ISU Serial number = SAP Equipment number

[Former Member]

Hi experts

We are thinking to synchronize the ISU device/serial number to SAP's equipment number when creating using IQ01. This is done by setting the SerLev indicator to "1" on Material Master plant data/stor 2 tab.

We are doing this to reduce confusion of the 2 fields, e.g. SAP maintenance plan uses equipment number and we want to use it for scheduled meter testing.

My question is has anyone done it this way before if so what are the implications if any.

Thanks.

Hi,

This is ideal way. However, please note while building logic for meter read interface etc.

In this case,

EQUNR = SERNR

MATNR = Material in MM = Caategory

Also, you have to build a logic based on LOGIKZW which is unique for register.

Please let me know if something doesn't answer your question..

Thanks

Hi Vinod,

Could you please explain what you mean by "you have to build a logic based on LOGIKZW which is unique for register".

Sergey the customers does have not and will not have duplicate numbers across categories.

Thanks.

Hi John,

Sorry for the delay..I just caught with the thread..

What I meant was the logic for deisgning the Interface to bring in Device related data..Pl ignore if you are not asking in the context of designing.

Hi,

There is a risk that some devices(meters) may have equal serial number if you have several device categories for customers meters.
