How to restrict entry of work center belongs to different plant in notification and work order

[shiva43124]

Hi Gurus,

In my case Main.work center is not assigned to Functional location/Equipment, while creating a PM notification or Work order we have to select the work center from the F4 help. Today while creating work order accidentally I have selected a work center which belongs to another plant (Maintenance Plant which is not maintained in FL/EQ), unfortunately system allowed that work center. I want to restrict this!! How can I achieve this? Please suggest .Thanks

Regards,

Shiva

Shiva V,

Another option is to create a new search-help that determines the F4 work centres via your own customer-specific logic.

Talk to you ABAP team who should be able to help.

We have similar problems - if possible try to solve it via personal lists. They're easy to use and they prevent the users from making accidental mistakes

Hi,

I expect you will have to add a custom validation through a exit or Badi. I don't see any suitable ones immediately after entry of work center / plant. You could do a check when saving the order/notification through exists:

IWO10009 -- When saving the order

QQMA0014 -- For notification

You can issue a error and prevent saving if the work center / plants do not meet your validation.
