Estimate Work Request Job Content – Stocked Materials

This document explains how you connect spare parts that are carried in your stock to a work request. The document explains both how you connect parts and how you select parts from the equipment structure.

Use this instruction when you plan material requirements for a work request.

Outcome

Required spare parts are connected to the work request and reserved for use when the job is started.

Material requirements are created in 'Material Plan. Open' (MMS080). This record is created with order category 610, indicating a maintenance issue that is planned. The status will be the same as the work request, providing the work order status is set to 20. If it is set to 10, no record will be displayed in (MMS080).

When the work request is released, the material is created as a reservation in 'Req./Distr Order. Open' (MMS100), providing the work order status is set to 20.

Information about the work request materials is stored in:

  • Work request operations (MMPOPE)
  • Work request materials (MMPMAT).

Before you start

  • The starting conditions listed in Estimating Job Content must be met.
  • A stocked item must exist with a warehouse in 'Item. Open' (MMS001).
  • The sequence used to search for the item number when adding the spare part must be defined in the 'Check sequence – item ID' field on the P panel. If you want to use the customer's item number, that number must be defined in 'Customer. Connect Item' (OIS005). If you want to use the alias number, that number must be defined in 'Item. Connect Alias Number' (MMS025). If you use alias numbers, you must also define the sequence in which to search for the alias number in the 'Search sequence' field on the P panel.
  • The order type in (CRS200) must be correctly defined with the 'Type of order number check' parameter set to 6. The order type should be defaulted against the maintenance order type in (MOS120).
