Variable View of the Reference Object in Notification, Order, Maintenance Plan

Description

From Release 4.0A, you can set the view that is valid for the reference object for notifications, orders and maintenance plans in Plant Maintenance. The following variants are provided in the Standard System:

• Functional location + Equipment + Assembly (former standard setting)

• Functional location + Equipment + Assembly, where for functional locations with exactly one piece of installed equipment, the piece of equipment is automatically displayed

• Functional location

• Equipment (either with or without assembly)

• Material number + Serial number (either with or without equipment number)

• Without reference object

For variants in which the material serial number exist as a view, a new variant of the object list is chosen for orders and maintenance items. In this variant the object list also includes the material and serial number. The usual variants retain the former object list with functional location, equipment and so on. However, by converting the object list to table control, the list can be modified to meet the requirements of individual users.

This means that you are able to select the view of the reference object that is the most appropriate. for the respective business process. The proposed view can be changed when creating a transaction if required.
