Any help will be appreciated with points.

They are two entirely different things..

Maintenance workcenters are usually teams with a common skills or capability to perform a certain kind of maintenance work. Production workcenters are usually a set of machines which produce a product.

Main work center: Group of people working for maintenance activities which is used for PM order scheduling & planning

Workcenter: May be your set of m/c. This is the integration of PP & PM.

If u assign the workcenter defined in PP to the equipment, it will link PM & PP,

This will help you in planning production orders..

Hope this will help you to understand...

Are Maintenance Work Centers and Workcenters created in under different transactions? Are Maintenance Work Centers created in CR01 as well?
