"Functional Location Label"

PM guru's
Please let me know what is the usage of FL label...I have activated labelling system and assigned few labels.... Can i restrict few FL by assigning the FL labels to the User Profiles of  the few of the users so that I can restrict the acess of few FL's to only limited no of user's..
Is there any way out other than this to have authorization restriction for FL's as all the FL's share the same Struct Indicator, maint plant, planning plant and planner group etc...

The first part of your query:
The primary significance of a FL label is the hierarchical representation of your larger Equipments or a Group of Equipments.
Then this helps in retrieving several queries at different levels of the Label.
The fundamentals of a FL are very easy to understand if you go through the PLM manuals or SAP help.
The second part of your query:
About restricting few users to handle selected Functional Locations.
This is very much possible. One method is through Planner Group. i.e., The Planner group you mention in the FL Master.
Exempt this particular Planner Group value in the INGRP field (I_INGRP authorisation object) of the concerned role assigned to that particular user. Your Roles & Authorisations specialists would be able to do this.
I hope you would be making use of this hint.

  • Equipment Not Allowed at Functional Location ( Inst. at FunLoc is selected)

    Hi All,
    I have configure Structure Indicator like XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Now I have maintain functional location label like
    e.g ABCD-EFG XYZ  ( there is a space between G and X) .
    I have already allowed installation of all equipment category to functional locations at configuration. But still system gives me an error like Installing equipment is not allowed at functional location ABCD-EFG XYZ (MSG NO IA0002).
    Now if I select ABCD system is allowing to install equipment at ABCD.
    If space is a special character and i have not maintained S , then why system has created that label, it must throw an error while creating that label.
    Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Anish Ahya

    Equipments can be installed at functional location if the following changes have been made
    1. Configuration for equipment category installation (Already done in your case)
    2.  In the functional location master data in structure tab "equipment installation allowed" should be activated.
    Please allow the equipment installation from functional location master data .

  • Functional Location Structure Indicator

    Hi Gurus,
    I have created a functional location with an incorrect structure indicator. Wanted to know if there is a way out to change it without using the alternative labelling system?
    The current status of the functional location is 'CRTE' (created) & no equipment is installed at this location.
    I have to use the same functional location label therefore have to find a way out to get it changed.
    Aprreciate your responses...
    Thanks,
    Swati

    Swati,
       You will not be able to change the Structure indicator of a FL once its created.
        However if its a brand new FL and noting has yet been assigned(Like equipments) or created (Orders / Notifications) using it and if the FL key satisfies the New Structure indicator (and its the superior FL) You could potentially look at doing a  direct table update using a  custom program.

  • Problem when Indicator for Alt. labelling for functional location activated

    Dear Experts,
    In our test system, i had activated alternative labelling for functional lcation for an interface with Locations in ISU.
    After i activated it the entire labelling for functional locations got changed to some arbitrary sustem generated number. For a sample -?0100000000000000142. Is there a ways i can retrieve the original names back. We have reactivated it to inactive again.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Boby Mathew

    Hi,
    Once alternative labelling is active, the previous functional location number (IFLOT-TPLNR) and OBJNR become a internal number. The visible location labels are stored in table IFLOS (Field STRNO).
    How easy it is to revert to status 1-Inactive depends on the existance of IFLOS records. If there are no IFLOS records it should be possible to just deactivate via OIPU transaction - Uncheck the 'alt label active' flag - Save.
    Where IFLOS records exist it means functional locations have already been created while the switch was active. These functional locations must be archived. See the full instructions for this process in note [359186|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/359186]. It's a old note but is still valid for all current releases.

  • Alternative labelling for Functional locations

    Hi All,
    I wanted to know if i activate Alternative labelling for Functional locations, does it affect system performance. Also is it worthwhile to activate?
    Kind Regards
    Emanuel

    Hi,
    No, it will not have any impact on system performance. Alternative labelling offers you the possibility to have multiple labelling systems so a functional location can be known by different names by different parts of your organization. If you have a need for this then it would be useful otherwise probably not.

  • Alternate labelling for functional locations

    Hi PM Experts,
    Does anyone know how to go about using "Alternate labelling for functional locations".
    We currently use a GIS code for our description of our FLOC's, the problem is that the users cannot see the address of the FLOC.
    I dont know if the Alternate labelling for functional locations will work or if there is another option available.
    Kind regards

    Thanks.
    It is maintained in the FLOC. The main reason we need the address is when we print out a work order. It displays the FLOC ID but we need the address to be printed out on the order.

  • Functional location historical alternative label

    hi friends'
    is there a way to delete or replace an historical alternative lable for functional location.
    thanks
    Ronen

    hi friends'
    i think  found the sulution for that.
    historical alternative lableing can be reused by using tranzaction IL10.
    you put the alternative lable and run the tranzaction.
    the lable is free again.
    best reguards

    When I set up Words with Friends on my Fire it asked for my username and password which from a previous reply to my inquiry above stated that the S 3 doesn't store due to privacy issues. I have tried all my usual combinations of usernames and passwords and my Fire won't let me access the game as it keeps telling me that one or the other is not correct. I have deleted the app from my Fire and re-downloaded it but have the same error comes up. I have accessed the Words with Friends support both on my phone and their website but there is no live chat. I might have to take both to a Verizon store. Also, my Fire won't let me access the game without a correct username and password. To say that I am frustrated would be an understatement as well I have tried everything I can think of with no luck! Thanks for any help you can give!
    Did you use facebook to log in? 
    Verizon will not be able to help you retrieve any of the information you need.  You will have to contact Zynga.

    Hi,
    I think there's all details in my question.
    You answer is right only if I need to know the functional location at AUFNR level.
    Is not my case, I need this information at sales order level.

  • FM for characterstic value of a function location (asset)

    Hi All,
    Can any one please tell me the FM module to be used for finding the characterstic value for a given characterisctic name of a function location in IL03 (classification).
    I have tried using BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS, but it is not yielding the desired results.
    Thanks in advance
    Deepti

    Hi,
    I don't know why you are not getting the proper reult.
    BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL iis uesd to get both character and numeric values back form the classes.
    Check this:
    LV_OBJECT = I_TPLNR.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL'
    EXPORTING
    OBJECTKEY = LV_OBJECT
    OBJECTTABLE = 'IFLOT'
    CLASSNUM = 'Z_DEPOT'
    CLASSTYPE = '003'
    TABLES
    ALLOCVALUESNUM = WT_ALLOCVALUESNUM
    ALLOCVALUESCHAR = WT_ALLOCVALUESCHAR
    ALLOCVALUESCURR = WT_ALLOCVALUESCURR
    RETURN = IT_RETURN.
    Furthermore i have a list of BAPI. [Try this link|http://www.saptechies.com/sap-bapi-list/].
    May it helps you.
