Hello Gaurav,

First of all, you must be knowing that you've queried for a Measurement document of a Counter. Now the details.

1. Difference

Assume  the case of Lubricant charge to a machine, This field indicates,how much you have charged today for which you are creating the Measurement document. This field when you give a reading and press Enter, automatically updates the Counter reading  and the TotalCtrReading fields with cumulative reading so far.

In this case a field IDIFF in IMRG table will be updated with 'X' , indicating that the reading was entered in Difference field. This information will be helpful while developing programs.

2. Counter reading

Assume you are recording a Measuring document for an Energy meter reading of an installation. Then you read the meter reading today and enter in this field. This automatically updates the Difference and the TotalCtrReading fields. (Obviously the value that will be filled in Difference field is the Difference between the Last counter reading and the present one.)

3. TotalCtrReading

It is a cumulative reading of a counter (Non-editable)

So to understand is, SAP has given two fields 1 and 2 for entering the reading in case of Counters. In Case 1, it will be convenient for you to enter the present reading in Difference fields and in case 2 in the Counter reading field. In either case the other 2 fields are updated automatically.

Valuation code

Sometimes we need to enter values like OK / Not OK  or YES / NO etc in addition to the Reading (or only valuation codes sometimes),. For this we create Codegroup and Codes through catalog '1' and mention this code group while creating measuring point. Then when you create measuring document these codes are present there for your selection.

Hope your doubts are cleared.

Hi,

For Measuring document, please read this thread Measurement Documents - Measuring Points and Counters (CS-IB-MC / PM-EQM-SF-MPC) - SAP Library

Counter reading-this represent the transaction data for counters in terms of values.The value reached by a counter at a particular point in time this captured here.

Difference- we captured continuous values from counters and keep creating measuring documents based on this,this field show Difference between the previous reading and the new counter reading.

TotalCtrReading-The total counter reading is the sum of all the counter readings that have been entered in system.

Valuation code-this contained in the code group and used for a qualitative valuation.
