&lt;h1&gt;SAP Alternative Labeling System for Functional Location&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;div&gt;SAP Plant Maintenance provides a function that allows multiple alternative labels (unique naming schemes) for Functional Locations.&amp;nbsp; The decision to use alternative labeling applies to the entire SAP system: this function must not be activated or deactivated without careful planning.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Impact on all SAP adapters&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;div&gt;The Alternative Labeling function affects which value is chosen to represent the FLOC&amp;#39;s underlying identity in the XML messages sent back and forth through AssetWise Interoperability.&amp;nbsp; Every reference to any FLOC in every single adapter must use the correct label.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If the SAP PM function of alternative labeling is activated, every adapter must populate the underlying unique identifier in the Segment&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;IDinInfoSource&amp;quot;, while using the human-visible FLOC number for the Segment&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;ShortName&amp;quot;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If alternative labeling has not been activated, the adapters must populate the FLOC number in the Segment&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;IDinInfoSource&amp;quot; as well as putting the FLOC number in the Segment&amp;#39;s &amp;quot;ShortName&amp;quot;.&lt;/li&gt;
