Hi SAP Gurus,
We are an Oil & Gas Company running SAP R/3
4.6B. Modules implemented
include FI/CO/AM/PM/MM/TM. At present we are
implementing SAP DMS (Document Management System).
In our Refinery area, our plant operators will like to have access to documents which give them among other things, the operating and maintenance procedures for the various processing units/equipment. Also, included here, will be the operating conditions, startup procedures and shutdown procedures for the various pieces of critical equipment.
The main challenge we are facing is providing
a friendly front end from which an end user can navigate (drill down) to
the required document. My main question to you Gurus out there is : "What
are my options in providing a user-friendly interface to my end users ?"
The document referred to here will be, for example, the operating procedure
for a processing unit. From
here the user may want go to a system/sub-system
within the unit, then to a piece of equipment, then to the operating condition
document for that piece of equipment.
Any help/suggestions will be welcomed.
Regards

Hi,
Refer to your query on Document management system.
We have implemented DMS(In SAP R/3 4.6 b) in BHEL-Valves plant,Tiruchy,India
extensively.
In your case, the Operating procedures can also
be addressed in DMS. You need to create a document type and create all
the documents in this document type.To facilitate reference of documents
in a structured way, Document structure ( BOM) can be made use of. By this
method we can drill down and identify the sub documents. For ex.You need
to create documents using CV01N for
1.For the main operating procedures
2.For the sub system 1
3.For the sub system 2
4.For the sub system 3
5.For the sub system 4 and so on.
These sub system documents are to be linked to
the main document as a structure by T Code CV11. These can be changed/displayed
by T Code CV12 &CV13.
