Consistency Check for Functional Location Data
Definition
In the master records of functional locations, reference is made to many objects, which for their part, were also created in the form of master records in the system. These also can refer to further objects.
When you create a functional location in the system or change certain data in the master record, the system warns you of existing inconsistencies with dialog messages. If , however, you are only displaying the location or do not perform any changes to particular fields over a long period of time, it is possible that data inconsistencies will occur.
Example
In the master record C1-B01 (filtration plant) the cost center 511 is entered. Additionally, the master record refers to the asset 1004711/0001. However, in the master record of the asset, the cost center is 909.
In cases like this, it is advisable to perform a consistency check for the location master record at certain intervals.
