Materials required can be connected to PM actions by creating a line with necessary part and quantity in the Work list/Materials tab of the PM Action windows.

As mentioned in F1 documentation It is possible to configure the system to automatically create demands from the PM actions. 

Thus Inventory part demands created from the PM action's maintenance plan lines are available to be queried from the Inventory Part Availability Planning window. 

How to do this configuration setup, in the system?

PM material requirements for inventory parts
-create an inventory part
-set the "PM Inventory Demand Horizon' in Site/Maintenance (period you want to publish demands)
-create a PM and add work list/material with the inventory part created. 
-Activate the PM
-Now you should see 'Yes' in 'Inventory Part Demand Published' flag in PM/Maintenance Plan for the lines with demands published
- if you select the material line there is an RMB/command to 'Inventory Part Availability Plannig'

Hi Priyanka,

Thank you for the answer, and if user does not need to show PM action> work list>material as a demand in inventory part availability Planning window, how can we configure it. 

Setting a date to negative is practicable? Is there any other way than it

you can set  "PM Inventory Demand Horizon” to 0 (zero). Then you will not get the demands for the future MP lines. But this parameter is site dependent.

But when we select zero, it will count maintenance planning lines which are due before sys date. And those lines appeared with demands in IPAP window. therefore only add negative value (ex;-1000) worked, but it depends.
