Definition

Functional Location:
 The business object functional location is an organizational unit within Logistics that structures the
maintenance objects of a company according to functional, process-related or spatial criteria.
A functional location represents the place at which a maintenance task is to be performed.

 A functional location represents system area at which an object can be installed. Objects that can be
installed at functional locations are called pieces of equipment in the SAP System .

The following applies to functional location master records:

 You define and manage each functional location in the Plant Maintenance (PM) component in a


separate master record.

 You can build up a separate maintenance history for each functional location.

 The labels for functional locations are structured hierarchically. You can specify their structure
according to your own company criteria.

 Using hierarchical labels, your company can easily represent systems or operational structures from
a functional perspective. The hierarchical structure of functional locations can therefore represent the
interrelations of the operational functions within a system.

 Each hierarchy level of the functional location labels represents a given level of detail in the description
of the system.
