Linking PM Notification to different SAP Objects from different SAP Components

[kashimawo1]

Hi All,

I have a requirement to link notification to three follow on actions namely:

1.     Work order creation (IW31?)

2.     PPM to create project

3.     Change request to review document (CC31?)

These activities are actions required from Root Cause Analysis. RCA is being done by an external system. An interface is to be used to create a notification in SAP PM. The notification is to be configured with an Action Box containing these three activities as follow on actions.

Is this possible to achieve? And if so, what FM can be used for each of the three SAP Objects?

Will there be a link between the three created objects and the Notification?

Will it be possible to update the Notification with the statuses of any one of these three objects automatically?

Your response would be very much appreciated.

Not sure this helps, but we managed to link a notification to multiple objects using a development in Services for Object.

You were then able to see these links as follows:

I used function module BINARY_RELATION_CREATE_COMMIT with the following:

• OBJ_ROLEA-OBJKEY = full notification number
• OBJ_ROLEA-OBJTYPE = BUS2038 (for notification)
• OBJ_ROLEB-OBJKEY = full plan number
• OBJ_ROLEB-OBJTYPE = BUS1020 (for maintenance plan)
• RELATIONTYPE = ASGN

Thanks pete,

This link using development for service objects, doe it update the notification status.

For example, Change Request transaction CC31/32). When the change request status is complete, can this change the notification status to NOCO? If yes, that may be the solution that I am looking for.

Is this service object linkage a manual or automatic?

Your usual response would be appreciated.

No there is no status update, this is purely linking two objects in SAP. And the link above was created manually via function module BINARY_RELATION_CREATE_COMMIT.

However, you could develop a solution to create the SfO link(s) above, then update the notification status as required (say using user-exit QQMA0014 - at SAVE event).

Another option is to use user-exit QQMA0001 to create your own customer-specific notification screen which includes the object fields you want to link to.

Ok, will look at these various options especially the last option  (user-exit QQMA0001 to create your own customer-specific notification screen which includes the object fields you want to link to) and will let you know.

Thanks

Hii Kashimawo

1. Yes, you can directly create a maintenance order in IW34 with respect to notification or you can create a maintenance order from IW31 and link with notification by following path in order GOTO>Notification.

By creating notification in IW21 / IW51, you can able to create Work order in IW31. It doesn't require any Action box items.
