Unsequence Notification and Work Order

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a problem. When my user creates Notification with Work Order the sequence number is not running as it should be.

For an example,

Is this the system problem or ???

Please help..

Thanks

Hi Sundralingam,

From your screen shot it is not clear that given date is order creation date or planned date of order.

I think these order have been generated through maintenance plan.

Please check which date you are reffering.

For Example - if you run two maintenance plan plan1 and plan 2 -

for plan 1 order generated with start date of Nov -   1001

For plan 2 order generated with start date of Oct -  1002

Hi Sundralingam,

As per screen shot displayed by you, here it self you can check that Notifications & Orders are generated in sequential manner.

Refer below numbers generated from your screen:

Notification     Order           Date

10147505       4154954       02.11.2013

10147506       4154955       02.11.2013

10147507       4154956       16.11.2013

10147508       4154957       22.11.2013

You will find the miss match in notification & order sequence because,  some times we create only order without notification or only notification without order.

Also remember, if number range is same or different notifications types or order types, in this case also we loose the sequence since other notifications/orders have been generated in between.

Thanks Sunder for the explanation but when you see in October the Work order is 4155695 which is incorrect because the work order for October should start with 4154951 instead of 4155695.

Hi Sundarlingam ,

What I understood from discussion is , you want to say that the order no generated in OCT is greater than the no. generated in NOV . If this is your problem then please check no. range defined in you system for orders is internal or external . If its a external one then you can enter any unique no. from the range at any point of time.

Hi Sundralingam,

Is order type for both orders viz. 4155695 & 4154951 same?

If these are different, then check for their number range assigned.

Dear SAP,

We are only using internal that is system auto generates.

Hi Sundralingam,

What do you mean by sequence number ?

I did not find anything regarding sequence no. in layout selection of order (IW38) or in notification (IW28)

Sitanshu,

work order create in November start with 4154951... whic is in sequence but in October the number is 4155695 which is incorrect because the work order for October should start with 4154951 instead of 4155695.

I am not understanding your problem clearly. How is number getting generated currently & how do you want to have that??

Hi Maheswaran,

When you look at the screen you can see that notification no is in sequences. But the work order is in diffrent date.

For and example work order create in November start with 4154951... whic is in sequence but in October the number is 4155695 which is incorrect because the work order for October should start with 4154951 instead of 4155695.

Hope this explain my justification

Are these orders created by system automatically?? or users are creating the orders manually?? Also, which date you are referring here in your screen shot??

[ajitkumar]

in the configuration Define notification types, check whether 'early number assignement' is check marked. If so number is assigned at the creation of notification and not while it is saved. This means if the transaction is originated but not saved, you will lose that number.

this could be a reason

Hi Ajit,

Is this the one ???

[former_member196951]

by do the TICK, notification no. will generate at the time of creation (no need to wait till SAVE).
