You can use the maintenance notification or service notification to display the installed base to which the equipment you are using as a reference object belongs. If you create a notification, you can also search for a piece of equipment about which you only know that it belongs to a particular installed base and use this as the reference object for the notification.
Example
You create a problem notification for a pump engine, although you do not know the equipment number of the engine, only that of the pump. Enter the pump as the reference object and display the installed base. In this way, you find the equipment number of the engine using the structure display and can copy this as the reference object in the malfunction report.
Your system administration has activated the screen area with installed base data for a certain tab in the Customizing function for notifications.
Depending on the application component in which you are working, choose one of the following menu paths:
Choose
.Enter a piece of equipment as the reference object. If the equipment is assigned to an installed base as a component, you will see the installed base on the corresponding tab.
Choose

if you want to view the installed base in the overview.
Choose
Copy
if you want to copy another piece of equipment from the installed base as a new reference object.
