Unable to schedule a maintenance order

[former_member351306]

HI

I created a maiantenance order via IP10. In IW32, when I click on the schdeuling icon, I get the message 'scheduling carried out..', but when I look at the operation > dates, the early & latest start dates are in the past are in the past (09/12/2011 & 14:55:00) and early start and finsh dates are 09/14/2011 (17:00:00). why is it not scheduling? Where are my basic & scheduled dates along with other information like sched type, rel date, etc?

In customising I set the scheduling type as backward, the contorl key is PM05 and has checked for everything and in the resource master data - in the capacity tab and other formula is SAP008 and schedling tab, other formula is SAP004 and capacity category is set for fintie sched, LTP, can be used in serveral operations.

In the task list, I maitained duration as 11 hrs and claculation key as 'manually', the work field is greyed out (why?), number = 1 etc.

I'm in ECC 6.0.

What else should I check? Pl. let me know.

Thanks

What is the start date you have given for Maintenance plan in scheduling? What are the operations with duration? What is the packages or cycles maintained in Maintenance plan? I guess, because of backward scheduling, start date is in past. Just try with Forward scheduling.

Hi

I'm using a package of cylce length 24 H and the start date I specified in IP10 is current date (that probably explains the start date in the past - where do I change the scheduling type from 'backward' to 'forward'?). In the operation (only one operation), I've maintained a duration of 11 hours. The 'work' fiedl is greyed out - is that an issue? If yes, what should I do to open it up? The key for caluclation is set to 'maintain manually'. If I change it to 'calaculate duration' in the order, the error msg is 'Enter units when calculating work or duration' and if change it to calculate work, then the error is 'Calculation of labor made in service package --> calculation key replaced'.

Is there anything else I should check?

thanks

Hi,

1. Pls change your schdueling type to Forward , In PM we use Forward scheduling type, backward is mostly used for PP.

2. You can change schdueling type in OPU7 for combination of Plant and Order type put schdueling type to Forward.

3. You can open the Field Work in tasklist via OP5D PM/SM Tasklists - operation screens ..

Do the above and check up if u still have issues.
