Maintenance Strategy (New)

Use As of SAP enhancement package 6 for SAP ERP 6.0 (EA-APPL 606), business function Enterprise Asset Management Part 5 (LOG_EAM_CI_5), maintenance plans can be rescheduled automatically if a maintenance strategy is changed in your productive system. This means, for example, that the changed maintenance cycle is transferred to the next scheduled dates of all active maintenance plans according to the cycle. Process 1. 2. You make a change to the maintenance strategy and save. The system asks if you want the maintenance plans to be rescheduled: 3. If not, this is the end of the process. In this case, you have to adjust the maintenance plans manually. If you choose "Yes", the system selects and lists all active maintenance plans that use the changed maintenance strategy.

You can now decide between the following options for each maintenance plan: The changed maintenance strategy is to apply after the last planned date. The changed maintenance strategy is not to apply until after the next planned date.

4.

The system reschedules the active maintenance plans according to your selection. It uses existing data to determine the last maintenance package used, and uses the original call date as a basis. The system takes both the shift factor and the confirmation date into account. It ignores any existing offsets (shifts as compared with the original plan). The system deletes any outstanding schedule records. It only reschedules the maintenance plans that fulfill the following criteria: Maintenance plans for which scheduling has run at least once Maintenance plans that have at least one call waiting

5.

Maintenance plans that are not selected are locked for all changes (for example, IP02) and scheduling (IP10 and IP30). You have to reschedule these later. In the SAP Easy Access menu, you choose Logistics -> Plant Maintenance -> Preventive Maintenance -> Maintenance Planning -> Maintenance Strategies -> Rescheduling of Maintenance Plans.

Restrictions Changes to scheduling parameters and cycle modification factors at maintenance item level are not covered by the new development. Effects on Existing Data Existing data is not affected.
