Measuring points in the SAP System

Описание: Measuring points in the SAP System describe the physical and/or logical locations at which a condition is described. For example, the coolant temperature in a nuclear power station after the coolant has left the pressure vessel, or the number of rotations at a rotor shaft of a wind-driven power plant.

In Plant Maintenance, measuring points are located on technical objects, in other words, on pieces of equipment or functional locations. For example, in a storeroom for fruit, a certain room temperature has to be created and maintained. The temperature is kept constant by a regulator, and is also checked regularly by a measuring device. The storeroom is represented in the system as functional location. Every measurement of a measuring point results in a unique measuring document that contains the condition results as well as the person who created the document, dates, and times, etc. Measuring counters are used for preventive maintenance. They are part of the maintenance plans. When the counter value is exceeded, a maintenance order or notification can be created automatically. Inspection rounds can be executed to read and register all the values of the measuring points.

4 new objects are introduced, including the required references. Based on the SAP table IMPTT an object is created with references to Equipment, Functional Location and the Last entered Measurement Document as well as sublists to Measurement Documents and Maintenance Plan Cycles/Counters
