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.
Regards,
Maheswaran.

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

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

Hi Thyaga,

Cause Code - Structure for Plant Maintenance Notification

Dear firends,
I am trying to create cause code group structure for a notification as follows,
--> Superior Level Cause Code Group ( XXXX)
                    - -> Cause Code Group (XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ... (1010)
In standard SAP we can create a Cause code group for a catalog then assign the Cause codes to the Cause code groups then assign to the Catalog profile ...and the structure looks like as follows (AS IS)
        - -> Cause Code Group(XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ...(1010)
But in my case i need to add one more level above the "Cause Code Group" as shown below ( TO BE)
--> Superior Level Cause Code Group ( XXXX)
                    - -> Cause Code Group (XXXX-SUB)
                                   - -> Cause Code ... (1010)
Please assist me is there any way to accomplish this requirement through user exit or something else.Thanks.

Babu,
Do the Divisions have its own Equipment base?          - Ans : NO
Do they create Notification for the same Equipment?   - ANS : YES
So, lets take the case 2 you mentioned ...
Case2:
If they are creating notification for a same equipment (EQ01 is common for all Divisions), you can create Defect code group with Division Name CHEMDEF1, CHEMDEF2,... BIODEF1, BIODEF2... etc ...
User has to select appropriate Defect code group and defect code.... If he enters Def code as Cause code group system will populate caused relevant for particular Def Code ...
Problem here is lets say the Defect Code Group CHEMDEF1 has two defect code A010 & A020 ,
                                                                              CHEMDEF2 has three defect code B010, B020 & B030.
I would like to bring this Defect Code Group CHEMDEF1 & CHEMDEF2 under DIV1 and Defect Code Group BIODEF1 & BIODEF2 under DIV2.
Example : The structure should look like this ..
                - DIV1 ( Superior level needs to be added on the Structure) - Will it be possible ?
                        - CHEMDEF1 ( Defect Code Group)
                                       - A010 ( Defect Code)
                                       - A020( Defect Code)
                        - CHEMDEF2( Defect Code Group)
                                       - B010( Defect Code)
                                       - B020( Defect Code)
                                       - B030( Defect Code)
                - DIV2 ( Superior level needs to be added on the Structure) - Will it be possible ?
                        - BIODEF1
                                       - C010
                                       - C020
                        - BIODEF2
                                       - D010
                                       - D020
                                       - D030
Please let me know.Thanks.

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.
Nagesh

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

Enterprise structure for construction business

Hi ,
Here the business case like this "We are implementing SAP for construction company , i have some doubt in enterprise structure becaue in construction company they don't have any perticular manufactureing Plant , there will be have different project site and these go on changeing as per the project period . So my question how to design logistic enterprise structure for construction business" and how to integrate these with PS
Edited by: Raghavendra Balegar on Jul 2, 2009 6:29 AM

Dear
1) Each project you can consider as a plant ( where u can valuate the stock at plant level),
2) and difeerent storage locations under plants depends on your material types like ROH,HALB,ERSA,FERT...ect
3)purchase organisations like if have a contracts create one referance pur.org and if require create one more pur.org at local purchases
4)PS consultant has to create each project as WBS element ,under WBS element networks, under networs activities
5) PS-MM integration
When ever Project people requires material as per their planning, they required to accocate the material to particulat activity say if they want cement they need to allocate cement to particulat activity ,
system intern will raise PR at activity level and reservation at newwork level ( item categoty should be L in PS)
base on the PR , purchasing people can create RFQ or PO ,GR,IR Like MM standard Procedure (PR account assignment will be Q orP)
based on the resevation GI will be done (m.type 281 Q)

Catalog Interface (OCI) - Customizing for Plant Maintenance order ERP2005

Hello Experts,
we want to use the integration between SRM and ERP2005. In the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5d/0eba5fa0084247acbb0c04cede18e8/frameset.htm">sap documentation</a>sap documentation I found the following:
'In the Customizing for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service or in the Customizing for Project Systems, you entered the required data about the catalog that you want to connect to the SAP R/3 system. You can find the corresponding IMG activities under Interface for Procurement Using External Catalogs (OCI).'
However I can`t find this IMG activities in our ERP2005 system.
What`s wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
U. Wieland

Hi! Additional we had to generate the img new.
Unfortunaetly I haven`t a idee how does this work. (Our sap basis did this.)
Through the assign from catalog to order type, I think it nessary to use the pm-img-activities...
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
->Maintenance and Service Processing
->Maintenacne and Service Oders
->Interface for Procurement Using Catalogs (OCI)

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

CATS for plant maintenance

Hi Guys,
I need your advice:-
We are on ECC 6 environment, the time system is running on 3rd party and payroll is on r/3, now the management decided to Implement CATS for plant maintenance (Activity based cost). So let me know is there is a feasibility to do so. If so, Please advice, your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Babu

What type of time evaluation do you do ? PM
CATS are very much feasible with PS and activity types and you can transfer costs against activities, orders, networking elements and WBS elements. --Understandable
You said Time is captured by third party, which sub system is this? Legacy
CATS doesn't have any relation with 3rd party, ---Understandable. My? Can we make two process same time. Legacy and CATS ( My concern is about IT007 and Work schedule)
CATS users are different from swipe card users: Understandable
it depends on your design and requirement to comment on the feasibility at your end.
but on a general scale , CATS is feasible in transferring activity based cost and post it into FI and CO: Understandable
Requirement:
Need to implement CATS, to get work order, Time, and Employee name etc.
My question is where in SAP I can store the data enter through CATS, If I use IT0007, I may redundant the data at HR side which is using 3rd party data to run payroll, or using 2001, 2002 and 2005.
So, How can I use CATS Independently. Please advice. Thanks
