Hello Dheeraj,

Request you to search first in the SDN previous threads to get answer for such FAQs.

For you quick reference:-

The device number is created in MM with the function Goods Receipt. At the utility company, the device is labeled with this number. The device number can also be generated when you create a device in IS-U. The device is identified by a unique material and serial number combination to distinguish it from other pieces of material that may have the same serial number. The equipment number is the same throughout the whole system. Equipment is from SAP PM Component.

Hope this helps you out.

Regards

Sachin

Hi Dheeraj,

Equipment is the PM equivalent of Device in IS-U. Whenever you create a device in IS-U, an equipment is created in PM by the system. The equipment details can be viewed in the table EQUI.

Hope this helps
