Maintenance Plan/Item Mass Change (MCH01)

All,

I've just been informed about a transaction for mass-change of plans/items (transaction MCH01). But when I run the transaction it doesn't work in my ECC6-EHP5 (IS-OIL) system stating that the transaction cannot be executed.

So I tried running the underlying program (RMCHMPLA) and to my surprise it works...

Has anyone else tried this transaction/program?

Greeting Pete,

See this link:

I think you need to have the IS-A&D business component activated to use this functionality. Do you have this in your system?

Yes - it appears to be an IS-A&D option and part of switch AD_MPD (transaction SFW1).

I did mange to get it to work by "unofficially" adding a new record to table BALSUB (MASS/MPLA/Maintenance Plan). And it seems to work.

However, I cannot find a way to do this "officially".

I think it's also available with the Mill&Discrete Inductries "DIMP" package

I wonder if the program can be attached to a z-tcode instead...? I do not know what is the "official" way to do it, although I will try to have a look in a system with DIMP

Hi Pete,

Interesting thread; MCSH01 is not activated in my system either (but I can run the program via SE38).

From what I've read it's part of IS-A&D but I didn't find anything specific about that transaction (SAP note, forums, etc.). So unless there is something new about it, it must be a problem of package activation.

Are you sure there isn't anything missing in SFW5? See this thread: http://scn.sap.com/thread/1264837

Can you check this with a BASIS consultant?

... I'm curious about the solution.
