First of all you have to create a maintenance plan via menu (Plant maintenance -> preventive Maintenance -> Maintenance planning -> Maintenance plans -> create -> Strategy plan.)

Or use transaction IP42

After creating the Maintenance plan you have allotted a Maintenance plan Number.

After that,

Go to Scheduling

Via Menu  (Plant maintenance -> Preventive Maintenance -> Maintenance planning -> Scheduling for Maintenance plans -> Schedule.)

Or use transaction code IP10

In the initial screen of scheduling you have to enter the Maintenance plan Number that is required to be scheduled.

After selecting the relevant maintenance plan

Press Enter to continue

Pressing the start button or F9 starts scheduling.

An error can appear in case if counter is newly created and there is no reading exists. In this case, create a measuring document.

After you press start a dialog box will appear u have to enter the start date.

After entering the cycle start date the status is shown as NEW Start Save to call which means that Scheduling has started but on hold until saved. 

You can save at this point. Enter the scheduling transaction again. Now press the schedule Overview list button, for scheduling overview. This shows current reading and next reading on which maintenance will be due. You can also enter any manuals calls in the manual calls tab. In the maintenance plan scheduling parameters tab, the call horizon percentage and scheduling period entered in the maintenance plan. In the Maintenance plan additional tab, some additional information is displayed. The next step is to save the current work done.
