Add Entries to the /MIAPM/TASK_CNF Table

Steps

1. In the SAP system, run the following transaction: /n/MIAPM/MIPRO.

   The Display IMG screen appears.

   

2. In the tree, expand Configurations In SAP.

3. Select Maintain GE Digital APM Parameters.

   The Meridium Configuration and Connection Parameters Management window appears.

   

4. In the APM Data Source column, enter the APM data source(s) from which and to which you want to transfer data.
5. In the APM Application Server, enter your GE Digital APM Application server(s).

6. Select .

   The Meridium Configuration and Connection Parameters Management window closes.

7. In the Maintain Task Configuration Parameters row, select .

   The Task Configuration screen appears.

   

8. In the APM Data Source list, select the GE Digital APM data source for which you want to identify which Operation values will create which Task records.

   Note: When defining the data sources, you must maintain the value for the App Server field.

9. Select .

   The Display View "Meridium Task Configuration Table": Overview screen appears. The following image illustrates the baseline table in an SAP system whose Client number is 000. Notice that there are two rows: one for Calibration Task records and one for Inspection Task records. This image illustrates a configuration in which Operations with the control key ZMI2 are used to create Calibration Task records, and Operations with the control key ZMI1 are used to create Inspection Task records.

   

10. To specify criteria that will be used to trigger the creation of Calibration Task and Inspection Task records, modify the values in the existing rows, or build on top of the current functionality by adding new rows. This documentation assumes that you are familiar with your SAP data structure and that you know how to define the criteria to achieve the desired result.

11. Select .

    The criteria is saved.

Example

Suppose that the following Task List exists in your SAP System.

Although the list contains three Operations, only the second Operation, INSPECTION, is an inspection task. Therefore, you would want to configure the /MIAPM/TASK_CNF table such that when you run the Work Management Adapter, a GE Digital APM Inspection Task record is created for only that Operation.

The following image illustrates how you might configure the /MIAPM/TASK_CNF table in this scenario.

The first row in this table specifies that the value in the control key field (i.e., the STEUS field) of the Operation must equal ZMI1. In addition, the second row specifies that the description of the Operation (i.e., the value in the LTXA1 field) must be INSPECTION.

The criteria specified for the MI_TASKINSP family in this example creates the condition shown in the following image.

Hint: To access the Condition Value for the <APM Family ID> dialog box, select a cell in the Value column, and then press F4.

The values that you specify in the Group ID column and the Pos column determine how the criteria in each row is arranged within the condition. In this example, each row is assigned to a different group, so the corresponding criteria is placed within different sets of parentheses. Although it is not shown in this example, if multiple rows were assigned to the same group, the value in the Pos column would determine the placement of the corresponding row's criteria within the parentheses.

When you run the Work Management Adapter, GE Digital APM records are created for only the Operations that meet the specified criteria. Continuing with this example, an Inspection Task record is created for only the INSPECTION Operation.
