Scheduling and external scheduling in plant maintenance
hi expert ,
can you explain the scheduling in plant maintenance step by step beside external scheduling and how to made the external scheduling in IDS system also i read the sap help links about external scheduling and add the external scheduling in the order type pm01 and add the:
Function Module PM_ORDER_EXTERN_SCHED_DIALOG in Configure Communication in the (D: For scheduling in dialog with external scheduling) should be dialog box Scheduling agreement appears after the order has been scheduled and this is not appear and information message (Link to the scheduling system could not be built) is appear.
is any configuration missing.
thanks sadin
Hi,
I understand you want to practice in IDES. But to work with external scheduling you need a third party system that performs the scheduling. The idea of this type of scheduling is that the SAP ERP system interfaces with this other system (for example Click Software). It is this interfaced system that calculates the scheduling dates and passes them back to SAP.
Without such a third party system you cannot perform external scheduling. You error does indicate that it cannot communicate with such a system:

View labor and material costs in plant maintenance work order
Hi
I am aware we can bring in the costs in the work order through Activity types and assigning the costs to the acitvity type.
Is there anyway we can bring in the actual cost for the work performed by the associate? should we link the work center to HRMS?
Please advise. I need your valuable input for all the points below.
Main points that need to be addressed:
1. Each associate that is capable of confirming hours to a work order needs to be assigned an hourly rate that is reflective of the actual cost for the work performed by this associate. These hours are then tracked through the work order to give a cost for labor assigned to that particular job.
2.Any materials used in the performance of the required task(s) dictated by the work order will be assigned to that order. These materials can be assigned through SAP purchase requisitions, tool crib spot buys, or procurement with a purchase card.
3.Standard reports need to be created so we can track the total maintenance costs for any level of the equipment hierarchy as currently set up in SAP. When this report is created it should show the total maintenace costs for all the levels of the equipment hierarchy broken down into labor cost and material cost. I am using Tcode IW37N and IW40 . Is there any suggestion?Greetings Chandra,
1) You will need to create Work Centres for your associates and create the Activity Types. You can default the Activity Type for each Work Centre and maintain the rate for the activity via t-code KP26 planning.
2) Planned and unplanned Purchase Requisitions for Components with category N will debit the order with material costs. But what do you mean by "tool crib spot buys" and "procurement with a purchase card"? You may need to develop a solution to do such postings to the Order (or for purposes of Cost controlling, manual activity allocation similar to confirming work may be desired such as Manual Activity Allocations via CO transactions (KB21N), unless you can cover that with Purchase Requisitions and POs with "F Order" account assignment.
3) MCI8 Cost Report should be suitable for you, once you set up the Value Categories & Cost Key Figures.

Implement the exit IPRM0005 to schedule preventive plant
Hi,
I've implemented and activated the user exit IPRM0005 to schedule the preventive maintenance plant .
Which tx do I have to execute to pass across the code to modify the performance of the maintenance plant?
Thanks in advance
Kind regards¡¡Hi,
Look for the Program running behind Txn Code IP10 using Txn Code SE93, or use the Path on the TXn First Screen .....Menu Bar : System->Status look for the Program name, and double click on that.....Use String Search for your User Exit "IPRM0005"........and look for the code of the User Exit.... -
I've been asked to investigate the feasibility and steps involved in integrating Plant Maintenance to SRM.
I've looked at the standrard documentation and it appears that this is pretty straightforward.
Can anyone give me any pointers on the following:
1) What BAPIs etc are used to transfer the PReq from the backend to SRM.
2)What are the require configuration settings ?
3)Are there any attributes that need to be maintained within the org plan?
Regards
KeithHi,
In addition to Marcin answer, you can connect your catalog directly to PM in transaction IW31 and IW32.
There is also a scenario to connect PM with SRM without external requirement configuration.
This is the "old way" and "abandonned" by SAP: please see here :

Plant Maintenance to External Service Requirement (MM-SRV)
Hi,
Kindly tell me how to create a MM-SRV Purchase Requisition from Enterprise Asset Management (Plant Maintenance).
eg. A plant maintenance order (IW31) is created for repair of a transformer. It requires external service procurement with following structure.
Service Item D: Transformer repair

Service Line 10: Oiling 5 hr, 20 eur
Outline 30: Reassembly
Service Line 10: Junior Technician 15 hr, 10 eur
Service Line 20: Senior technician 10 hr, 15 eur
Kindly tell me how Purchase Requisition can be created with service structure from Plant Maintenance.
Thanks & Regards,
AshishIn IW31, select the Order type. Select the Planning Plant.
give the main work center & Functionla location of performing the services
Click on the operations tab, select the Control Key PM03 Plant maintenance-External(services). Enter the operation short text. Select the line item & click on External Icon (at bottom of page)
Give the details such as material group, purchase group, Purchase organization , requisitioner.
Create the service lines & Save the data. Order gets created. goto IW32 & release the order.

Plant Maintenance - Linkage between Task List and Maintenance Plan
Sir,
In Plant Maintenance, I have an equipment for which there are 9 maintenance activities that have to be performed every year. Out of these 4 activities will be carried out every month. 1 activity will be carried out during the months of February, June and October. 5 activities will be carried out only in the month of December.
I need to create Task List for all these activities and subsequently create Maintenance Plans for all these Task Lists.
Can I group all the 4 activites which will be carried out every month into one single Task List, with separate operation nos and time against each activity?. I don't know whether it is correct or not.
If I use the above method I can create 3 Task Lists for this particular equipment with same Group no and 3 Group Counters.
How to create Maintenance Plan for the above scenario?.
Eventhough, 4 activites are carried out every month and they have been grouped into a single Task List (Group counter 1) and if these activites are carried out on different dates within a month how can I create Maintenance Plan and subsequently create a Maintenance Order?.
I need some help in this regard. A detailed reply will be helpful.
Can anyone throw some light in this regard.
Regards,
R. Vijayakumaryou need to create one task list with a maintenance strategy with packages and hierarchy to outline the work requirements i.e. some tasks to be carried out 3 monthly some 4 monthly etc, and also if common tasks appear in 3 monthly package vs 4 monthly package then to suppress the duplicating task
you would then define a strategy based maintenance plan and run it to get the respective maintenance orders -
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.
