Revision in Maintenance notification
Dear Experts,
I have face a problem regarding Revision "VIQMEL-REVNR" field showing in Start dates screen field in maintenance notification in developement client. Checked OIAL, it is found that tick on "Input" and not on "Hide".
But in quality client, OIAL condition is same as above tick on "Input" and not on "Hide", but in maintenance notification it is hidden.
Kindly help on this issue. Is there any other settings for the revision?
Regards,
Tushar
Hi,
Note [794920|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/794920] removes the unwanted display of this revision field on notification. Check and apply this if not contained in your patch level. The revision field should not appear on notification.

Problem in creation of Maintenance Notification.
Hi All,
I have a requirement to create a maintenance notification through BAPI. When I tried to create it by bapi 'BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE' , I am having one issue.
Whenever we create a notification by T-code 'IW21' there is one flag for 'Put in Progress' which changes the phase of notification from 'Outstanding' to 'In Progress'. But whenever I am creating with the help of BAPI this notification is deirectly going to 'In progress' Phase. I have checked all the parameters of this BAPI but didn't found any such flag.
So If anybody have solution like how to create initially notification in Outstanding phase and later if we need to change it how to change it, please help me out.
Thanks in Advanced.Deepak,
Can you please elaborate your query.
What all fields are you passing in this BAPI and what the program you are using this BAPI.

Skip the Creation of Maintenance Notification
I would like to know the effect if i will skip or remove the process of creation of Maintenance notification in SAP PM. The process will start with the creation of Order, if there's an external service required the Maintenance Order will be converted into PO if no external service or material will close the Order.
Since the Creation of Maintenance Order will generate Notification, we were thinking that creation of Notification is redundant if the system allows to create order and notification in one transaction.
What would be the effect of this, thanks and God bless.Greetings Peach,
As the experts, who had already answered observed, this is purely a business process consideration. If your (Client's) organization supports a "streamlined" process in which direct Order creation is beneficial you can go for it.
As you've written "Since the Creation of Maintenance Order will generate Notification, we were thinking that creation of Notification is redundant if the system allows to create order and notification in one transaction." I assume you are still using Notification and Order integration. But as Yogesh Dhokne mentioned, this is optional as well.
If you choose to create a Notification in the background, you can still register breakdown times for MTTF/MTBF calculations, Catalog Codes for tracking and any additional information once the Orders are created.
But consider this: How is work requested, released for execution and reported? If you only create Orders, you have only Orders to go on. Therefore, you might require more verbose User Status management, and you may find yourself with Orders that are being created unnecessarily and have to be closed, Orders being released prematurely... You have to have a very "flat" process around this immediate Order creation.
On the other hand, consider that having Notifications created prior means a more "deep" process and more overhead, but you can have a step to filter works to be released on the Notification level before Orders are created, if you have more than one Notification for the same work, you can assign it to a single Order, and you have more options when designing roles and authorizations, since you can separate access and business transactions for Notifications and Orders for your Operations and Maintenance users, if necessary.
Please ask further questions if you have any! -
Search option in catalog selection in maintenance notification item, object
Dear Experts,
I have a problem to search & choose the relevent catalog codes in maintenance notification item, in catalog selection pop up when F4 done on object part. Is there any setting to find the relevent codes from the cataloge selection screen or any setting for the FIND option availabilty on the catalog selection pop up.
We are using ECC 5.0.
Kindly provide the solution.
Regards,
TusharTushar,
Your emphasis is on Relevant Codes. This means codes relevant to the Technical Object (Equipment or Functional Location)
For this purpose only SAP has given the functionality Catalog Profile.
Create a Catalog Profile (OQN6) in which you mention the codes relevant to the technical object.
Now mention this Catalog Profile in the Organisation tab of the Technical object. (Equipment or Functional Location).
After this whenever you create a notification on such Equipments/FLs, you will get only those catalogs which you've mentioned in the Catalog Profile
Hope this helps you.
Regards
Jogeswara Rao
PS: Creating a catalog Profile is a IMG activity, which you have to do in Client 200> generate a request> and transport this request to the client of your working. -
Completion date for manually created maintenance notification
Hi All,
When closing maintenance notification created manually by t-code- IW21,there is no field to enter completion date & time. System is proposing the current date as completion date by default. However , as I have flagged u201Ccompletion datau201D in maintenance plan category for notification ,system is asking/proposing completion date/time during NOCO of preventive maintenance.
Where I can do settings in configuration so that system will ask/propose to enter completion date/time during NOCO of manually created notification by t-code IW21?
rgds
rajibIn notification type views you have option to set Reference date & time- if you set it to A- Malfunction start date & time will
be proposed, if you set it to B- Notification receipt date & time will be proposed, if you set it to C- Malfunction end time will
be proposed, & in case of D - current date & time of completion of notification will be proposed while completing notification.
Better set it to B & make the field malfunction start date & time mandatory so that your history will be with reference to malfunction start. Or you can set it to A, C or D as per your requirement

Triggering of maintenance notification automatically
Hi friends,
I have a scenario which needs triggering a maintenance notification automatically. I have 3 measuring points for a equipment. I take measurement readings for these 3 measuring points using 3 measurement docs( say the measurement readings be x, y and z).I need to trigger a notification when (x+y-z)/z >2%. This is very much similar to condition based maintenance where maint. notifications are triggered when the upper or lower limits of the measuring point are reached . But here the problem is
I have 3 measuring points for the equipment and one by one I am creating the measurement docs for the measuring point. The system should calculate using the formula as soon as the last measurement doc is saved and based on the value. ie if >2% trigger a maintenance notification .(The challenge is 3 measurement docs are involved and how to link these 3 measurement docs and calculate value using the above formula).
The client will be taking readings every day twice for the 3 measuring points based on which he will decide if the machine needs to be recalibrated. Hope the scenario is clear.
Thnaks and best regds
ArunHi Arun
Can you share more details.What are these measurement points & their Units.
Based on your inputs it seems you are trying to link all the measurement points with some formulas which is not an out of the box functionality of standard SAP , the solution could be to develop a customized program
You might have to store all the readings with ref to technical object in a customized table & write the relevant formula in the program.
Talk to your ABAPER for this

Maintenance Notifications BAPI
Hello everyone,
I need a bapi to create Maintenance Notifications using .NET Connector. The closest bapi I have found is Bapi_Servicenotificat_Create, but only works for Service Notifications, so I need to create a custom bapi that creates Maintenance Notifications and then use it in my application, is there a way to do this not from scratch? Can I use some internal SAP function for creating Maintenance Notifications as a model to build my own bapi? Or does anyone have another suggestion to do this?
Best regards,
Rafael PoggiSAP 4.7 and higher includes the BAPI MaintNotificBAPIs. For SAP 4.6 we are using the RFC included in the Mobile Asset Management to access maintenance notifications. The RFC are called ALM_PM_NOTIFICATION_CREATE, ALM_PM_NOTIFICATION_MODIFY, etc.

Hi All,
Can anyone help me in this
When Maintenance Notification is created from General Notification , Work flow to notify the person who has submitted the request.We can use the Created by field on the associated notification field to identify the person.
Thanks in Advance,
Ram.Hi,
You can use the WF_INITIATOR container element available as part of the Workitem.
you dont have to refer the CREATED field in the Notification table.
Hope this helps.

Generating Purchase Req. / Purchase Ord. from Maintenance Notification
Hi all,
Is there any way we can create a purchase requisition(PR) or purchase order(PO) from a Maintenance Notification? I know we can create PR/PO from Maintenance Order but our client doesn't want to take that route.
To add more info, the piece of equipment for which the notification will be raised, is created with a link to a material in MM (Serial Data tab in equipment master). We also have a vendor partner attached to the equipment as well as notification. We need to generate PR/PO from the maintenance notification which is raised for this piece of equipment.
Any help / pointers / suggestions are welcome.Thanks Pete
Is there one, or many PRs to a single notification
There needs to be only one PR for a single notification. The notification pertains to only one piece of equipment, and once the PR -> PO -> GR cycle is completed, the notification will be closed. Next time, if the equipment fails, a new maintenance notification will be created. So, yes, there will be only one PR for a maintenance notification.
How will you handle missing data e.g. vendor, material, etc
The material no. for that particular piece of equipment is maintained in the equipment master (material field in the Serial number view). Also, we maintain vendor number under partners for the equipment master data. We should be able to use these while creating PR from notification. At least that's what is our initial thought. Please correct me on this.
What will be the account assignment for the PR
I'm not sure about this one though, I'll confirm with the MM consultant and update this reply.
Will the notification user-status be update on PO creation, GR, IR, etc
Yes, thanks for bringing this up. The client intends to use this functionality to check the availability of the equipment. So, not only the notification's user status should update based on PO status, but also the piece of equipment's user status should also get updated when the notification is closed and the piece of equipment is available.
Will the notification be referenced in the PR/PO
Not exactly, but there should be a report available which will list all the PRs / POs raised for maintenance of a particular piece of equipment. So, if notification is linked to PR/PO, we may be able to generate this report easily. Again, correct me if I'm wrong on this.
Do you want to limit who can create the PRs
Well, if we are talking about auto-creation from notification, then only the person releasing the Notification will be able to generate PR indirectly. If it is manual creation, then yes, we will need to restrict this authority to limited people.
Please let me know if these responses help you understand my requirement and give any other possible solution. -
