Set field selection in maintenance plan

Please help me where i can set or remove the Equipment field as a mendatory in maintenance plan in SPRO
R.S Raghav

Hi R.S Raghav,
If the field Equipment is already mandatory in maintenance plan, then check in transaction OIAO, this is for notifications, (the equipment field may be made mandatory for Notification). You can make that as optional entry.
Check and revert back with your observations.

Mandatory field "Priority" for maintenance plan

Hi,
Setting mandatory fields on preventive maintenance plan is not possible in customizing.
So the alternative are:
     - User-exit as described above (TCode SMOD)
     - Transaction variants (TCode SHD0)
I've tried SMOD: this approach is not a user friendly option. The user get an error but the field are greyed out and need to click on cancel before the are able to enter data.
So I triend the screen variant (SHD0). But I'm having an issue on the field "Priority" (RMIPM-PRIOK). The dropdownlist is not working...
Does anyone has a workaround? I want to avoid development...
Thanks,
Laura

Hi Laura,
I understand that you are trying to make the Priority field (PRIOK) in maintenance item mandatory. It is a very simple task with User-Exit. Just put the following code in the include ZXPRMU06 of user-exit IPRM0004.
IF IMPOS_IMP-PRIOK IS INITIAL.
   MESSAGE: 'Please Fill the Priority field.' TYPE 'I'.
   RAISE NO_UPDATE.
ENDIF.
You will get this message and the Plan is refused to be saved until Priority Field is filled.
Your ABAPer will be able to do it in few seconds.

PS: Also for me SHD0 option has always been last resort.

Set Field Selection for Completion Confirmation

I want to change the indicator of one field from "ready to input" to "required"..But i couldnt understand exactly the hierarchy under "Set Field Selection for Completion Confirmation" tab in SPRO. there are 3 parts under that tab;
1-PM: Confirmation - initial screen
2-PM: Confirmation - list and detail
3-PM: Confirmation - parameter
and i also couldnt find the name of my field which is about "codes for causes"..
Thanks...

Russ,
I don't think it could be accomplished through configuration or through Transaction variants.
I think the simplest way to accomplish this would be by using one of the below user exits according to your needs.
CONFPM02: Customer-specific entry checks 1
CONFPM03: Customer-specific check by operation selection
CONFPM04: Customer-specific entry checks 2
The other option would be to use the Implicit enhancement functionality(If you are in EC C6.0 or above) to modify the table control field attributes dynamically.

Hi
Thanks for your reply. I have checked in both Maintenance Plan History and Job History and both Log File Summary windows are empty for this Maintenance Plan.
I have since tried to update to SP3 as per previous post but i am unable to do so. Currently i have SP2 installed (10.50.4033)
I am getting an error.
"There are no SQL Server instances or shared features that can be updated on this computer"
When i select an option on the shared features, the message reads " The version of SQL Server instance Shared Component does not match the version expected by the SQL Server update. The installed SQL Server product version is 10.52.4000.0 and the expected
version is 10.0.1600.22"

Per the error message, you are trying to install a SQL Server 2008 service pack on the SQL Server 2008 R2 instance. Please download SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 3 from below link and install it .

Maintance jobs with Maintenance plans - troubleshooting

Some of our old servers have maintenance jobs created with inbuilt mainteance plans. We find difficulty in troubleshooting these kind of jobs when it fails. Can anyone shed a detailed analysis of how to troubleshoot these jobs which are created with maintenance
plan like where to look, any system table/view that could help etc. The job history gives very minimal details and often result in cropped off messages.
I was told that if we alter the maintenace plans associated with the jobs and save it. It will break the job, is it so?

For SQL server 2000
You can check the failure logs either from jobs or Maintenance plan history
In enterprise manager, expand the server group
Expand the management folder and select the database maintenance plans
Right click the maintenance plan that failed and select the Maintenance plan history
Check for the failure occurred and double click the failed row to see more details or on failure
Similarly from SQL server 2005 onwards maintenance plan history, you can check from maintenance plan
In SSMS, connect to SQL instance
Expand the Management folder and select the maintenance plans
Select the maintenance plan and click on maintenance plan history and check for the failure

Tcode for checking the Maintenance Plan

Hello,
I want the transaction code for checking the list of maintenance plan for a particular plant. I went thru tcode IP03, IP16 but could not find the option of plant there..
Kindly guide..
Regards,
Naren

Naren,
As stated above, there isn't a plant field in the maintenance plan (only maintenance item, hence the reference ot IP17)
However, it is quite common to use the maintenance plan Sort field as a plant field by customising the table settings for each plant.

Order release on maintenance plan level

Hi,
Is it possible to have preventive maintenance order release on maintenance plan level instead of order type level?
Br,
Shrithar

In ECC 6.0 EHP 4 version, you have the option the setting release based on Maintenance plan.
http://help.sap.com/ERP2005_EHP_04/helpdata/EN/86/429EA7A6E945E18A09EE75D566E789/frameset.htm
From above link:
Maintenance plan not immediately released
You can set an indicator in the maintenance plan item to define that any orders created from the maintenance plan during scheduling are not released immediately. This overrides the "Set released status immediately" indicator in Customizing for the order type, if this indicator is set in Customizing.

Hi Anil
I have not checked in SAP, butif the hiding of the fields in not possible through SPRO, then an easy way to hide fields is to use GUixT, which comes with std. SAP.

IW42 - Overall Completion Confirmation - Field Selection

I have what seems to be a common requirement, but as yet have not found a good solution to it in standard SAP!
Following the creation of a profile for transaction IW42 - Overall Completion Confirmation, which includes the screen areas for notification Items, Causes and Activities the user has a requirement to make the catalog codes mandatory. The usual configuration settings in OIZN (Set field selection for completion confirmation) do not apply to these screen areas.
I'd appreciate any suggestions as to the simplest method of achieving.
Many thanks.

Russ,
I don't think it could be accomplished through configuration or through Transaction variants.
I think the simplest way to accomplish this would be by using one of the below user exits according to your needs.
CONFPM02: Customer-specific entry checks 1
CONFPM03: Customer-specific check by operation selection
CONFPM04: Customer-specific entry checks 2
The other option would be to use the Implicit enhancement functionality(If you are in EC C6.0 or above) to modify the table control field attributes dynamically.

Status "Inactive" set for maintenance plan.

Dear all,
while doing
Maintenance plan-->functions-->Activate<-->Inactive-->Deactive for maintenance plan
which field and Table we can able to get the details,Status "Inactive" set for maintenance plan.
Required
Changed by, Changed on , Deactivated field
Regards,
U.Linganathan

Please refer MPLA table to OBJNR value.
Refer JCDS & JEST tables to get the Inactive Maintenance plans.
If Status I0320 is active in JEST table, then that Maintenance plan is Inactive.
Pass INACT is not equal to "X" & OBJNR = "WO*" to get all Inactive Maintenance Plans OBJNR values. Pass that in MPLA table & get WARPL value.

There is no std config to acheive this. Please use IPRM0004 Maintenance plan/item: Customer check for "Save" to accomplish the same.
