Functional Location

This document provides information about technical objects in SAP Plant Maintenance (PM), including functional locations and equipment. It discusses how to structure functional locations using a hierarchy defined by a structure indicator. Equipment can be installed at functional locations, and its installation times are monitored from both the functional location and equipment views. Bills of material are also used to structure technical objects and plan spare parts for maintenance orders and tasks.
