PM Work Order Conversion Advice
Experts,
We are currently implementing ECC 6.08 and have a requirement to convert open and historical work orders during the implementation phase. While we have already selected a BAPI to load the data into the target system, we are now struggling to understand what financial impacts we must watch out for, and how to reconcile related documents (purchase orders, reservations, etc.).
Has any one completed a conversion of Open PM Work Orders (transaction IW31) in the past u2013 either manually or via an automated conversion?
If so u2013 how did you manage the complexities of related documents, reconciliation of financial transactions, etc?
Any advice, old documentation, or planning materials that you may have from a previous project would be fantastic!
Thanks in advance!
Hi Ranganathan,
You can use Tcode IW61 to create Historical Orders. The historical orders has no goods movements & settlement. You can directly enter the actual cost during historical order creation.Those orders can be used for cost analysis.

We have redeployment project from 4.6c to ECC6.0, the client wants to migrate the work orders both open and closed to new system. I understand that as a normal process we migrate the Open work orders. Has any one migrated the closed work orders?

Hi,
Any body have ideal?
What are the work order summary report mean for?
I am using T-code ZPM02 to view the report but the report display the work center according to the category CRTL,REL,PCNF,CNF,TECO and CLSD with each colunmn display the figure.
What is mean for CRTL,REL,PCNF,CNF,TECO and CLSD?PeteA,
Thank you for the information, the report is indeed a customized report.
Could advice how to diffrentiaze between customize and standard report in SAP system?
Can the IW39 list all orders with all the status in IW39?
The reason being I am having problem with the customize report display (work order summary report)the status diffrence with the IW39 is the detail report.I am now looking for the SAP standard report for work order summary report to compare with the customize report to verify which report are display not correct.
Do you have any ideal others than IW39 what others report in SAP system show the work order summary report?
Many thanks.

Budget Exceed Issue in work Order (P.O) in Production Server.
Hi Friends,
I am getting different type of budget exceed issue, that to only in Production server.
Here the issue is when I am creating the work order P.O (Acc.As. Cat.P, Itm Cat. D) with different service line items with respective WBSe with in the budget limit, then I am doing SES for some quantity, now when I am changing (I am decreasing not increasing) the same P.O line item available quantity and creating the new version now system is calculating the old version line item quantity + new version quantity (nothing but double) then giving budget exceed error.
One more strange thing is, if I change quantity for one line item then system is giving budget exceed error for another line item which is having the different WBSe which was saved with out giving any error at the time of P.O creation.
This issue is happening only in Production server ....same scenario I have run with the same values in both Dev. and Qau. (Where the config. is same in all 3 clients) but in both the clients it is working fine...but in production why the system is behaving in such a way I am not getting.
In the below I have given the test scenario...

SrikanthHi,
I have face similar issue in deleting PO line items.
Even though I delete items, system check budget for deleted qty with the currency conversion + value & gives budget exceed error.
In some cases we have asked user to deactivated AVAC asked to do the transaction, which is not recommended.
You can try running CJBN & CJBV in sequence for affected WBS.
Thanks & reg,

Work order to cost center settlement does not post to GL module (FI)
Dear Expert,
I find the Maintenance Work order to cost center settlement does not post to GL module (FI)?Also, the settlement cost element is primary element define in GL chart of account.
When an maintenance order is settled with KO88 or KO8G the work order value posted cost center and the value is display in cost center report but not post to GL module in FI.As I notice only good issue or receive to/from work order is posted in GL but not the settlement of work order.Why?
Between, Kindly advise what are the report or T-code to view the maintenance order is done the settlement and what are the value is settle for maintenance work order?
Kindly advice under what circumstance when maintenance work order to cost center settlement is posted to GL(FI module)?
Please advice.
Thank you.
KHHi Kiran,
The error message clearly says that "Cost Center validity starts from 01.10.2014" i.e. in the future period.
Change the cost center from period in the past date and try.

Hi ,
By mistake we have performed WIP Assembly Return through Work order less completion, due to this On hand got reduced.
Could you please advice how to reverse this transaction.
Regards
RaviHi Ravi,
Yes, system will not allow to transact the same schedule number again. New schedule number will be generated automatically when you perform the WIP Assy Completion transaction using Work Order-Less Completions window and all the accounting entries will be balanced in the system.

Using a hierarchy but also showing work orders that are not in hierarchy
good morning bi people,
i have a requirement to show data from a hierarchy which includes Operation and Maintenance information. for example it has an account broken into labour/material/trucking and below this is the pm acivity type and secondary cost element (concatenated). this hierarchy is a manually created hierarchy that is uploaded to BW and is not in ECC. The users do not want to see the concatenated field at the end of the hierarchy, but instead, want to see the Work Orders that have the PM activity types.
At the present time, we have the report using the hierarchy but we need the work orders to replace the pm activity type/secondary cost element concatenated field. the work order field is a free characteristic and when we drag in the work order in analyzer, it works correctly.
1) is this possible to use the hierarchy and somehow map the work order field to the end of the hierarchy within crystal?
2) do you have a suggestion to change the hierarchy, without being a manual nightmare?
all conversations are welcome.
ErikGood Day Ingo,
i have created a word document with screen shots of the hierarchy from BW, a screen shot of the BEx showing the free characteristic of Maintenance Order and a screen shot of the crystal report with the PM Activity type concatenated to the Cost Element. Once again, we do not wish to see the concatenated field, but rather see the Maintenance orders that have a PM Activity type the same as the concatenated field.
here is the link.

Unable to settle PM work order
Hi,
We have done settlement for a PM work order successfully with transaction KO8G.
But still it shows in the open settlement list -Transaction s_alr_87013127.
Please advice.
Regards,
PratapPlease take a look at the work order, if the material and labor cost is associated to it correctly...
Please check the settlement profile for the same....check for the settlement object...check for the status of the work order (not on the report but on the order)
Make sure everything is correct, when using KO88, fill in all the necessary parameters for the order you and then from the menu bar select "EXTRAS", it has the option of running the trace...
From your message, looks like the settlement profile and the work order do not conform...either its that or there is no cost attached to the work order... -
Print out documents attached to a work order before Releasing a work order
Team
Requirement is given below. Need some advice.
How to print out documents attached to a PM work order before the order is set to released status?
Further the same documents have to be printed again after the order is released.
Regards
SunilI think there is an OSS Note on this one - have a look there.
There is a work-around where you do the following:
- Enter IW32 and RELEASE the the order (but do not save)
- Print out whatever you require
- Exit the order without saving (therefore the RELEASE is not saved)
Note: for one client we put a PRINT button on the Enhancement tab (user-exit IWO10018) for this purpose.
Prometheus Group also provide a solution called Print Manager

Add new field in Work Order Component Tab
Dear Experts,
Really need your advice to solve my client requirement related to Work Order. The requirement is to put status code and estimated date of returned material in WO Component Tab.
And because we almost use all of fields in Component. So i'm trying to know, is there any configuration (in SPRO - if any) by adding new custom fields in Work Order (WO) Component Tab?.
Or is there any enhancement (EXIT) to add new fields in WO?
Please advice.
Thanks.

Issue unit of measure being used in purchasing tab of work order
Hi, I've got a material with a base unit of measure of 'EA'. This material has a issue unit of measure 'BOX'. When I go to add this material as a component to a work order the unit of issue 'BOX' is used as the base unit of measure. This of course is incorrect. Can anyone shed any light on this?
Not sure whether it will help you.
Have you maintained the relationship in MM in Additional uom tab.
Also check t code CUNI if any conversion factor you can mention there.

How to make material availability check work during Work Order creation
Hi Experts,
Kindly advice about these matters:
1. How to make material availability check work during Work Order creation?
My requirement is Work Order can not be created when it has missing parts. I have set the config to '3' can not created when is has missing parts, but it still does not work.
I have implemented SAP Notes 1148139 on my system (SAP ECC 6 Ehp 5) also, but still does not have any effect.
I must not set the config Res./Purch Doc creation to 'immediately', because it does not fit to my user requirement. Is there anyone knows how to solve this requirement?
2. How to make information message/ Availability check screen appear when sparepart is missing, without clicking Availability Check button? for example: appear when clicking Save button.
Thank you
-amoonra-Hi Maheswaran,
I have implement the prerequisite notes. (Notes 790219 and 1034962). Do you know why it is still does not work?
Thanks

User status for Notification and Work order
We generate Service Notification IW26. I have already configured user status like PMND (Planning order not done), AWOP (Awaiting ordered parts) etc. in the Work order a while ago. Now the user wants same User status to the Notification as well. I like to know from experts what is the value added to have the same user status for both Notification and Work Order?
Do you have any suggestions?Hey Chandra,
The customer intent behind this requirement must be to check in reporting / List Display Transaction about the Order Status. If they want to know looking at a Pending Notification List about the Order Status, you can always provide similar report using SAP Query Builder or with help of your Developer.
Apart from that If the Requirement is to have these User Statuses in Notification itself, Please advice them that it will be extra activity while performing transaction.
I dont see any other benefit of having User Statuses added to Notification as well.
Do let me know if you have some more info on Why Customer is requesting this....

Avi
