Technical objects

Hi All,
I need to implement SAP PM system for an oil refinery .I need to structure & map their technical
system .Can anyone please let me know what are the main criteeria I need to keep in mind before
creating functional location & equipments?Normally , we map moveable objects as equipment & non-
moveable objects as functional location.What are the other criteria to address plant technical
system using functional location & equipments?
Also,in components tab of a maintenance order,how can we default component item category as "L"
& a specific storage location " XXXX" in case of freely assigned material?What are the various
options available for this requirement?This requirement is for freely assigned material as in
many cases equipment BOM are not available.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Default Item category can be defined at plant level.
Maintenance & Service Processing => Maintenance & Service Order => General Data => Define Default value for component item categories
There for the material type & plant combination, item category can be defined.
Regarding technical object structuring:
1. As refineries will be having very complex machinaries, sub equipments may be defined. In this case, client should be clear enough at what level they want to maintain the cost & maintenance history. If they want to maintain at main equipment level only, then you can create the sub equipments as object parts.
2. If they have defined sub equipments, then Availability of the equipment should be arrived at properly. There will be some equipments, which got repaired will make either the superior equipment or sub equipment also in idle condition. That equipment cant be used for any purpose.
Then while creating the notification for the equipment which got breakdown, notification should be created for the linked equipment either upwards or downwards, so that, if you want to see only the available equipment, you can see the exact list.

Maheswaran.

Copy from VBRP to technical object Serial Number in Sales Order

Hi SAP colleagues,
I need some help in the following issue. Hopefully somebody can assist. In a F2 invoice in the field VBRP-CHARG, the serial number of the product is available. In the business of my client, many return orders exist (KR, RE, etc.). The return order is created while referencing to the billing document. At this moment SAP users (transaction VA01) must fill in the serial number manually via Extra -> Technical Objects. Regularly people forget to do this or use an incorrect serial number. This leads to all kind of problems further on in the process.
The question is: how can this process be automatized? So the serial number which is available in VBRP-CHARG, should be copied automatically into the return order in the technical object area in the field SERNR.
Who knows how to solve this technically in SAP?
Best regards,
Paul

Hi Karan,
First of all thanks a lot for your answer. Unfortunately it is more complex... The batch number which is available in VBRP-CHARG should be copied into the Technical Object area in the sales order. Menu path: Extra -> Technical Objects. So this is equipment functionality related to sales orders. So copying using copy control from VBRP to VBAP or VBAK will not solve the problem. Do you have any idee how this can be achieved (tables like SER02, OBJK are relevant)?
Best regards,
Paul

Check on Technical Objects when saving VA41/VA42 (Enhancement for SD)

Hi All,
I need to check whether a particular Equipment/Tech Object is already linked to any other existing Sales Document based on Sales Doc Type while saving. If so i need to raise an error and stop the VA41/VA42 Save.
I tried USER EXIT SAVE DOCUMENT PREPARE under SAPMV45A but i cant access the Tech Objects attached which is under SAPLIWOL.
Kindly advise me how to access Tech Objects data from SAPMV45A under SAVE DOCUMENT PREPARE or any better option is there.
Thanks,
Saleem BEC

Instead of validating technical object, you can try to validate the technical field name which would be very much available in the user exit.

Urgent - BDC program to update technical objects using transaction VA42

Hi,
Currently my program updates technical objects details at item level as well as BOM header level.
But my client insists on updating at contract level i.e when u go to va42 transaction and without selecting any item, we need to go to menu,technical objects where the client wants all the items to be displayed.
How to do this way?, is it possible, please advise on this regard.
Very urgent!
Thanks in advance
Anandh.B

I went into va42 and tried to extras->technical objects but it saying to select the item. Without selecting any item it is not going into technical objects.
You can only do BDC if is possible manually, since its not possible you cannot do BDC for that.
Cheers,
Satya

Create contact on technical object??

Hi Experts,
We are implementing SAP CRM 7.0 for a utilities company. Our client has the following requirement: They want to log contacts on technical objects, especially on an installation. This contact should not be linked to a business partner.
A consultant from SAP told our client this would be new functionality in 7.0. We doubt this is standaard SAP functionality in 7.0.
What do you think?
Kind Regards,
Simon

Hello NPB,
I would suggest you to go with the personal list for every user. User can prepare it by clicking on the icon and add that p
particular entry in his personal list. Next time when ever he will press F4, system will show only personal list not the other
entries. It is the sixth icon from left in the drop down list.
Hope this helps you.

Navigate to technical objects programatically

Hi Folks,
We are developing an internal tool for developers in our team. The tool will produce output of a technical objects list. It can be program,Function Module,Class methods, DB table,BADI,Exits(pre/post/OVR), Implicit enhancements etc
Is there any way to porgramatically handle the navigation when the user clicks on the object name other than doing recording for and filling BDC tab for each object type.
Regards
Arshad

You can use cl_wb_worklist along with RS_TOOL_ACCESS for this purpose.
This example code, shows how to do this for a program. This can be extended for other objects also.
report navigation_example.
data:lcl_wrklist type ref to cl_wb_worklist,
      i_wrklist type wbworklist,
      l_wrkitem type wbworkitem.
l_wrkitem-id-type = 'P'.
l_wrkitem-id-name = sy-cprog. "Program name to navigate to
l_wrkitem-state-line = 2. "Navigation position of the program
append l_wrkitem to i_wrklist.
lcl_wrklist = cl_wb_worklist=>get_worklist( sy-uname ).
call method lcl_wrklist->clear.
call method lcl_wrklist->add_objects
exporting
    p_objects = i_wrklist.
call method lcl_wrklist->store.
call function 'RS_TOOL_ACCESS'
exporting
    operation    = 'SHOW'
    object_name = sy-cprog
    object_type = 'PROG'
    with_worklist = 'X'.
call method lcl_wrklist->clear.

Technical objects required to be mandatory in service contract VA41

Hi
I've got exactly the same issue as the one described in the thread.
Technical objects required to be mandatory in service contract VA41
Unfortunately for me it has never been answered, and seems to be quite old now.
Does anybody knows how it could be set or developed?
Regards
Olivier

Through standard configuration, it is not possible. However, you can try with any of the following exits
USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP or
USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT
in the program MV45AFZZ where your technical team needs to validate those required fields as mandatory which is quite possible through coding.

Incompletion Log(Service Contracts-Technical Objects)

Dear Experts,
Our Requirement is to include Equipment (Technical Objects) in the Service Contract - Incompletion Log. We could not find the Equipment Details. Please post your thoughts.
Regards,
shareeq

Hi Zakaria,
I know it is possible to make it compulsory when introducing a service material in the service contract. You should check transaction OISD. Here you should check fields RTYP (02) and ROBJ (02) .
"The reference type determines whether you can or must specify a technical reference object when you create a service order automatically, or whether you can generate a service order without a technical reference object."
I hope this will help you.

Import of technical objects (connecion object, premise, pod)

Hello together,
I would like to import technical objects in SAP CRM for Utilities. We are using version 7.0 with EHP 1. In SAP CRM 7.0 wtih EHP 1 the report ECRM_ISU_IMPORT_TECHOBJ exists to import technical objects.
I tried to use this report but couldn't create technical objects with it. After I had completed the excel form and pushed the button to import technical objects I got the notification, that all objects have been created successfully. But neither in Webclient UI nor in the applicable tables the technical objects can be found.
Interestingly, this report also exists in SAP CRM 7.0 without EHP 1. When I use it there the technical objects will be created properly. With the same data I used to complete the excel sheet in SAP CRM with EHP 1.
Also debugging showed no abnormalities.
Does anybody have an idea or suggestion to solve this issue? If some documentation should be on this, it would be even helpful. Unfortunately I could not find any.
Thanks in advance!
Sebastian

Hi,
Ok, so we can say 0TCTUSERNM is consistent in D/Q/P systems - that means you don't need to transport it. So I think the best approach is remove it from your request so it will not impact current P system.
Please go to SE09 of your DEV system, create a new workbench request. Put your cursor on the new request and choose menu 'Request/task' -> Object List -> Include Objects... and input your original request number.
Now you should be able to see all objects have been added to the new request. Find out 0TCTUSERNM and remove it from the request.
Transport the request again to Q and P system. There might be errors on Q system but I think it will not impact P system.
Regards,
Frank

Is there a BAPI which update this Info. I am using the BAPI BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATEFROMDATA, to create it, but it does not accept the Technical objects.

Try the following function modules for updating equipment / functional location
ITOB_EQUIPMENT_CREATE,
ITOB_EQUIPMENT_MODIFY

Adding Technical objects (equipment) in sales contract

Hi Gurus!,
I trying to add an equipment in a sales contract (Extras / Technical Objects) but the system gives the message V1 192 (Serial number profile is missing for material 212 in plant 0001), the material is a maintenance service, and the equipment has a serial number, Why a the system checks the serial profile of material master data?
Best regards,
Amparo

Dear Prase,
As you have explained, that´s the case you sale material as equipment, but in our case we sale a service maintenance over a client equipment. Does not logical create a serial number related to service material.
Thanks in advance for your help.
