Using List Editing for Equipment 

Use

In addition to the individual entry of equipment master records, you can also use the list editing function. This allows you to enter quickly a large number of pieces of equipment in the system with their essential data, using existing equipment or material master records as a reference where necessary.

Procedure

  1. From the main menu, choose Logistics ® Plant maintenance ® Technical objects ® FunctLocation ® List editing ® Change.

    2. You go to the screen Equipment List Entry.

  2. In the upper section of the screen, enter the equipment category and the maintenance plant. These entries will be valid for all the pieces of equipment that you create using this transaction.
  3. If you want to use a reference when creating the pieces of equipment, enter either a piece of equipment or a material in the section Reference.

    4. If you are using a reference, you can specify the number of pieces of equipment that you want to create. The description of the reference equipment or material is copied into as many of the list entry fields as you specify here.

  4. In the list entry part of the screen, enter the following data for each equipment master record that you want to create:

    5. – The equipment number (only if you are using external number assignment)

    – The equipment description (if this has not been copied from the reference)

  5. Save the new equipment master records.

Depending on the fields in the equipment master record that have been defined as obligatory fields, processing continues in one of the following ways:

A The system saves the master records and issues a message informing you of the numbers of the pieces of equipment created

B The system branches into the individual master records in which you must enter particular data that has been defined as obligatory data.

After you have made all the required entries, the system saves the master records and issues a message informing you of the numbers of the pieces of equipment created.
