Dear Sir,
Kindly explain the difference between "Maintenance Assembly" and "PM Assembly".
Is it possible to show "Maintenance Assembly" in the Functional location or Equipment Strucure like "PM Assembly".
Thanks and Regards.
Hi
Both are same
Assemblies are not plant-specific. They are considered design/phantom/grouping type of materials. They aren't physical materials but rather a grouping of physical materials.
The idea is that you create an IBAU for each of these "groupings" of parts then you create a material BOM (or rather a maintenance assembly BOM) in CS01 like you would normally do for a typical material BOM except that the parent or source material is your new IBAU.
Next you would create an equipment BOM where you would add your IBAU as a component of that equipment BOM. Since maintenance assemblies (aka IBAUs) are not plant-specific you must add the IBAU to the equipment BOM as a PM Structure Element (BOM Item Category of "I").
If you want to go the route of using construction type then the idea here is that you would create a material BOM similar to the equipment BOM. The difference is that instead of an equipment BOM pointing to material BOMs you would have a material BOM pointing to other material BOMs where the master material of this whole BOM strcuture is actually a material representation of the equipment.
For example, let's say you have 5 pumps with identical BOM structures. You would create a material called PUMP then proceed to create the BOM structure for a typical pump. After this you would create your 5 pumps as equipment and assign them a construction type of the PUMP material. In this way your equipment will now inherit the PUMP BOM structure.
The benefit/drawback to using construction type is that your BOM structure remains the same for all equipments using that PUMP construction type.

Hi
there is no difference between Maintenance Assembly & PM assembly
Yes if you attach this in construction type then it will come as assembly You can see as assembly
