Dear All,
What is the use of construction type field in equipment master and how can i use in plant maintenance processes or transactions
If possible give some examples.Also any one have some document or link related to construction type, kindly provide.
Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep
Dear,
It is used for [Material BOM|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/c4/e51389a2f211d19dae0000e8323350/frameset.htm]
Hope it helps !
Regards

Construction Type is used for identifying the equipment's having similar construction of materials.The construction type field in equipment master is used to group all equipment's of same construction type grouped as one. There are two ways of assigning Equipment BOM:
A practical example will be like i have a control valve of 50 nos each having their own equipment nos. So instead of creating 50 equipment BOM for the valves we will be creating one material BOM for the valves which have all the parts/components of valves assigned in it. This material BOM will then then be maintained in the construction type of all the 50 equipment's.
The same will then be reflected in the product structure as well which can be viewed using CC04 transaction.

Construction Type is used for identify the equipments having similar construction of materials.
For examples: Identical Mechanical seal used in different pumps.
A BOM can be linked to a technical object in two ways:
By direct assignment: directly assigned BOM
If you create a bill of material directly for a technical object, it is assigned directly. If all the technical objects are identical in terms of structure, the BOM items are valid for all the allocated technical objects.
By indirect assignment: indirectly assigned BOM
For technical objects that have a material BOM - if you enter a material number in the Construction type field of a master record, the material BOM is indirectly assigned to the object. This is a good idea when a company has several identical technical objects grouped under one material number.
