The SAP Fiori app "Create Technical Object" (F1643) is designed to streamline the creation of functional locations and equipment. During the creation process for a new functional location, the app provides several integrated functions. Users can directly define the object's classification and assign characteristic values. They can also link relevant documents, such as technical drawings or manuals, through the integrated Document Management System (DMS). Furthermore, it is possible to create necessary measuring points and counters to prepare the functional location for condition monitoring and preventive maintenance from the outset.

B. Change a reference location: You can use a reference location as a template to copy data from, but you cannot change the master data of the reference location itself within this creation transaction.

C. Assign a subordinate piece of equipment: Installing equipment onto a functional location is a separate process (e.g., using the "Install Equipment" app) that is performed after the functional location has been successfully created and saved.

"Functional Locations": The documentation on creating functional locations confirms that classification

document assignment

and measuring points are integral parts of the object's master data

which are defined during creation. The installation of equipment is described as a separate business process.
