Plant Maint t-code IL06

Is anyone familiar with IL06? Trying to understand why it won't recognize and copy functional location data I can see in the system? What functional location data conditions must be satisfied in order for IL06 to pull/copy data?

Hi,

You need to check the data origin of the relevant fields IL02 - Edit - Data origin. Only fields which are flagged as inherit from superior functional location would be filled from the upper level. See also note [556388|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/556388] that explain the additional extended data transfer.

Thanks Paul, I believe that clinches it.

Purpose of IL06 is

Use this procedure if a change was made to an upper functional location and the lower functional location and/or equipment did not inherit the change.

Trigger

Perform this procedure when you need to correct a lower functional location and/or equipment when the upper functional location was changed but the lower functional location and/or equipment did not. *One of the reasons this might occur is if someone is in change mode within the functional location or equipment master record while the upper functional location record is being changed.*Processing

Before beginning the task, review/perform the following:

· Changes to functional location are generally executed via transaction IL02. An example of a change to a functional location that you would want to extend to all lower functional locations and associate equipment might be the Location field on the Organization tab or the Name and Address fields on the Structure tab. Use this transaction if you receive a message, after changing a superior functional location, that some data could not be changed because it was "locked" by another user

· You need to specify which functional location needs to be updated with the changes made to their superior functional location
