List of Hazardous Substances for Fire Department 

Use

With this function, you produce an inventory list of hazardous substances for the fire department containing all the important data. This data includes R and S phrases, the water pollution class, the state of matter, and the storage location and storage quantity of the hazardous substance. This enables the fire department to fight fires safely, and helps to prevent accidents caused by the use of the wrong extinguishing agents.

SAP emphasizes that this function is only an example for the output of a fire department list. SAP does not guarantee that the fire department list produced contains all data that is required by the laws in a particular jurisdiction, for example, the European Seveso II Directive (96/82/EC).

Features

As the requirements for the data that must appear in the fire department list are different from country to country and company to company, you can adapt the fire department list in Customizing to suit your needs as follows:

●      In Customizing for the Hazardous Substance Master under Specify Text Types and Specify Numeric Value Types, you can specify from which fields and in which order the system is to take hazardous substance data to appear in the fire department list. Under Specify Text Types you can also specify for each relevant field whether the text information that exists as phrases is to be listed as phrase texts or phrase codes.

●      In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, you can use the Business Add-In (BAdI) Inventory List of Hazardous Substances for Fire Department to adapt the fire department list to suit your requirements in more detail.

Before the fire department list is displayed, you can specify the following:

●      The warehouse for which the fire department list is required

●      Storage types and fire-containment sections for which the hazardous substance data is output

If you do not enter a storage type or fire-containment section, the system determines the data for all storage types and all fire-containment sections in the warehouse.

●      Unit of measure in which the hazardous substance data is listed

If you do not enter a unit of measure, the system uses the default unit for the warehouse.

In the standard system, the system outputs the fire department list to a table and creates a row for each hazardous substance per storage type and fire-containment section selected. Hazardous substances are products for which the Haz. Sub. Strg-Rel. indicator is set in the product master in the Storage view. For each hazardous substance, the system lists the following data from left to right:

...

       1.      Product data, storage data, and stock data

       2.      Data from the fields for which you entered a sort sequence for the fire department list in the Sort field in the IMG activity Specify Numeric Value Types

       3.      Data from the fields for which you entered a sort sequence for the fire department list in the Sort field in the IMG activity Specify Text Types
