Maintenance plans are not released automatically

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have created some maintenance plans. Scheduled those using IP10. Created variant using IP30 and scheduled RISTRA20 in background using SM36. My job finished successfully. But no orders created.

When I go to IP10 now, it shows status as "save to call". When I save it asks "check whether permit is required" with two options "Release" and "Cancel".

Am I missing some steps?

No permits are included for orders or FLs.

TIA

Hi Vivek,

Not here as per SCN rules, but you can update in your profile and this can be set to view for others.

Experts,

I tried rescheduling the plan. I tried making a new plan (using IP10).

I tried signing off and signing in again.

Still the situation persists.

On a lighter note:

I am planning to log off my system once, go out of office then come again and start the process all over again. (And I'm sure situation would not change) 

Thanks

Dear,

Could you kindly check with the other order type in test system? not inspection round maintenance plan category.

Just one more trail!

Hey Pardha,

I tried with another order type. It gave an error in calculating costs.

But the permit check did not pop.

Hello,

After removing out the permit assigned to F i suggest you to reshedule the plan because afater resheduling only it will takes an effect.

Experts,

I found out one permit was in use over the topmost FL only.

We don't need it, so I removed that permit. Is that all? Or anything else has to be checked?

I tried scheduling one of the plans again BUT its again asking for "check whether permit is required".

Thanks

Vivek

P.S. Not using any equipments, checked all the FLs using IH06 and all the permits in selection criteria.

All permits are also checked using where used list in IPMD.

That should be all, I suspected that only.

Sir the problem persists.

[jogeswararao_kavala]

At this juncture, you may need to investigate by simulating the situation if necessary though a fresh plan to confirm whether or not the behavior is because of the permit you've just found.

Hi,

Is it first time you are scheduling maintenance plan?

Please schedule plan manually by Ip10, see if order is generated or not then use IP30.

Thanks

Dear,

Did you check your PERMITS using IPMD transaction whether they are made to assign automatically to your Preventive maintenance order type  of orders based on classification system and also check with your ABAPER for any user exits or enhancements activated in debug mode.

Check in CL02 for class and CT04  for characteristic values

Class : PM_PERMIT

Class type : 049

Hope this may help you little bit.

Hey Pardha,

checked all those and nothing.

PM_PERMIT is not defined for class type 049.

No user exits are in use as per ABAPer.

Still stuck!

One additional information though. I am using Measuring points as PRT in the operations of the orders to be created through plans. Kind of inspection round planning.

Thanks

Dear,

You said no orders created ,but on 01/02/2016 the status is 'scheduled complete"

How did you process that on 01/02/2016?

Could you show your maintenance plan and item screen shots?

I saved the plan to create the call object. And then that order was completed, completing the called plan for that particular call.

[jogeswararao_kavala]

Hello Vivek,

Perhaps the technical object (FLocn or Equipment) on which the Plan is created has been assigned a Permit. You can cross-check this by running IL02 or IE02 and then GoTo > Permits

Hello sir,

Checked all those. Permits are nowhere used.

Here are some screenshots

Hi Vivek,

This looks like a custom functionality. Can you ask your abaper to debug, i hope it will be solved easily by the tech guy.

I do not see any kind of my message relevant to your screenshot.

In standard, below is how the message will look like

That is definitely a custom error message, not standard. Please try to create an order manually using IW31; use the same data as in your maintenance item (order type, functional location, etc.) and see if you get the same error when you try and release the order. If so, you have a custom check at time of order release. If not, you have a custom check in IP10. Either way, a developer can help you find it by debugging the program.

Hi Paul,

I checked program SAPLCOIH and there is one include:

INCLUDE LCOIHIN4.                 "Aufruf Garantie Popup (Call Warranty pop)

These are standard programs. I am no ABAPer, however I believe that these are non editable (without 'key').

So looking for a way around.

Thanks

Hello,

As per your scenario I think you have assign permits to equipment's or Function locations. check it and share the error screenshot with the msg.

Sameer

[MTerence]

Hi Vivek,

Do check again, whether there are permits, if you are using equipment's then you need to check for Equipments, not in FL's

Hey Maria,

No permits are used, be it order, FL or equipment.

Thanks

[MTerence]

Hi Vivek,

Can you post the message number for "Check whether permit is required" or the screenshot

To confirm whether this is a standard message or custom message.
