PM and PP integration

[dmitryb]

Hi All.

We need to run integration between PM Order AND Production Work Center.
Production Work center in our case is a lathe or set of lather of identical types.
Periodically lather must be stoped for Maintenance and Production process must see that lather is stoped Maintenance and don't use it resources.

The integration works perfectly when one Work Center is only one lather.
We put Production Work Center into the field "Work center" of PM Order, Set the "system conditions" is not in operation, Put Oder in process AND we can see (in trans. CM50) that the PM Order loads Production Work Center (lather) so the PP Order will not use this Work Center at the period of Maintenance.

Problems come into existence when Production Work Center is a set of several of lathers. For these Work Centers we set Number lathers to the field " Number of individual capacities" of Working Center Capacity: Header.

If one Production Work Center have Capacity of 24H (Operating time) and "No. of indiv. cap." is 4 (4 lathers) then Full Capacity of Work Center is 96H.
PM Order can't loads only one individual capacity (Lather) of Work Center. It always load All Capacityies and take all 96H (A day) of Work Center.
Is it possible to force PM Order load (take) only one capacity of Work Center so we will show that we take only one lather for Maintenance.
