SAP PP AND PM INTEGRATION FOR CAPACITY REQUIREMENT

PLANNING
This document explains integration between PP module and Plant Maintenance (PM)
module....
Overview: Integration between PP and PM modules happens during following scenarios...
A) During Capacity Planning for work centers
B) For tracking the usage value of PRT's
Process flow of integration during Capacity Planning for work centers:
When the production work center is overloaded with capacity, if we try to do capacity leveling
and want to shift the capacity to other dates, where already some preventive maintenance
activity is planned for the same work center ( equipment) during that period, then system will
not allow to reschedule the production order to those days. PP Work center is Equipment in
PM. In the concerned equipment's master data you can mention the PP work centers name.
This links the PP work center and PM equipment.
Process flow...

Create work center :

in the capacities header tab maintain the data as per the requirement....
Now save the work center....

Create Routing : Create the routing for material and assign the work center for operation as
shown in the below screen shots...
Now save the Routing..
Create BOM : Create the BOM for the material through CS01 for creation of Production
orders...

this completes the master data from Production planning module side....
Create Equipment : Create equipment in Plant maintenance module through IE01 and
assign the work center ( created in PP module ) in the location tab as shown below. and
assign the planning plant as same the work center plant...
Save the equipment.....
Now create Preventive Maintenance order for the above equipment through IW31...
Now give the order start date as 26.05.2014 and end date as 30.05.2014 as shown below...
maintain system condition as not in operation as shown below....
Finally save the Preventive Maintenance order...

Now create production order for material 2570 through CO01...

Now give the start date as 22.05.2014 and end date as 27.05.2014 as shown below..and
release the order and save the production order...
Now create one more production order for the same material with same start and end dates
as shown below... this is for creating the capacity overload for the period....
then save the order...
Now check the capacity situation of the work center in the CM50 transaction...
above you can observe that there is a capacity overload on dates 23.05.2014, 26.05.2014
and 27.05.2014....now as there is a overload we will try reschedule the one of the production
order to other dates on the capacity planning table with function capacity leveling...
in the next selection screen give work center, plant, capacity category and Capacity planner
grp
Now execute

Now take the second production order ( 60004673) and try dispatch it on the dates
28.05.2014 to 30.05.2014 where already preventive maintenance order is present which is
shown in black color..
Now when you try to dispatch the second production order system will not allow you to do on
the dates of preventive maintenance dates and it will rescheduled (dispatched) to subsequent
dates as shown below...
Now save the planning table and observe the change in dates in second production order..
Process flow of integration for tracking the usage value of PRT's :
Tracking of usage of a tool in production, every time a tool is used there should be a count of
that usage...This requires PP-PM integration. A production resource tool as equipment is
created with the measuring points. The PRT will then be assigned to the operation that
requires usage. During confirmation of the production order, the system will automatically
record the usage as measuring documents. In this way, the count of the tool usage is
monitored...
