MPD – Work Status Reporting

[Former Member]

The definition provided in SAP Help portal for the MPD Work Status reporting is “This reporting mode gives you an overview of the MPD process and completion of maintenance requirements, for example, status of notifications and orders”. My understanding of this statement is that we have maintained “Compliance Date” under “MPD MP Header & Item” and the activities planned in the DIR are to be completed by this date to achieve the required compliance. However, when I execute the Work Status report, the Maintenance Plan status is always “Maintenance Plan has already been started”. This is irrespective of whether the notification (call object) is outstanding, all the call objects are completed within the compliance date or the call objects are not completed and compliance date is in the past. Shouldn’t the report help in tracking the completion of the activities within the planned timeframe. This is essential in SB/AD execution/implementation. So I was wondering if I have missed something here.

Hi,

I have not worked on MPD.

Reading out the SAP help tells you that the report gives the maintenance plans, notification and order information.

Did you manually checked the maintenance plans, whether the notification or order is called via IP03 transaction.

If you still facing the issue, check for notes or raise a OSS to SAP

Hi,

There is no issue with plan scheduling and call object generation. My only doubt is about the utility of the Work Status Report. In the DIR, the Compliance date is captured and it is the date by which the maintenance requirements described in the DIR are to be completed. So, ideally this report should track the work status, i.e., work completion based on the compliance date and show the plan status accordingly.

Hi,

The purpose of the report should give the status of Notification and Order based on the to and from date you mention.

I dont have the system, else i would have checked, wait for other consultants to repond
