1. What is SAP PM ?
The R/3 Plant Maintenance (PM) application component provides you with a comprehensive software solution for all
maintenance activities that are performed within a company. The uniform, graphical user interface is particularly user-
friendly and quickly meets with acceptance, thanks to the numerous possibilities that are available for tailoring it to meet
individual requirements.
2. The data and functions of all maintenance procedures performed within a company can be fully
interconnected.
The openness of the R/3 System enables you to use external systems that are integrated with the PM component, such as
geographical information systems (GIS), computer-aided design (CAD) systems and supervisory control and data acquisition
(SCADA) systems.
3. Is the functional location structure indicator unique across the system ?
Across clients but not systems.
4. What must you do if you have assets (functional locations) with the same number in several plants ?
You must use the plant reference number as the first level of the functional location structure.
5. What is the menu path for displaying the structure of a functional location in list form and as a graphic ?
plant maintenance>technical objects>functional location>structural display
11. What functions are determined by the category of the functional location ?
Change documents, status profile, asset, object information key, partner determination, measuring point category.

maintenance organization.SAP PM is closely integrated with other modules (for example, Materials Management, Production,
Sales and Distribution, Personnel Management, and Controlling) the data is always kept current and processes that are
necessary for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service are automatically triggered in other areas (for example, a purchase
requisition for non-stock material in the Materials Management/Purchasing area).
17. How overheades are calculated and from where the formula is picked ?
My client has default setting of 10% overhead and now they want to change.
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service--> Maintenance and Service Processing--> Maintenance and Service Orders-->
Functions and Settings for Order Types-->Costing Data for Maintenance--> and Service Orders--> Maintain Costing Sheet
Select the costing sheet that you are using and push costing sheet rows, next see the column overhead rate, select the row
and push overhead rate.
consumer number, check your maintenance item or plan details.
18. Do we need to run this transaction code IP30 for all the maintenance plans which are scheduled on regularly daily basis
or weekly basis so that if any scheduled object exists then it will get converted into the service order ?
It needs to be run as per business requirements.
There are two ways to do so.
One way manually as & when you run this transaction for required PM Plans say weekly or monthly with your scheduling
parameter you will get the maintenance objects.
Another way you create one variant. Now with this variant create one background job as per your need give the time period
every day, every week, month & system will generate maintenance calls for you at that specified duration.
19. Is it necessary to run the IP Transaction code for each maintenance plan that we have scheduled ?
Yes, if it is needed that the plan should generate orders it needs to be scheduled either in background job or needs manually
executed.
20. Can a service order be generated automatically without running IP30 if we have scheduled a maintenance plan ?
Yes, you can get a service order (PM Order) against this plant maintenance order with control key as PM03 you can get PR
from PR. You can get service order again here MM integration if the auto PO concept used then auto PO (service order) gets
generated.
But if you want to avoid lengthy process you can use IP10.
During each IP10 run if call falls within the date you will get maintenance call object that is PM order - ------> PR -----> PO
PM Order -----> FO (Frame Work Order) PM Order -----> Service Contract ------> Value / Qty (These tab you will get in PM
order operation header general data)
21. Where to get the table which is having user status with Notification number. (not the system status).
1. From table QMEL get OBJNR(object number) using the QMNUM( notification number).
2. Using this OBJNR get STSMA( Status Profile) from table JSTO.
3. Using the OBJNR get STAT(object status) from table JEST. You may/ may not get multiple object status for an Object
number.
4. System status number will start from E. User status number will start from I.
5. To get the text of the status, use the status number (STAT) and STSMA to get the status text from table TJ30T.
22. How do you distinguish, in a simple manner, between Equipment that is being charged and not charged for service ?
Define different equipment categories. Standard equipment reference categories for 'Internal Machines' and 'Customer
Equipment' exist.
23. How do you distinguish between company and customer owned equipment? Equipment on land owned by the company
and land leased by the company ?
Same as Q1. Explore combinations of equip. category and equipment types to achieve the design objective.

equipment reference category is 'Customer Equipment'.
How can we block service to a customer ? It has to be done through the FL, since most of the Equipment belongs to the
company and is loaned to the customer.
Deactivate the FL. This allows no further creation of transaction data (service orders, etc.). However, the existing orders can
be processed and closed. The deactivation can be reversed at a later date.
26. When you maintain an assembly in a piece of equipment, is it possible to get maintenance history of the assembly? Do
you have to create it as a piece of equipment ?
As maintenance orders are created for FL/equipment only, maintenance history can only be tracked at that level, not at
assembly level. Assemblies are mere structuring devices to have spare parts linked to equipment in a structured manner.
However, in PM orders, you can mention the assembly along with the FL/Eq. Depending on your reporting needs; an ABAPer
could use the 'PM Assembly' field in PM orders.
27. What is the use of the field "Standing order"? What kind of order is it ?
Standing orders are used to carry out on-going maintenance jobs and settle them at month end rather than creating a fresh
PM order every time. Using order hierarchies, you could attach sub-orders to the standing order and settle them to the
standing order to provide you with more precise recording of maint costs at sub-order level as well as a budget monitoring at
the standing order level.
28. Explain the integration points between PM and MM/FICO during the PM configuration.
Below are some integration aspects:
Integration with MM:
1. Material master record for Batch Managed material as Equipment
2. Reservations and Goods Issue for Maintenance Order
3. Material valuation class/types for refurbishment materials as equipment
4. Triggering PR from Maintenance Order
30. How to configure the integration of PP and PM, where it is being done in SPRO, what are the pre-requisite and what are
the steps.
In SPRO - Under Maintenance and Service order ---> general data ----> "Create System Conditions or Operating Conditions"
--> check the box for PM Reservation.
In the equipment Master,
Under the Location tab, mention the PP work center and
In the Order Header data,
Give the system condition as "0" ie M/C not in operation.
