Use
With this function you can link a work area with an object in another SAP application (integration object). When you create the link, a reference to the data stored under the integration object is created. This means that you can also make information relevant for the work area but not managed in Industrial Hygiene and Safety available in work area management. For example, you can use the assignment of a storage location to determine stock data and movement data for a material that is assigned to an agent and transfer the data to the amounts for the agent.
