Use

This function allows you to change device data and register data. This function does not allow you to change device categories, however.

Prerequisites

Note the following:

  • The contract for the installation of the device must not have been billed before the modification date.

  • When you enter the modification, the device must not have been modified or changed in the system after the actual modification date. The entry in the system must correspond to the actual history of the processes.

Example Example

You enter the modification on 10/12. The installation took place on 10/08. A device modification or a change to the device data may not have been entered after 10/08.

End of the example.

Special prerequisites for modification

Activity

Prerequisites

Change device data of current time slice

The device has undergone technical removal.

Change technical data of registers in any time slice

The device has undergone technical installation.

Activities

If you have changed technical register data, you must enter meter reading results for the corresponding registers.

To allocate another device category (material) to the device, go to one of the following application components, depending on where the device is managed:

  • Inventory Management (MM-IM)

  • Plant Maintenance (PM)

If you modify an installed device in the current time slice, you can change the device’s register allocation during the modification.

  • If parameters such as the measured pressure or the billing factor were changed for a device in a device allocation, the device allocations are adjusted as necessary.

A message is displayed if the automatic adjustment is not possible. You can go directly to the device allocation and check and adjust the attribute manually. To do this, choose   Goto   Device allocations   .

  • If data of registers in register relationships has changed, you can branch to register relationship maintenance and adjust the data.
