson

Dear
This problem is occuring due to your transactions has so many datas in output. So that system is providing the error. In each sap log in you can control the maximum idle hours at Option header menu at Main menu.
Else you get the Abaper+Basis for the help. There is no error in functional side for sort out.

Extending the existing functional locations to a new plant?

Hi Sapiens,
The following is my concern:
Q1) I have a set of functional locations(roughly around 5000 records) assigned to say Plant A.
I would like to extend these existing functional locations to Plant B. I am not permitted to do this using LSMW. I should execute this operation in one shot.
How to accomplish this?
Q2) After attaching all the functional locations to Plant B, i should replace the first 4 characters of the functional location structure with the Plant Code itself. Again not through an lsmw. How to accomplish this in one shot?
Please let me know the procedure of doing it with some guidelines.
Thanks in Advance,
Vijaya

Hi
1. You can extentd to the other plant with SCAT ,BDC etc
2. But You can not replace the first four letters from the FL with the New plant code.Remember this is a master data

ILOM0001 - functional location description (pltxt)

Hi,
problem:
the (same) description (PLTXT) of functional location has to be saved in TWO different languages every time any change is done on a functional location AND save is (pressed) processed.
User exit ILOM0001 is already implemented and can be used for further enhancements.
Open for any suggestions.
Thanks a lot for any response.

Thanks so far.
@Dwaraka
I already thought about a direct update of the IFLOTX table. But I also learned (: NOT to access standard SAP DB-Tables directly!
The user exit ILOM0001 is used only be the one project. So no issues on that end.
@Pete
It's not causing a problem -> I have to realise the proper saving/update of the same description in two different languages every time the 'SAVE' is processed.
Users can logon in (2) different languages (international company). But in EDIT mode for the technical object (func. location) the description value has to be the same!
Did I answer all your questions?
Thank's for further replies.
Eduard
At last the problem was solved. (not that nice - but anyway)
- The functional location is created (and saved) using SAP standard BAPI's.
in the User Exit i put coding which INSERTs the same PLTXT (with respectively other language code) using SAP update function module for IFLOTX. this part runs only if transaction (sy-tcode) IL01 or a specific condition are set.
- During the process the user (always!) needs to modify some Data of the functional location. [1. SET PARAMETER ID ifl FIELD f; 2. call transaction IL02 and skip first screen]
in the User Exit there is bapi call - something like IFLOTX_UPDATE or - the existend PLTXT is copied into the Importing structure of the function module and the language is switched . The text is then modified after COMMIT WORK
It's probably not the best way - but it worked.

Clients distributor or dealer location as functional location

Dear All,
We are implementing PM/CS module in Ice Cream Mfg. Co. Here my client purchases deep freezer and send to various distributor locations in all over India by doing some commercial agreement. In this up to the one year deep freezer is asset of my client then after one year it is asset of distributor.
Kindly go through following points & how this can be mapped in SAP PM/CS module.
1) After purchasing of deep freezer my client (Ice cream mfg. co.) send this to various distributors. They give deep freezer to distributor for one year which on Free of Cost basis. In that some maintenance is taken place, which is carried out by client (Ice cream mfg. co.) service technician. This maintenance is also carried on free of cost basis. Once one year gets completed they sell out to distributor.
So that becomes a distributoru2019s asset.
2) After one year what ever maintenance is taken place which is reported to client (Ice cream mfg. co.) then client sends technician to distributor location. He carries maintenance & charged for the same. Which may include some material cost or spares cost.
3) In this scenario can I use functional location category as u201CS - Customer system u2013 standardu201D for creating functional location. Also confirm, can I create all Distributor or Dealer location will be as functional location.
4) Whatever deep freezer is installed at distributor location, those deep freezer can I create as Equipment.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep Theurkar

Sandeep,
The following is the rough mapping of your requirement.
You = Ice Cream Mfg Co.,
Customer = Distributor
Equipment = Freezer
4) Whatever deep freezer is installed at distributor location, those deep freezer can I create as Equipment.
Yes, every Freezer is an Equipment
3) In this scenario can I use functional location category as u201CS - Customer system u2013 standardu201D for creating functional location. Also confirm, can I create all Distributor or Dealer location will be as functional location.
Yes, you can use Customer site as Functional location
1) After purchasing of deep freezer my client (Ice cream mfg. co.) send this to various distributors. They give deep freezer to distributor for one year which on Free of Cost basis. In that some maintenance is taken place, which is carried out by client (Ice cream mfg. co.) service technician. This maintenance is also carried on free of cost basis. Once one year gets completed they sell out to distributor.
So that becomes a distributoru2019s asset.
1a.You may use customer consignment process to maintain the Eqiupment in your stock.
1b.Create another sales order and deliver to the distributor from Consignment Stock
Service and Maintenance would be standard process
2) After one year what ever maintenance is taken place which is reported to client (Ice cream mfg. co.) then client sends technician to distributor location. He carries maintenance & charged for the same. Which may include some material cost or spares cost.
Service and Maintenance would be standard process. You may also execute a Service contract between you and Distributor for servicing and maintenance
