Dear Kashimawo,
Since you are not interested in activating LAM, we have to create as a point asset.
There is an alternate solution which is not straight. You have to divide this linear asset to discrete sections depend on GIS coverage.
Let us take the example of linear pipeline of 1000KM long, and each 100 KM there is GIS sensors.
We can create this 1000KM long pipeline as a point asset. Then each section of 100KM shall be created as sub equipment to to this main equipment.
Now the GIS in each 100KM, shall be integrated to the corresponding sub equipment.
So the maintenance activities will be performed on this sub equipment.
This is not the right way but alternatate way to achieve.
But i would personally suggest to activate LAM & Integrate GIS to SAP.
Which is the correct & complete solution.
