Basic start & Basic finish date in PM Order

[Former Member]

Hi,

This is related to Preventive Maint. Order Basic start date & Basic finish date.

I have configured 2 priorities.

Priority 1 with Relative Start 1 & Rel. end 10 Days

Priority 2 with Relative Start 1 & Rel. end 30 Days

PM Plan is created with strategy

Weekly & Bi-weekly

Priority 1 is set in PM plan

Scheduling Period 60 days

Call horizon 100%

Scheduling has beed done with start date as 02.09.2014.

Plan dates are as below.

09.09.2014

16.09.2014

23.09.2014

etc

PM Orders have been called through IP30.

When I checked the Maint. Orders, I found that the Basic start date & Basic finish dates are same as below in all the Orders generated through IP30.

Basic start date: 09.09.2014 & Basic Finish date: 09.09.2014.

Actually it should calculate Basic Finish date as Basic start date + 10 days (as per my priority).

Can I know reason why system does not consider the priority duration in this.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

CSR

Greetings Raman,

To shift the basic dates for the Orders generated by a Strategy Maintenance Plan, you may use the Float (Initial and Subsequent) values defined on the Strategy level in the Maintenance Strategy itself (IP11)

Normally, the Date Shifts maintained in the Priority do not come into play when you are scheduling Maintenance Plans.

So the rundown is that you can shift the basic dates in Preventive Work Orders, differentiating on the Maintenance Package, rather than Priority.

If you require the Basic Dates to be adjusted for generated Orders, you can develop a solution using EXIT_SAPLCOIH_012

See some more useful info:

Basic end date does not influence priority from maintenance plan

Hi CSR,

have you tried to check the scheduling parameters for the order type?

Maybe the setting for the "Adjust scheduling" prevents a change in basic dates.
