Preventive Maintenance on Required days........

Dear friends,
In our plant we are doing preventive maintenance on Saturdays only. We have four critical machines and monthly preventive schedules for these machines are; first Saturday of every month for first machine, 2nd Saturday of month for second machine, 3rd Saturday of month for third and respectively...
Please guide me to handle this scenario in SAP.
Regards,
Bhupender

Bhupender,
One simple way would be to create 4 separate Facory calendars, each one having only the respective saturdays as working days.For ex: create the first Factory calendar which just has the first saturday as working days. Then create the Next Calendar which has only the second saturday as working days and henceforth for the thrid and forth calendar.
Now create a Maintenace plan for each one of the critical equipments and associated the separate factory calendar to them and set the frequency to be 1 day.
This should enable you to achieve what you are looking for.

Preventive maintenance order actual completion time and date

Hey gurus,
In preventive maintenance order the basic and scheduled start dates are picked from the maintenance plan. Now the actual start and end dates are in display mode. My client wants an overall completion time and date of the preventive order and not of individual operations. Also at the end of the month they want to see the total time spent on preventive maintenance. Can you suggest any way to sort out the above problem.
Regards,
Abhishek

hi.
the basic start date and end date is coming from maintenance plan. but you can change that dates according to your requirment. For that you have to remove the automatic schduling check in the dates header in maintenance order. Afetr that you can put basic start and end dates as per your requirement.
Also the actual start and end dates and coming when you confirm the operation.
When you confirm the first operation, that date the system will take as actual start date and the day you confirm you last operation or fully confirmed the order will be taken as actual end date.
So i dont think yu have any problem. You can take basic start or basic end dates for this and change the dates as per your maintenace requirments.

Restrict the Preventive Maintenance Order creation through IW31 for few users.

Dear Guru's,
Good Day.
My client requirement is he wants to restrict the Preventive Maintenance Orders through Transaction IW31 for few users. Is it possible through authorization? Please do the needful.
Regards,
Bhanu.

possible for order type.
create a role with all order types (optional) including Prev. Maint Order type, obviously having T.code IW31. and create another similar role excluding Prev. Maint Order type.
Assign earlier role to few users (want to give the permission of IW31 Prev.) and later role to all remaining users.

Doubt in Scheduling of performance based preventive maintenance

Dear Experts ,
This is with respect to scheduling of performance based preventive maintenance.
I will put my doubt in example so that it will be easy for you to understand.
I want to perform a preventive maintenance for every 100 litres of fuel consumption.
annual estimate is 7200 litres , that means 5 litres a day.
so as per plan , for every day 5 days , maintenance needs to be performed.
same will be appear after scheduling in ip10 also.
While updating in the measuring document , I know that , if 100 litres is updated before due date , then order will be generated in the current date itself.
I just want to know how system responds , if 100 litres consumption takes more than 5 days , will the system generates order as per schedule date or will it wait to complete for 100 litres consumption ??
Regards
Keerthan Kumar

Greetings Keerthan,
That depends on:
1) The frequency that you input Measurement Documents in
2) Your Call Horizon on the Maintenance Plans
3) Your Scheduling Period in your IP30 Deadline Monitoring variant
Generally, SAP will adjust the schedule based on the Measurement Documents entered for the counter (1) to account for readings (usage) which are higher or lower than estimated.However, it will NOT reschedule any Orders already called. So to make sure the dates are usually adjusted to your usage, you want frequently input MDs, a high Call Horizon and a short Scheduling Period.
SAP will determine a scheduled due date for the Order based on the Annual Estimate and the readings. So, if the due date is in 5 days and you are on a call horizon of 100% and a Scheduling period of 3 days, for example:
a) if you do not input Measurement Documents from Day 0 onwards, the Order will be generated due for Day 5 when you run the IP30 on Day 2
b) if you input a Measuring Document on Day 1 indicating that less than estimated or no fuel was used, the due date and call date may be pushed into the future and the Order will be generated after Day 2.
c) if you input the MD after Day 2, this Order will already have been called and will not be rescheduled, but subsequent calls might.

Changing basic finish date in Preventive maintenance orders

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to block PP work centre when maintenance schedule the equipment for preventive maintenance. I am making system condition as zero in generated preventive maintenance order but basic finish date is not changing in the order automatically. Can anybody please explain how to bring this? Finally my requirement is system should change basic finish date and time as time given in operation of task list.
Thanks in advance.
best regards,
Srinivas M

Hi Praveen,
I have done all setting and tested but there is no change.
My client requirement is like this - whenever maintenance plans are scheduled, for the scheduled dates, production capacity should not be considered by production. We could do this for breakdown orders but not happening for PM orders unless we change the finish date.
The issue is to get the finish date automatically when scheduling maint.plans with respect to values given in operations. Please suggest how to get the basic finish dates automatically.
best regards,

Preventive maintenance for equipments installed in plant area

Dear experts,
I want to implement Preventive maintenance for equipments installed in plant area.
Requirement is that i should be able to create a maintenance plan & schedul it as per the due dates. Maintenance order should get created. This order can be linked to the service contract item for which service entry sheet is created & released.
I want a control on service entry sheet creation if the order is not settled or the related inspection lot which is generated is not confirmed.
Please give advice ,how to proceed.
Regards
Vivek Deshpande

Hi Vivek,
Not sure on clearly what u need .. but have a look at some of the plans and examples of their usage for better idea ..
1. Types : Time Based or Performance Based
2. Single Cycle Plan [Time Based] : Ex u2013 Maintenance of a Vehicle every 03 months
3.Single Cycle Plan [Performance Based] :Ex- Maintenance of a Vehicle every                                1000KM .
4.Strategy Cycle Plan [Time Based] : Ex- Maintenance of a Vehicle every 03                                            months, 06 months etc.
5.Strategy Cycle Plan [Performance Based Plans] : Ex u2013Maintenance of Vehicle                                                                          every 1000km , 2000km etc.
6.Multiple Cycle Plan with single cycle set [Time or Performance Based] : Ex u2013                                                    Maintenance of a vehicle every 3months or                                  500km
7.Multiple Cycle Plan with Multiple Cycle Sets [Time of Performance Based] : Ex- Maintenance of a Vehicle every 3months or 500km and 6months or 1000km
8. The above given are explained with callobject as Maintenance Order. For getting inspection Lot then you can use order type PM05 calibration order in your Maintenance Plan and MO gets created as per the plan cycle and inspection lot gets created once u release the MO ..
9. If you want MP related to service items then create MP with service procurement as Maintenance plan category in IP41 .. for remaining you can put MO as Maintenance plan category .. for details refer to SAP Help ..

To track the preventive maintenance work on the equipment itself

Hi Experts,
I have working on the requirement to track the preventive maintenance work on the equipment master data it self.
I have thought of following way of doing it.
1. Create a charateristic "Plan no" having refrence to maintenance plan table & field (MHIS - WARPL)
2. Create a charaterisic "Last completion date" having refrence to maintenance plan table & last date completion field (MHIS - LRMDT)
3.combine these two charateristic in class say "Inspection data"
4.Assign this class to equipment in classification tab
5. Create a maintenance plan , generate order and complete the order.
6. After doing this, these data should updated in charateristic values as given above. But it is not happening.
Am i missing something here. Or can you suggest me other way of doing this.
Regards,
Amar

Hi,
yes you are right we can use object information key and can navigate to required detail.
But the client want the report in a tabular format.
like Equipment no Last testing done on Maintenance plan no
There is one report in classification system that is CL30N in which you can find this kind of report provided the "Last Testing done on " and "maintenance plan no" you have used as charateristics.

Amar

Consider preventive maintenance schedule into PP order capacity planning

Hi PP experts,
My client's requirement is that when a preventive maintenance order is created in PM module for a particular work center (used in production) on a given date, NO production order (which is processed on that work center) should get released or confirmed. In other words, the capacity should be blocked at all for the subject work center.
Could you please guide how to make this effective?
We are using discrete manufacturing with capacity planning. At the time of PP order release, system shows capacity situation so as to decide whether go-ahead even with overloaded capacity.
Regards,
HKV...

First, you should assign the PP work center in the location tab of the PM equipment which refers this workcenter.
Secondly you should enter the sytem condition in the task list of the equipment.
During preventive schedule the work center will be reserved by PM orders for maintenance and this can be seen from capacity planning from PP side.

Deadline monitoring in preventive maintenance plan scheduling

Dear Experts,
we are having only single cycle time based & performance based preventive maintenance plans. The individual plans are weekly, monthly or based on specific counter readings. Now i want to schedule it automatically through IP30. since there are plans with different units like days or hours how can i schedule it through IP30? is it possible to run separate IP30 for counter based single cycle plans? Is it ok if I run the program on every midnight? I am confused on the scheduling through IP30. please give me the clarity...Please do the needful.
Thanks & best regards,
Praveen

Praveen,
Yes you can run IP30 with single cycle plans.
As IP30 can run for many hours (dependent upon number of plans) it is best to schedule the IP30 job at a time when there are fewest users on-line e.g. midnight on Saturday or Sunday. The timing is very much dependent upon your organisation.
[Here|http://www.sapfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=316910] is some good background info.
It should be someones responsibility in your organisation to review the scheduling log after every IP30 run

How to track reason for Preventive maintenance not completed?

Hi Gurus,
We know that when Maintenance plan was created then base on that maintenance call objects should be generated at particular date specified in Plan. I have requirement that due to certain reason (e.g. Machine not available due to production) if this preventive maintenance not completed at specified date, so how we can assign these reason for call objects (Notification/Order).
Thanks in advance......

I'd suggest using either
1) Confirmations with Reason Codes
or
2) Notifications with Catalog Codes
or
3) User Status profile on Orders.
EDIT: Note that for the former you might need to first have the Orders released, which might not be desirable, and you can't use this in conjunction with the "Do not complete" / "Wrap" / BABL transaction (to set status NCMP). The latter two options don't have this constraint.

Preventive Maintenance Schedule

Hi,
The issue is monthly as well yearly function wise preventive maintenance schedule is not generating automatically, Actually we uploaded the data in SAP for specific function wise as per monthly schedule, But right now we are not getting the schedule wise calls.
Production person put the entries as manually through the t-code IW38,
So, Where will be the mistake or any configuration setting is missing?
Please help.
Regards,
Althaf

Hi,
Hope your maintenace plan,task list and items within plan are in place.Also config is in place with no range,call object type as maintenace order,pm order type you have mentioned in plan etc.
If all of above are in place then check for following:
1. Check scheduling parameters for both monthly and yearly frequency jobs.Check scheduling period for monthly job it should be greeater than 1 month..suggest to put 365 days.
2.For yearly jobs your scheduling period should be greater than year,may be you can put 2-5 years so that system can do scheduling on this basis.
3.Possibly you can restart scheduling thr IP10.You can check scheduled calls by pressing schedule overview list.
4.You can lso check scheduling overview and do simulation through IP19.Give period in furture for plans and select maint plan simulation in start mode of maint scheduling overview.
5.If you are able to see calls in scheduling overview then there is a problem in your deadline monitoring.In IP30 check parameters Interval of call objects and it should be nearer to scheduling period you mentioned in IP19.You can crete two different variants for monthly and yearly jobs.So you will able to maintain to differnt IP30 parameters for them.
Please note unless you give detailed and exact problem we will not able to provide solution.
People will generally avoid to elaborate like above.So please try to limit and specific to your problem.

Triggering of Preventive Maintenance based on Measuring Point

Hi,
I have set measuring point & defined upper range limit and lower range limit. Now I want to trigger preventive maintenance, based on reading enter against measuring point specifically if measuring point reading is above or below defined upper range limit or lower range limit.
Letu2019s say example, If 10 and 5 is upper range limit and lower range limit, now in this case creation of notification / main order if user has enter measuring point value more than 10 or less than 5.

User exit IPRM0002 for preventive maintenance

user exit IPRM0002 for preventive maintenance
has anyone used this user exit? or BADI: BAdI: IPRM_MCP_SCHE_CHANGE ?
I seem to have some difficulty in knowing how to use these....
I need to basically be able to influence a calling date for next PMorder to be opened but documentation is not explanatory and, even if I do know what these exit/badi are used for, i do not understand how to use the parameters provided.
can anyone help?

Hi,
I dont think you would be able to test the exit if you dont implement them for the user exits simply passing the parameters wont help,actually there is a process of implementing a USER-EXIT i suppose u would already be familiar to it, I order to activate the exit you have to create a project in CMOD transaction and assign the enhancement to that and then also create the include that is avaliable inside the FM and there you would be able to put your code.
For the BAPIs ,yes the control should go inside the BADI once you put a breakd point inside the right method but there to you need to implement the BADI and then you can put your code in the method for the effects to take place and you can test.
The detail process of implementation are already avaliable on SCN, It seems that you dont have developer authorizations so i would suggest to take help from some one who has, Best of Luck:).
