Hi All,
I have one scenario pls guide how we can do it in SAP PM.
I have three maintenance plants but none of them is having planning plat situated in their premises. Planning plant is totally different entity. It works for all three maintenance plants along with their own workcenters.
In above case, can we create only planning plant irrespective of maintenance plant/logistics plant??
Can we assign work centers to only planning plant??
SundarHi
The details below is taken from the SAP IDES. These definition will be enough for you to get a conclusion...
The maintenance planning plants must first have been created as normal plants.
If all the plants in your organizational structure are also maintenance planning plants, then you must include each of these plants as a maintenance planning plant.
Recommendation
You should then always use maintenance planning plants if the maintenance planning is carried out centrally for several plants in one plant. If, from a PM perspective, each plant stands alone, then each plant is also its own planning plant.
Assign the differing maintenance planning plants to the maintenance plants
In Plant Maintenance, a distinction is made between the organizational units "planning plant" and "maintenance plant".
Maintenance plant
In a maintenance plant, you can manage technical objects and main work centers.
Planning plant
In the planning plant, maintenance task lists are defined for the respective maintenance plants, material planning is carried out on the basis of bills of material in task lists and orders, maintenance plans are managed and scheduled, maintenance notifications are created and maintenance orders can be handled.
Technical objects and main work centers can be created in the planning plant just as in the maintenance plant.

BOM is not getting displayed in case of centralized planning plant.
Dear All,
there are 2 plants for which we have centralized planning. the users have created Equipment BOM for the two plants. but in case of the second plant for which the planning plant is different from the maintenance plant, the BOM is not getting displayed in the Maintenance Order (i.e. in the components tab).
kindly through some light on it. whether i have to do some settings for it.
Regards,
Ritesh KapoorHi,
Yes while using IH01, i have ticked the BOM explosion option, but when i am giving the plant there then only it is displaying the BOM of that equipment.
Also when i am creating an order for the same equipment, then it does not displays the BOm & shows the message which i have written in my previous mail.

More than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.?
hi Friends, can we have more than one Planning plant for a maintenance plant.Is there any advantage or disadvantage of this condition.?
Hi,
You can have Maintenance Planning Plant & Maintenance Plant in any of the follwing ratios, i.e., 1:1 / 1:n / n:1. Actually in Maintenance, there can be electrical & mechanical maintenance.
In the case of 1:1 relation, all the maintenance activities (Electrical & Mechanical) will be planned by single Maintenance Planning Plant for single Maintenance Plant.
In case of 1:n, single maintenance planning plant will do the plaaning of maintenance activities for all the maintenance plants.
In case of n:1, electrical activity will be planned by one Maintenance planning plant & mechanical activities by another planning plant for a single Maintenance plant.
Defining Maintenance planning plant & maintenance plant in different relations will help us in generating different kind of reports.
I am looking forward your reply.

How to Configure a New Plant in SAP?
Plant 0001 is the SAP default provide for your reference.
OX14 - Define Valuation Area (Tick one only- Once your system go live, no more changes)
Most company take the SAP recommended choice - Value Material Stock at Plant level
Value Material Stock at Plant or Company Level
If you valuate material stocks at plant level, the plant is the valuation area.
If you valuate material stocks at company code level, the company code is the valuation area.
The decision you make applies to the whole client.
OX10 - Create / Change / View Plants
OVXB - Create / Change / View Division
OX18 - Assign Plant to company code
e.g. 0001 - 0001 - All Plants
Px1 - Plant Px1
Px2 - Plant Px2
OX19 - Assignment of company code to the Controlling Area
OB38 - Assign company code to Credit Control Area
OMJ7 - Assign business area to Plant/Valuation area and division
e.g. Plant Px1 - Business Area Bx1
Bx2
Assign Valuation area to the Business Area
.e.g. Valuation area Vx1 - Business Area Bx1
Business Area Bx2
OMS0 - Assign Factory Calendar to the Plant and Business Area

Plant for PR in case of Centralized planning plant
Dear All,
In case of centralized planning, if a Service PR is created then it is taking the plant as the planning plant & not the maintenance plant.
For example: Maintenance pLant A & Maintenance Plant B have a common planning plant as "A" & if a PR is created for maintenance plant "B" then it is taking the plant as "A" & not the other.
please suggest where we can change the plant in case of service pr created through the maintenance order.
Regards,
RiteshHi,
The planning plant will always be passed to the purchase requisition as you have found. Only alternative is to use a user exit
For components use exit COZF0002 (EXIT_SAPLCOZF_002). The exit is called on creating purchase requisitions for components from PM/CS orders. Customer exit COZF0001 can be used for external operations.
This exit allows change of fields in structure EBAN_ORD_CUST. Field WERKS is not included in this structure but you can append this field to the structure. After that you have to add a line into your exit (example):
... move afvgd-werks to EBAN_ORD_CUST-WERKS...
Through this method it should be possible to change the plant on the requisition.

How to change planning plant in Maintenance order
Hi experts ...
In maintenance order , depending on equipment , the planning plant gets defaulted . If Equipment is installed in another FL whose planning plant is different , the order's planning plant doesn't change (Greyed) . Is there anyway to change planning plant in orders
NPBWe have maitenance and planning plant same .Equipment was in maintenance plant XYZ and planning plant XYZ earlier . Now the same equipment is in maintainance plant ABC and planning plant ABC . In order , I am able to change maintenance plant to ABC , but unable to change the planning plant to ABC .
If I do not change planning plant and change only maintenence plant , what are the effects in cost reporting ? Since ultimately cost is settled to equipment cost center (which is now changed to ABC cost center) , I feel there will not be any effect . Old planning plant may only affect search right ? ....Please advise ...

Change planning plant in production order
Hi Gurus,
my business scenario is the following:
I have 2 plants that are assigned to 2 different company codes. Plant A (ordering plant) and Plant B (supplying plant).
The users place a sales order on plant A and through MRP with special procurement key 80 the planned order is turned into a production order in plant B.
But in the order confirmation the system tries to post the GR in plant A. Is there a way to change the planning plant of the production order at any time i.e in order creation or order confirmation? Because I need the GR against the production order to be done in plant B. Since the subsequent posting according to the business scenario would be after production, the goods should be sold from Plant A to Plant B via a sales order.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
PanosHi Panos,
SPK 80 doesn't suit your requirement, since by design it is doing GR in the ordering plant.
Alternatively you need to work with a SPK like 40, that is stock transfer from B to A. Just set up the intercompany process for this stock transfer.
This way, when MRP in A detects a need for replenishment, a stock transfer requisition from B to A is created. Then MRP in B will create a planned order for production (that you will convert into a production order later). GR is in B. The stock transfer requisition is converted into a stock transfer order, and the actual transfer takes place.

Effect of Planning Plant in Tasklist
Dear All,
I having one query related to Tasklist in PM
There are two Plants X and Y
Earlier tasklist created for Planning plant as X at header level.
Now Planning plant X has been closed , Instead of that need to use Planning plant Y.
There is no issue related to maintenance work cernter and associated Plant.
In my PM order Planning plant only showing at operations level only.
At header level planning plant can't be change , Is there any issue if i will use old one planning plant ??
Please advise the effect of Planning Plant.
Thanks,
AbhishekGreetings Abhishek,
For starters, if you do not migrate the Task Lists into the new Planning Plant, you will not be able to select them when including the Task List in a new Work Order, or assign them to a Maintenance Item, if they are created for the new Planning Plant. And the Maintenance Order or Item has the Planning Plant on Header level.
Therefore, as recommended by Pete Atkin, you ought to migrate all your old Planning Plant X Task Lists into Planning Plant Y. It's also a good opportunity to cleanse your data.
PS. Pete, my sincere congratulations on the well-deserved Diamond! -

No Authorization for Planning plant in MIGO
Hi Gurus,
I have an issue for the Goods Receipt for multiple line items of account assigned( F) PO.
When user try to receive goods thru MIGO, system throws an error (dump) saying "NO AUTHORIZATION FOR PLANNING PLANT XXX" even though roles are assigned to the user.
I went thru the OSS note 385830 but it hardly helped me.
Pls throw some light on the issue...
Regards
ShashidharHi,
Check for the Authorization Object that system is referring for the error in SU53 transaction. You may process the transaction and once the error comes, go to transaction SU53 check for the Authorization object there.
You can check the roles available for a given authorization object in SUIM transaction.
