 Displaying an Installed Base from the Notification

Use

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 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.

End of the example.

Your system administration has activated the screen area with installed base data for a certain tab in the Customizing function for notifications.
