Budget used up from Funds Centre and WBS

[Former Member]

Dear Sir,

We are creating  Plant Maintenance Work Order which has WBS maintained as Account Assignment under "location" tab and in the "Additional Data" tab of the WO also we have maintained the same WBS element.

When we use a material for this WO, and do MIGO, system is using up the budget from the WBS as well as from the Funds Centre which is attached to the cost centre of header equipment.

We tried activating the function module FMDT_READ_MD_WBS_ELEMENT in FMDERIVE,but still it eats up budget from both WBS and Funds Centre.

I could not understand the use of another function module FMDT_CONVERSION_WBS_INT_TO_EXT, but we tried activating even this function module in FMDERIVE, but still same result....

Can you kindly guide

Thanks

Hi Friends,

We found a way around...

We maintained a derivation rule in FMDERIVE wherein we derive a

dummy Commitment Item for PM Orders. Means against that particular PM

Order - we derive "X" Funds Centre and Dummy Commitment Item

And it worked. it did not consume the Funds Mgmt budget but consumed

budget from WBS.

But it seems impractical to maintain such a derivation rule for every

PM Order created daily and that too dynamically...

We do not know of a derivation rule in FMDERIVE which would exclude FM

budget check for those PM orders which have WBS element mentioned in

the WO.

can anyone of your please assist

Thank you

Sanjay

Hi,

It's feasible for you, knowing the number of PM order, to read their data and fetch WBS into a temporary field in FMDERIVE. Then, you build a rule that will check if this field is empty or not. In case it's not, you will derive dummy FM address.
