Hi,

Thanks for the good replies

So what i understood is that, when the annual shutdown is taken and if the shutdown is lasting for the 1 month, then the planned and the unplanned (Looks not logical as during shutdown there will not be any corrective) orders during that one month period will be clubbed together and executed as a one order. This will also comply the maintenance requirements of the various technical objects as per the various quality standards.This revision is plant specific.

But i only have one question here, if the annual shutdown is taken every year, then is it really required to carry the preventive maintenance of the equipments? Is the work carried out in annual shutdown is different than the work carried out in preventive maintenance?

I know these are more business process questions, but request you to help me to find the appropriate answers.

Thanks

Dear,

During annual shutdown all the jobs which are planned thought the year which were not possible to address due to the capacity or equipment running condition can be carried out.

Shutdown jobs mostly covers Overhaling some companies provides seprate budget / capex for such activities.

Shutdown alos covers some times major modification / upgradation of the machinerires system.This helps in increasing the avalibility , productivity of the organsiation.

As understood by u for revision is correct.

Two things I would like to add further.

1.There is Revision nos for each notification order if u assign as per your requirement for precise planning & saggrigation.

2.You can schdeule the jobs with revion all the operations assigned to the orders according to the work centre capacity gets scheduled & at higher level u can monitor the activities.

When I was involvld with maintenance planning, the shutdown maintenance was a big event.

We assigned the revision number to any notifications/orders that could only be carried out when the plant was shut down.

This would include unplanned corrective orders as well as planned maintenance.

In this way the dates were all kept in synch, and if we had an unplanned shutdown, we could reschedule easily using the revision and carry out as much of the work as possible during the time the plant was shut down. This would then allow the option of making the planned shutdown a shorter event.

Hi Gurus,

Need an Advice

I have assigned revision numbers to orders, the revision number has a start date and end date which is influencing the order start and end dates, is there a way do deactivate this influence.

Meaning can i supress the revision dates so that it dosen't influence the order dates in the PM Order.

Thanks.

I would suggest you can use transaction OIOB to either:

1. Mark the revision as Completed

or

2. Remove the dates from the revision.

Hi Raghu

Revisions are used when u want to collect/combine many tasks under one number.This is mainly applicable when u r doing large scale maintenance activities as explained by Vinay

In IW38 u can see that the orders can be selected using the Revision Number allocated

With revisions system allows checks

You can enter the following data in a revision:

1.Start and end of a revision (these dates are copied & verfied when order is created )

2.Functional location (dates are copied /verified to the order when it is used)

3.WBS element or network(same logic)

Hello Raghu,

The revisions are used in Maintenance for managing annual shutdoun maintenance. You configure the revesion number for the financial year in system & assign this revesion number to your preventive/corrective maintenance orders..Orders are grouped with reference to revession number & executed during plant shutdowns...

Thanks
