SAP Plant Maintenance EquipmentJune 20, 2013BUSINESS PROCESSThis document describes how to create Equipment for use in PM Functions. Equipment are master data to manage physical objects in PM and Customer Service. An Equipment master data object must be created here before it may be associated with a Functional Location Object.

9EQUIPMENT BILL OF MATERIALA Bill Of Material (BOM) is a complete, formally structured list of components making up a technical object or an assembly. The list contains the object number of the individual components together with their quantity and unit of measure. The components can be stock or non-stock spares assemblies, which in turn can be described using maintenance BOMs.

BOMs are primarily used for the following purposes: Structure descriptionBOM describes the structure of a technical object or material. Using Maintainance BOMs maintenance tasks can be planned.

Assignment of spare partsBOM is used in plant maintenance to assign spares for a technical object or material. This is shown in the figure below:

TriggerA piece of maintenance equipment requires a bill of material for maintenance purposes. Whenever any equipment created we can create its BOM for Structuring. But before creating equipment BOM we need to create Material master.
