Creating Measurement Document After TECO

[keithdouglass]

We recently TECO'd a maintenance order for a performance based plan without creating a measurement document as part of the process. This counter is read monthly, and there have been several measurement documents created since the work order was completed. We have the correct counter value from the completion of the work order, which happens to be the same counter value as the subsequent monthly reading. I am wondering if there is a way to created the linked measurement document after the fact, or link the existing measurement document to the completed order so it can be accounted for on the offset. Thank you for any help regarding this.

Keith,

Why don't you do the following:

• Return the order back to REL status via menu path: Order->Functions->Complete->Cancel Technical Completion
• Enter your Measurement
• Re-TECo the order

Alternatively, just create a stand-alone measurement via IK11

Thank you Peter. It let me enter the measurement after releasing the work order as you commented above. It seems like we tried this yesterday without success, but it may have been an entry error. I see in the measurement document that I created there is a reference to the work order number, but it didn't have an effect on what the next planned counter reading is for the call item on hold. I'm wondering if it's pointless to go back and add these as it seems like it won't be applied to the call items already generated.

Not sure this helps either, but on a previous client, we disallowed TECO if there were outstanding measurements on the order.

Thanks! Is that a standard function in SAP, or something you had to customize?

Hi Keith - not sure if this helps, but does Paul's reply help here: https://answers.sap.com/questions/8710907/create-measurement-document-while-service-order-te.html

Thank you Tammy. It looks like this could have been accomplished using a user exit as a commenter in your link post implied, but we're not familiar with that and releasing the order to create it during the TECO process worked for us. I appreciate the help though!
